Our buses
Heralding the advent of luxury touring in Kanazawa and the Hokuriku Region, Sainokaze’s deluxe seats with huge legroom and spectacular windows provide exceptional views and comfort.
The concept was conceived by the blending traditional arts, crafts and culture which characterize Kanazawa with the interests of modern travel.
Sainokaze evokes the beauty of impermanence and change through the four seasons of Japan.
Traditional Japanese design
Kaga Yuzen is a Japanese dyeing technique used in kimonos which features motifs such as flowers and birds making use of the five colors of Kaga known as Kaga Gosai.
Local Kaga Yuzen artist Hitoshi Maida designed the bus using this technique to incorporate symbols which represent Kanazawa such as the Yukitsuri and the emblem of the Maeda family, who ruled Kanazawa during the feudal period.
Ventilation System
