I was guided efficiently through the famous spots in Kanazawa in a short amount of time. Additionally, at places like Kenrokuen, I appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as entering through the lord's entrance. It was a very fulfilling half-day. Thank you very much.短時間で効率良く金沢の名所をご案内いただきました。
また、例えば兼六園では殿様の入場口から入園するなど、それぞれの場所に合わせた演出までご配慮いただき、とても充実した半日でした。
本当にありがとうございました。

We requested a tour of Kanazawa City for our family of four. Despite the unfortunate bad weather, we were kindly picked up by a female driver. We were able to enjoy indoor attractions such as Omicho Market, the Samurai House, the Prefectural Library, and the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art. From the car, we could also view Kenrokuen Garden, Kanazawa Castle ruins, and the tea house district without getting wet from the rain.

Additionally, we were guided to a soba restaurant located on Utat…

Additionally, we were guided to a soba restaurant located on Utatsuyama, which we would have never found on our own, and we thoroughly enjoyed the delicious soba. Our entire family was very satisfied. I believe using a sightseeing taxi is a more efficient and cost-effective way to explore places where you lack local knowledge.
家族4人で金沢市内観光をお願いしました。あいにくの悪天候にもかかわらず、親切な女性ドライバーさんに送迎して頂けて、近江町市場、武家屋敷、県立図書館、21世紀美術館など屋内で楽しめる所を中心に、車窓からは兼六園と金沢城跡と茶屋街を雨に濡れずに見学できました。
更に、自分たちだけではとてもたどり着けないような卯辰山にある蕎麦屋さんに案内して頂けて美味しいお蕎麦を堪能して、家族全員が大満足でした。
土地勘の無い所の観光は観光タクシーを使った方が効率よく見て回れてお得だと思いました。

The driver was very friendly, and I was able to enjoy Kanazawa with peace of mind. The driving was excellent! They provided a thorough explanation of the city and its highlights. I was able to sightsee comfortably and at a relaxed pace. I would definitely like to request the same driver next time. Thank you very much!ドライバーさんは、とても親戚で、安心して、ザ金沢を楽しめました。運転も、さすが!でした。街の説明や見どころも、しっかり伝えてくださいました。無理なく、ゆったりと観光できました。また次回も、同じドライバーさんに、ぜひともお願いしたいくらいです。ありがとうございました!

We had a wonderful trip to Kanazawa with eight classmates using two cars. Thank you for making the reservation for Myoryuji Temple (Ninja Temple); it was a great help. We learned about the tree growing inside the "Fuji toshi" house in the Higashi Chaya District. It was a fantastic opportunity to experience such rich history. It turned out to be a very good trip. Thank you!同窓会8名で2台の車で金沢観光させていただきました。妙立寺(忍者寺)の予約をしていただきありがとうございました。大変助かりました。ひがし茶屋街の「藤とし」家の中から生えている木を教えていただきました。素敵な歴史に触れることができました。とても良い旅になりました。ありがとうございました。

Kanazawa historical tour by taxi

We had booked this 5 hour tour for when our ship was docked in Kanazawa in April 2017. Our taxi driver was Mai.
It rained the entire day but Mai proved to be a very good driver and guide. She arrived at the port promptly and had umbrellas for those who did not have their own. We were a group of 4 who included a 90 year old and she was very considerate of all our needs. She stopped/ parked close by the sights we wanted to see and returned promptly when we phoned her and wanted to be picked up.…

She stopped/ parked close by the sights we wanted to see and returned promptly when we phoned her and wanted to be picked up. This tour was conducted at our own pace - how long we spent at each stop was up to us.
We also requested a stop at a supermarket to buy a few items and Mai happily obliged.

Mai had good English and was delightful.

We would like to do this tour with Mai again one day, hopefully when it is not raining! However the sights we saw were beautiful and the cherry blossom could not have been better.
