A one-day tour starting from Kanazawa Station (or from your hotel if it is near the station or central area of the city), followed by the gold leaf experience, a visit to Omicho Market, a quick stop at Oyama Shrine and then a make-your-own-sushi roll for lunch. In the afternoon you will have a choice between three different routes: main sights, samurai/ninjas or the arts. When you meet up with the guide in the morning you can let them know what you want to do! See below for more details on each choice.
