Explore the main streets and hidden, quite back streets with a local English-speaking guide with fascinating stories. You will learn how Kanazawa Geiko lived in the districts in the past, and how the present-day Kanazawa Geiko carry on the tradition.


You will receive a guide-system receiver with earphones, which will enable you to hear the voice of the English-speaking guide clearly, even on a busy street.
