Highlights

This isn’t just a stroll through cherry blossoms—it’s a personalized journey through Kanazawa’s most beautiful spring spots, guided by a local who knows where the sakura bloom brightest beyond the usual paths. From serene gardens to quiet riversides, your host shares stories, local tips, and spontaneous moments that make the experience feel like exploring with a friend.


You’ll also pause for a traditional Japanese picnic beneath the blossoms—a seasonal ritual enjoyed by locals during hanami. Relax with a hand-prepared bento or sushi set, sweets, and drinks while soaking up the fleeting beauty of the season.


After booking, you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, we’ll match you with a like-minded host who’ll reach out directly to suggest a flexible, personalized itinerary shaped around your pace and preferences.

    Begin your personalized cherry blossom journey with a local host who knows exactly where Kanazawa shines during sakura season. Your route will be carefully curated around peak bloom locations and your unique interests—balancing cultural context with tranquil hanami moments. At some point during your walk, you’ll pause for a traditional Japanese picnic beneath the blossoms—a cherished seasonal ritual. Your host will select a peaceful garden or riverside location where you’ll enjoy a beautifully prepared bento box or shared sushi platter, Japanese sweets, and two drinks.
