Itinerary Details

Why This Journey is Exclusive

Immerse yourself in a 1-night, 2-day itinerary tailored to the serene nights of Kanazawa's historic Higashi Chaya District, where the atmosphere of the Edo period still lingers. Stay at Maki no Oto Kanazawa, an exclusive machiya-style auberge limited to just four rooms. Guided by the inn's owner, who maintains strong local connections, you will gain special entry to a prestigious ochaya (teahouse) that is normally strictly closed to first-time visitors. Spend a luxurious evening entertained by elegant geisha with the beautiful melodies of the shamisen and traditional ozashiki games.
