Kenrokuen Gardens & Omicho Market

Enjoy the perfect half-day tour of historic Kanazawa. You'll have ample opportunity to explore the three top highlights of the city with an emphasis on history, beauty and the hustle and bustle of a traditional market. Begin with Kenrokuen Garden, one of the three most beautiful gardens in Japan, from the island pond with its iconic lantern statue to the winding pathways that lead to arched bridges. Resplendent with color and texture, this masterful landscape is sure to enchant. Then step back 500 years in time during a visit to Kanazawa Castle Park. Marvel at the graceful gates and turrets, the strong masonry walls and the encircling moat. For a change of pace, browse bustling Omicho Market. With over 170 shops and stalls it's no wonder it was dubbed the 'Kitchen of Kanazawa'. Back in time for lunch onboard, you'll look back on a wonderful time in a wondrous place.
