Saya was the best!! She showed us so much around Kanazawa, so much more than we had expected. First stop we had a lot of fresh sashimi and good food at the Omicho market, and then a quick snack on the way to the Historic Chaya district, where Saya shared a lot of history about the geisha tradition and also the Shinto religion. We had a lot of fun and regret that we didn’t do this T the start of our trip in Kanazawa so we know what to eat for the rest of our time here!
Fun and interesting food tour

Even though it is crowded, the walk through the market slows you down and gets you thinking about what you are seeing. The Gion district needs explanation so that you understand the history, customs and the need (as tourists) to display respect. Our guide Saya was able to provide a useful narrative as we transitioned from different quarters and features. The tasting in the market was generous though a plate would have been useful.
Nice tour with Saya
