Wagyu Beef & Sake Pairing Foodie Tour in Tokyo
From$26,400
3h 30m
Tokyo, Japan
Full description
The tour begins at Shimbashi Station, known as the site of Japan's first railroad running in 1872.
First, your local tour guide will take you to a casual bar run by Nara Prefecture, which is known as the "birthplace of sake". Here, enjoy a 30-minute all-you-can-drink sake tasting! The selection of more than 20 different types of sake, which changes daily, is truly varied, ranging from authentic sake made with "Bodai-moto," the yeast that originated in Shorakuji, the birthplace of clear sake, to dry, sweet, slightly sparkling, cloudy, and fruit sake.
On the second stop of the tour, your guide will take you to a teppanyaki restaurant in Ginza. You will be greeted by a skilled griller in front of a heated Teppan.
Serving only the highest quality A5-ranked Wagyu beef, the restaurant not only offers a wide variety of Wagyu beef, but also seasonal soups, seasonal Wagyu beef dish, garlic rice, miso soup, and special condiments and sauces as part of the course menu.

Wonderful Wagyu Dinner
Yuki was a great host, friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. We tried a wide array of sakes, very different flavors, which made for a fun tasting. I attended with my 14 yr old. He was offered a selection of soft drinks instead. (This trip is totally teen appropriate.) The Wagyu dinner was amazing, deliciously prepared. We both enjoyed dinner and came away very satisfied and happy.
