Tasty and friendly food tasting evening
Tak was a very friendly guide who devoted time to everyone in the (small) group. We tried some local delicatessen and sampled some genuine Japanese food. We had a very enjoyable evening. Thanks very much, Tak.

Sake and Shrine Tour
We had a fabulous guide in Atsuko. She was the best!! Since it was just my husband and I she tailored the experience around what we wanted to see and do. She took us to a very non touristy yakitori restaurant for lunch which was fabulous. We really wanted to see the Fushimi Inari shrine so she changed our itinerary and took us there. It was great having her with us as it would have been somewhat difficult to navigate on our own. In addition to her extensive knowledge about the sake, the food and the shrine, Atsuko was a very warm, friendly person who spoke excellent English. We would love to tour with her again.

Absolut empfehlenswert
Kyoto Casual Pontocho Evening Food Tour: Wir haben unsere Tour mit Noboru gemacht. Er hat uns viele Informationen zum Nachtleben in Kyoto und zum Stadtviertel gegeben. Wir konnten sehr viel von ihm lernen. Das Essen war ausgezeichnet und auf die Vegetarier wurde Rücksicht genommen. Wir hatten sehr viel Spaß und würden es immer wieder buchen. Arigato Gozaimasu Noboru! :-)

Delicious and delightfully educational!
Absolutely the best food tour I’ve ever been on! Our guide, Lin, shared expert insights not just about the region’s cuisine but also its rich history and the culture of the geisha district. She answered all our questions—and then some. I haven’t laughed so much in ages while chatting about different cultural norms!

Fun evening bar tour in Kyoto - Luxury Sake, Whisky and Cocktail Tour
Had a great time with our guide Sebastian. Was our first evening in Kyoto and a perfect introduction to night life in the Old district of Kyoto. Sebastian was knowledgeable and a lot of fun with good insights into Japanese life. Definitely recommend.

Incredible experience and elite tour guide!
We had THE best time on the Harajuku Food Tour with Ema! Honestly a highlight of our visit to Japan! It’s so cool to be with someone who lives in and knows the place sooooo well and went over and above to make sure we had an amazing time. I’m vegetarian and we were able to visit place that easily catered for me and my family too without compromising on the full Japanese experience. So much fun so cool. 11/10 recommend Ema and this tour! TYSM Ema Xxx

Great Market Visit and Food Tour
Our tour started in the morning and we visited the market. We learned so much and tried so many things. Jacob our guide was great and spoke perfect English. We had tuna sushi cut fresh in front of us (the best we have ever had). We tried fresh oysters, beef sashimi and many other things. The tour ended with a picnic to enjoy all of the the items we saw in the market. Great way to try many things.

An amazing evening spent tasting very good and delicious Japanese local cuisine with a great group of people.
Thank you for a guided culinary and walking experience that introduced myself to the history and traditions of Japan through its local cuisine. I had a lovely evening tasting the different types of Japanese local food at popular restaurants and street food stalls. We were a small group of 6 people who shared a passion for food. The tour guide Ike was an expert on local cuisine and entertained us by incorporating stories and local insights as we went along.

Tour gastronómico de 10!
Hicimos un tour gastronómico por la tarde con Sebastian y fue todo un acierto. Nos enseñó la vida de tarde/noche por este lado de la ciudad, nos contó un montón de curiosidades y nos llevó a probar cocina típica que estaba increíble. La verdad es que es uno de los mejores tours que hemos hecho.

Fun Time Eating in Osaka.
We had the most enjoyable experience with Ken on our food walking tour in Osaka along with another couple from the UK. He had a great sense of humor and treated us like we were all old friends. The different food options were great and they were definitely choices that none of us ever had before.

Great energy and lovely guide
We did the Pontocho Food Tour in Kyoto last week and had a really great time. ‘H’ was our guide and what a lovely, funny, knowledgeable man he is. We learned so much about Kyoto and, in particular, the Pontocho and Gion Shirakawa districts. We loved the food and drinks and it was so good to experience that part of the city on a busy Saturday night.

Great experience and highly recommend Saika to lead the tour thru the Shibuchika District.
Saika was our food tour guide and she was awesome. She showed us how to eat sushi like the Japanese and not with sticks but by hand. She took us to some really nice family owned restaurants where the food was awesome.

Kawaii Tour Harajuku
Mein Mann und ich haben eine Food Tour in Harajuku, Tokio, gemacht. Unsere Guide Serena machte die Erfahrung für uns beide unvergesslich. Die Tour führte uns durch die Straßen von Harajuku, wobei wir nicht nur kulinarische Highlights, sondern auch historische und modische Hintergründe erklärt bekamen. Wir konnten zahlreiche lokale Spezialitäten probieren insgesamt fünf verschiedene Orte standen auf unserem Programm. Besonders gut gefiel mir, dass wir auch süße Leckereien testen konnten. Jeder Halt war ein kleines Highlight und zeigte uns die Vielfalt der japanischen Küche auf eine ganz besondere Weise. Insgesamt war die Food Tour eine perfekte Mischung aus Genuss, Kultur und Entdeckungen. Ich würde diese Tour jederzeit wieder machen.

Wonderful food and neighborhood tour.
My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful day with our tour guide Ully. It was a joy to spend the day with her talking about not only Japan and its food and culture, but also about family and life in general. She is quite young chronologically but an “old soul” in terms of spirit and insight. Her knowledge of the local food and culture of the region was impressive and gave us a much better understanding and appreciation for the food of the region and how history helped to shape it. Thank you, Ully, for making us feel like we were old friends and family that you were taking on a private food tour!
