    Beautiful Wakayama Castle

    Janette_L, Oct 2025
    Noriko was a knowledgeable and engaging tour guide for our Wakayama castle tour. We gained so much by having her guide us - not only learning about the castle but also about Japanese life. At the end of our tour, not only she did she give us restaurant recommendations, she took us to the restaurant and helped us to get seated and start ordering!

    Thank you for joining the Wakayama Castle Town Tour. I'm very glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour with me. I myself enjoyed showing around Wakayama castle and Japanese life. If it helped you understand Japan and Japanese people, it would be great pleasure to me. Thank you!!! Noriko

    This is the perfect tour...

    This is the perfect tour to end my trip to Japan! It was so relaxed and my guide, Noriko, paced it well, often stopping to answer my questions about the history of the castle, Japan and to take in the sights of this wonderful place. I was lucky enough to see one tree in the castle in full blossom to kick off the cherry blossom season and to ride a boat in the inner moat.

    Thank you very much for joining my Wakayama tour. I'm glad to know that you enjoyed my tour. It was nice to meet such a wonderful guy on a beautiful day. I enjoyed answering your questions and chatting with you. Please come back to Japan and see me. I'm looking forward to showing Kumano Kodo or Koyasan next time. See you again! Noriko
