Excellent Tour - We had a fantastic day with Rina! Our private tour started in Kanazawa and ended near Toyama. In between we saw the favorite tourist spots we requested. Rina also suggested some other less crowded spots that we enjoyed even more. We really appreciated Rina’s kind and knowledgeable service on our tour.
