Must do foodie tour - This was a fantastic food experience for us (husband and me). Ryo, our foodie tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable about the local food in the Ginza area. We would not have discovered the restaurants that we visited if left to our own devices. We would also not have heard the stories about the restaurants or the chefs. Ryo was super friendly and engaging ( and takes great photos!) We were very grateful for his list of recommended restaurants. I only wish we did this tour at the start of our stay in Tokyo instead of towards the end as we only got to one of his recommendations (best Udon noodles I have had!) This is a tour to put on your 'to do' list for sure. (Photos taken by Ryo).

Good food, good sake, good fun - Amazing food tour! You have to book it! Ryo is so much fun and knows his Japanese food. Everything we tried was delicious or 'oishii'! We learnt a lot about food in Tokyo and he even had recommendations for dishes and places to try outside of Tokyo as we are travelling around a bit.

BEST food tour of our Japan trip! - If you’re considering a food tour, please book this one!!! This was by far the biggest highlight of our Tokyo leg of Japan. Ryo is incredibly kind, fun, knowledgeable and generous as a guide (and now friend!). We spent an entire evening with him on a private food tour, walking around Ginza and trying foods we never would have ordered or known about as British tourists! He took us to restaurants that aren’t open to public/tourists so we could really experience eating like a local. We’re huge foodies so loved picking his brain about Japanese cuisine and even got some home cooking tips! Ryo, thank you so much for a fabulous evening. Our conversations and fun evening really left a print on our hearts and we will remember it forever! Look forward to one day when our paths cross again. Thank you so much.

A Unique and Special Food Experience - We had an amazing food experience with Ryo. His enthusiasm for the local Ginza food scene and traditional local foods made the evening enjoyable and fun. We tried food from local izakayas that we would not have found on our own. It was a very special experience. We would highly recommend this tour.

Fave Bites In Ginza - Ryu (our host) was nothing short of amazing. His knowledge of “underground” eateries, his hospitality and photography was exceptional.
