I am Guide
Hi there! I'm Lucy, your go-to guide in the enchanting city of Kanazawa. One of the things I adore about this place? The joy of exploring its wonders on foot, from its tranquil gardens by day to its lively pulse at night. And don't get me started on the food – simply divine! Strolling through historical sites, diving into the rich stories of the past, or savoring authentic local delicacies, every day here is an adventure. From the buzzing streets of Katamachi to the timeless charm of Higashi Chaya, I've got the inside scoop. Keen to know the magic behind Kanazawa's gold leaf or find that perfect souvenir? I'm your gal! Ready for a fun-filled Kanazawa escapade? Let's go!
Lucy was great! We were a large group with a huge age range (5-79), and one person who couldn’t walk far distances. She worked very hard to find a place that would accommodate us all (the day after Christmas no less!) but that would also us to try the local cuisine. Although we were not able to do the traditional food walking tour- we nonetheless had a wonderful time and got to experience local Kanazawan foods.

Lucy contacted us beforehand to make sure we were happy with her proposed itinerary. She met us at the station and took us downtown by bus before we visited the famous market, the Samurai area (including an old Samurai house), the castle and the beautiful Kenrokuen Gardens. Lucy was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Japan - especially the Samurai period and clearly had come to love the garden in all of its seasons. She was extremely good company and pitched all aspects of the tour to our requirements. It was a wonderful experience.
