Most grateful for the wonderful experience at Kanazawa, first of all I wanted to say thanks to Liam for arranging the Spanish speaking tour guide; it was a pleasant surprise to my friends; Nicola was a refreshing experience, even though he is very young, his kindness and understanding of our limitations was extremely appreciated. He’s very knowledgeable about the history, and enthusiastic about sharing his knowledge. We were transported in a very comfortable manner, and he’s also a very good driver. As a friend and wife, I would like to extend our group gratitude for the amazing time you shared with us, we all fall in love with Japan, and want to return back; you made the difference and we are grateful. Nicola, you left a big smile impress in our hearts, keep smiling and bringing smiles to peoples hearts..Muchas gracias y te deseamos lo mejor para ti y tu familia. 🤗❤️ Sinceramente, Ana Patricia, (Pura Vida), Junior y amigos.

Our guide, Liam, was excellent! He was prompt, very knowledgeable, and easy to understand. He tailored the tour to our priorities, was a good driver, and had a very clean and comfortable vehicle. We visited a gold leaf shop and saw its process, walked through a geisha district, went to the Kenrokuen Garden and nearby Kanazawa Castle Park, and strolled the samurai district. A very full and interesting tour. We would highly recommend Liam.
