Guides were very knowledgeable about the area and even the driver can speak English. It was snowing during our visit. The time given to explore the area was just nice, not too long or too short. The agent was also very helpful to accommodate to our dietary requirements. Recommended.

Aiko was fabulous. She spoke very good English, Spanish, Japanese, and others. She was entertaining and educational making custom materials that enhanced the experience. The tour was a great way to see the village, garden, and gisha district, and to make candy and a gold leaf post card. I recommend the full day optiin. Best way to see it all.

We had a great experience on the Shirakawa-go, Kenrokuen, and Higashi-Chaya tour. The pace was a bit rushed, but it was exactly what we needed to see all the highlights in just one day. We also really appreciated that the tour started and ended exactly on time. Huge thanks to our guide Cesar for a very thorough tour, clear instructions, and helpful sightseeing tips. He did a great job keeping everyone on schedule. Shout-out as well to Ikeda-san, our bus driver, for driving safely despite the heavy snow and for kindly lending us his umbrella. The tour operator was also very responsive to our questions on WhatsApp, which made everything smoother. Overall, a well-organized tour and a great option if you want to cover a lot in one day.

Such a great tour with good enthusiastic guide 小Xi and safe Japanese driver. Big coach was clean and comfortable. The scenery along the way was beautiful. Everything went well. We were very lucky to have a guide who spoke clearly and gave detailed instructions, information and recommendations both verbally and through WhatsApp. The itinerary was excellent with sufficient time at every stop. The tour is self-guided so we enjoyed the flexibility to do what we want and roam around freely based on the many places suggested by 小Xi who WhatsApp the exact location on Google maps to us. He also provided maps and gave food suggestions. We stayed at Hotel MyStays Kanazawa. Rooms are clean and new but very small. Double bed is also very small for two people. Best to ask for twin beds when booking this tour. Breakfast at the hotel was great with a wide spread of local and continental food. Overall we enjoyed this tour very much. Highly recommend this over a day tour to Shirakawago/Takayama.

I had an absolutely brilliant time during this tour! Our tour guide was very insightful, knowledgeable, and knew the locals well! We were able to try some local handmade sweets as well as warm tea for free, while searching for all the little kittens around Inami! Stunning history and views. I'd highly recommend. The transfer for me heading from Kanazawa to Takayama was incredibly easy. They just took my bags to the other bus for me, I didnt have to lift a finger! I'd say the only con for me is booking with Klook, you annoyingly can't just book one ticket so I had to buy 1 adult and 1 child ticket even though it was just me :( so for any solo travellers reading this I'd recommend booking directly with the tour guide company instead for a better deal!

Here’s a polished version you could post as a review: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a wonderful private walking tour in Kanazawa with our guide, Akari. The experience felt truly personalised and we loved being able to shape the tour around our interests. Akari was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and such a delight to spend time with; her eagerness to share insights and answer our questions really deepened our understanding of the culture and sights. Having that context made everything so much more meaningful. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kanazawa!

when booked I expected 3 trains total. the transportation was changed to bus and one train. being a train lover and for the cost I was a little disappointed. that was over shadowed by how wonderful the tour was, the guide, driver, and the experience were exceptional. views were beautiful, train ride was so pretty, guide gave a lot of detailed explanation and pointed out things we would have missed. a highlight was seeing a Serow! the monkeys hid so I didn't see those, but they are often seen. I got tons of fantastic pictures and a very good ramen lunch at the station then some cheese cake that was so fantastic. I can only recommend that this trip is not to be missed. you can't help but have a good time and the guides for this company, I went on 3 experiences with them, and I run tours back home, the guides here are exceptional. the station at both kanazawa and the onsen town have stamps for the collectors. the footbath was a great way to wrap up the onsen town tour.

好,以下是很適合直接貼在 Klook 的英文評論版本(語氣自然、五星感、不過度浮誇): I surprisingly had a wonderful experience on today’s Kanazawa tour. Our guide was extremely humorous, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. He patiently answered all of my questions and turned them into interesting and enjoyable discussions. He also shared many authentic local recommendations — and even take me to a truly local delicious curry! Highly recommend requesting Gary and his professional team. They made the tour memorable and genuinely enjoyable.
