Our guide, Nozoumi, was the most favourite part of our tour. She is so kind, sweet, patient and really knows so much. She answered any question that we had with so much more information. She was truly an excellent guide and an even more wonderful human being.

We had a great full day tour with Mai as our driver/tour guide! Though we were hoping for a snowy Christmas village setting in Shirakawago and takayama, there wasnt any snow yet. But the weather was great! Mai had great smooth driving skills. She was also very kind and patient with us

We had a wonderful experience at Shirakawa go with Mai. At first we were sad when we found out that it was not snowy at the village (as we expected a snowy version). However Mai was wonderful, she brought us to try Hida beef and a nice sake at the village. We extended our tour and had the chance to walk around at the village.

Had a wonderful tour with our excellent guide Nozomi around Kanazawa Geiko area. Very interesting and much background information was provided by a very knowledgeable Nozomi. We ended with a perfect dinner in the Hidden House. To conclude: a great evening!
