Beautiful walk, well-maintained areas. My two boys, aged 11 and 13, enjoyed the place and searching for key points on the map. Recommended.

This tour was amazing. Our guide Yasushi was extremely knowledgeable and so much fun. He was the best. I recommend doing this tour early into your Kanazawa stay, that way during the rest of the trip you will know more of the history of the town and great places to visit. I would recommend this tour to everyone who comes, whether you’re by yourself or with a group.

Had a great time. Our guide Keita took time to give us lots of background info. We did the full day tour that included painting the Daruma and this was a fun activity and a great way to also see parts of Kanazawa. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Great 4.0
The itinerary was very tight, the tour leader was competent, and the driver—an experienced female driver—was very steady. The condition of the bus was a bit old, and the APA Hotel in Kanazawa was located in a remote area, making it difficult to find food after checking in late at night.

It was a wonderful visit and, despite the rain, Toma guided us through the beautiful gardens and the castle, sharing fascinating stories and anecdotes along the way. I highly recommend this guided tour to everyone!

The value for money is good. Breakfast was nice, although we would have preferred more options for tourists. Also, breakfast only starts at 7am. The hotel offers an option to eat at the fish market. The restaurant's quality is very good; it's a good experience.

The hotel is conveniently located with modern and clean decor. The staff are very warm and friendly. The evening roasted green tea experience added extra value to our stay, and the free self-service locker service after check-out was very thoughtful.
