Saijo Sake Brewery English-Guided Walking Tour with Lunch in Hiroshima

Relaxed friendly tour in pretty Saijo town.

Reviewed by: Suzie

Hugh our guide was a really nice friendly guy, we got on really well and he was very informative. Unfortunately we were there in the middle of the Covid 19 virus, so many of the breweries were closed, but we did get some tasting done at 3 breweries. The lunch was amazing, some of the best Sashimi we have ever had and the Hotpot was fabulous!
We still had a very nice time and hope more travellers will take this tour when times are back to normal.

  • Best Sashimi ever!

  • Lovely Hotpot!

Tokyo Food Tour in Harajuku & Omotesando with Kawaii Cute Culture and Sweets

Great for foodies

Reviewed by: Jas

I only knew Harajuku for the gothic-lolita kawaii fashion so it was very interesting to see the back alleys and food places I normally don't see in guidebooks. We got to sample a lot of regional specialities and lots of desserts (my favorite!) Our friendly guide was super knowledgeable and was flexible to cater to our entire group. But be prepared to swim through the crowd and possibly wait on lines for some of the treats.

Tokyo Food Tour in Harajuku & Omotesando with Kawaii Cute Culture and Sweets

Tour for the Tummy

Reviewed by: Open Sesame

Our guide Asami did a great job taking us to places with great eats! She made sure to give us background info about the places we were visiting and even explained Japanese customs and table manners. She also accommodated personal requests (getting specific souvenirs, etc.) which made the tour feel more intimate.

I did expect this tour to feature more Instagrammable food, but it wasn't so much the case. Nonetheless, everything we ate was good. I especially loved the sesame ice cream!

Special 10 Course Kaiseki Dinner in Kyoto's Gion District

Cherry blossom season in Gion followed by an excellent meal

Reviewed by: Gerald Elder

My wife and I greatly enjoyed this tour. Jennifer-san, our guide, did a great job in explaining the Maiko and Geiko (Kyoto preferred name for Geisha) culture while we walked through three of the five Hanamachi (Geiko districts). She showed us tea houses and homes, talked about schooling and careers. She also showed us some of the supporting professional such as teachers, dressers, and hair stylists. We even caught a few glimpses of Maiko headed to work.

As we strolled in the early evening we admired the Cherry trees in blossom and watched the night settle in. Then after a short walk along the river, we had an excellent meal at a small restaurant. Sushi, pickled vegetables, tempura, soup, wagyu beef, pork, sake, and of course - rice.

It was a great experience. Come prepared to walk a bit and to enjoy a variety of Japanese foods.

Afternoon Walking Food Tour in Trendy Shibuya with English-Speaking Guide

Don't miss it!

Reviewed by: Shirley

We thoroughly enjoyed the food tour with Ryo. It is worth doing this tour because we learned about food from different parts of Japan and we went to small restaurants that serve amazing food that wouldn't know otherwise. Ryo was knowledgeable, polite, easy going and fu to be with. We really like him and the tour. Highly recommended, don't miss it!
