Traveler reviews
Great tour!
It was great to do this tour during our first day to Kyoto. The group was very friendly and our guide very kind. The food was excellent and Nishiki, Gion and every places beautiful.
Kyoto food tour
This food tour was amazing! Niro guided us through the Geisha’s area in Kyoto and told us about their journey and history. We then went on to Nishiki food market and got to try a lot of things. We especially liked the cucumber, the crocet and sweet potato fries. We ended the tour at a lunch spot inside a beautiful library and had Gyoza with rice and soup. Would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone who wants to taste some of Kyotos food and get to know more about the city!
Very informative and great way to experience Japanese food and culture.
This is a great way to learn more about the culture along with wonderful, varied Japanese cuisine. Ayu was a wonderful guide!
Great Tour Guide - Chie
Our tour guide was Chie. She was a wonderful guide! Very knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and professional. Every tasting was a great experience. I hope to get more tour guides like Chie.
Chie Exceptional
Chie was exceptional. This was the best tour of our trip. We all loved Chie. She made the tour special because of her personality. Our group really appreciated her. Her pace during the tour was perfect for our group, who are all seniors. She stopped when we wanted to see something along the way. If I could give her 6 Stars, I would definitely do it.
