Anjuliee – United States

Our tour guide was Rina and she was absolutely wonderful, from picking up the bikes to the very end. She provided interesting history and stories in each neighborhood, helped my husband with his kanji practice, and gave us many excellent restaurant and coffee shop recommendations. We loved visiting Kenrokuen and the geisha teahouse districts by e-bike.. The tour was well timed and planned out perfectly. Highly recommend!

Dear Liam, thank you for making our short stay in Kanazawa so much fun! Going around town on an E-bike is a perfect way if seeing all the highlights in a short time. Listing to all the funfacts and history of the town made it all the more worthwhile. We wish you all the best! Kind regards Peter en Tine The Netherlands

Tour Highlights:
1. Starting Point: Kanazawa Station: We'll begin our adventure at Kanazawa Station, a modern architectural marvel and a convenient meeting point. After a brief introduction and e-bike fitting, we'll set off!

2. Higashi Chaya District & Kazuemachi: Pedal through the enchanting Higashi Chaya District, a preserved geisha district with beautifully preserved wooden teahouses. We'll then explore the adjacent Kazuemachi district, another charming area with traditional architecture nestled along the Asano River. Feel the atmosphere of old Kanazawa as you glide through these picturesque streets.  

3. Kenrokuen Garden: Prepare to be mesmerized by Kenrokuen, one of Japan's three most celebrated landscape gardens. Explore its meticulously designed ponds, bridges, and meticulously pruned trees, each element carefully placed to create a harmonious and breathtaking scene.

Savor the delicate flavors of matcha and traditional sweets while learning about the art of tea preparation.  

6. 21st Century Museum, Kanazawa (Pass-by): We'll cycle past the iconic 21st Century Museum, Kanazawa, a contemporary art museum known for its innovative architecture and thought-provoking exhibits. While we won't stop for a full visit on this tour, you'll have the opportunity to admire its unique design.
