Traveler reviews
Great guide, great food
We had a fantastic time. Our guide Yuki was fantastic and knowledgeable about the the history of the area and the food. It was a great night.
Fantastic Food Tour with 3 Stops
Yuki (sp?) was an excellent guide as she lead us to three different restaurants. All 3 were delicious. Be sure to bring an empty stomach
Exceptional
Our initial tour in Kyoto was exceptional, and our guide, Yuki, provided an outstanding experience. The evening was marked by high-quality dining, excellent wine, and highly informative insights.
Amazing guide
Great variety of food that you might not necessarily try otherwise. Nice restaurants. Highlight of the tour was our guide Chihiro. She is a wonderful person who explained everything well and made us laugh. Thank you!!
Loved this tour!
I had a great time with Josh, learning about the history of Kyoto and about sports in Japan. Plus, the food and drinks were spectacular. 10/10 reccomend!
