Great service and adaptability - On our trip to Japan, we had one day to visit Kanazawa. The weather was terrible the day of our tour. Our guide, Jorge, made all possible efforts to adapt our tour to let us experience the city despite the weather conditions. Our guide’s service orientation and adaptability was excellent under the terrible weather conditions we faced. We were able to experience a little bit of Kanazawa, do experiential activities, have a great lunch, and, visit places instead of being sheltered in the hotel.
