Guest Voice: “A Highlight of Our Kanazawa Trip!” (Omicho Market & Higashi Chaya Tour)

Today, we received an amazing review from guests who joined our 2-hour Omicho Market & Higashi Chaya District Tour.
They booked last minute after arriving by train—yet it became one of the biggest highlights of their time in Kanazawa.

If you’re looking for a tour that combines local food, cultural streets, and flexible hosting, this guest voice perfectly explains what you can expect.


⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Guest Review

We booked this two-hour tour with Yuji and Aiko last minute after arriving by train, and it was a highlight of our Kanazawa visit. We explored the vibrant market where they shared fascinating history and used their iPad to show us favorite local dishes and restaurants. Then we visited the beautiful geisha district, wandering charming streets and enjoying a sake tasting where they introduced us to their favorites. A highlight was the 400-year-old pastry shop where we tried their two most famous items and learned about local crab culture. Their knowledge of Kanazawa’s food scene really enriched our experience. What impressed us most was their flexibility and warmth. Despite the rain, they came prepared and adapted seamlessly. When my wife wanted to stop for shopping, they took it in stride. For the price, this tour delivered exceptional value. We learned so much and had a genuinely enjoyable time with these wonderful hosts. We’re already looking forward to returning to Kanazawa!
