This shared tour covered everything we wanted. Loved the old samurai district and local market. Lara was excellent in managing the group and sharing history.

A peaceful and enriching experience in Kanazawa. The stroll through Kenrokuen Garden was a highlight, and Lara provided great context throughout. We were sailing on HAL Westerdam and this was one of the best Kanazawa shore excursions we booked independently.
