My reviews

Our guide Mo spoke excellent English and was very polite and helpful. He knew some great places to visit and it was so relaxing having a local guide us around. We especially loved visiting the Samurai house, Zen gardens, Kenroku-en gardens and Kanazawa pottery shops.

Mo was a delightful guide who showed us around sites in Kanazawa that appealed to us. We didn’t have an easy day, the weather was extremely wet but that didn’t deter Mo. His relaxed approach made us forget the weather and we just enjoyed the sites and learning a side to Kanazawa we wouldn’t have seen without him. Big thanks again Mo. You’ve made our time in Kanazawa unforgettable

Mo was such a good guide to be around! Helps that he lived in Sydney and got our Aussie sense of humour. He showed us spots around the popular areas tourists wouldn’t think to visit. Thumbs up all around.

Mo lived in Australia for a while, and it was like we were hanging out with someone from home. We all got along really well and he showed us the smaller, hidden places Kanazawa has to offer.
