Noto: People and Place, Food and Art; shaped by the mountains and the sea
The Noto Peninsula juts into the Sea of Japan, north from Kanazawa. This tour highlights the diversity of Noto’s natural, cultural, artistic, and culinary attractions.
1. Your private car and guide will meet you at your hotel at 10:00am and drive to Wajima to explore the morning market. Known for its seafood and natural lacquerware, you’ll spend an hour exploring this area and local artisans’ shops.
2. From Wajima drive along the coast to see the community where sea salt has been naturally crafted for centuries. Umishio is still made manually. This industry has sustained generations of a small community on Noto’s northern coast.
3. Lunchtime: Enjoy exquisite dining at the famous L’Atelier de Noto (date permitting).
4. You’ll next venture to Senmaida. An interesting agricultural spot where hundreds of still-tended rice fields rise out of the seaside.
5. Drive back to Chirihama and enjoy cruising along the seashore. If the weather and time’s right, dip your toes in the Sea of Japan.
6. You’ll be back to your hotel at 6:30pm after a day of Noto Adventures.
