Food tour

We had an excellent tour with Mak who was super-informative about the food , culture and history of Japan. We particularly enjoyed the sashimi but all the food we tasted was great. William and Julie.

Shinjuku shenanigans

We had a great time with our tour guide, Haruki. He made the tour so interesting and entertaining. It was fun to be among the sites and sounds of Shinjuku and sample the local food. Haruki really made this an experience.

Super nice

Even during typhoon season, this tour was amazing. The guide Aika was super welcome and lighthearted, and explained all the dishes with patience and which pride for her city we really appreciate it the local food and the small little restaurants. Definitely something worth the money.
