Great Kyoto experience with great guide - This is one of the best tours we’ve been on! Kyoto is a beautiful city and Takashi is an amazing guide. He’s very friendly and funny and makes sure everyone feels welcome and has a good time. He will answer any questions you have about Kyoto and Japan and anything else that you’re curious about. I highly recommend taking this tour and enjoying a fun Kyoto experience.

Best local Kyoto tour - Natsuki was a wonderful local guide giving us a great tour of the city. We learned so much history, ending the night with a long lovely dinner. I highly recommend this tour company!

Delicious food and lovely company in a relaxed restaurant - Our guide was lovely company. We were exhausted from a long day of walking when we arrived, and debated opting out of the experience. Instead we walked straight to the restaurant so we could sit down, skipping the first hour of walking and street food tasting. Our guide was most accommodating, calling ahead to the restaurant to make it work. The dishes at the restaurant, small portions designed for sharing, were delicious, and we enjoyed her company.

Fun night in Kyoto - This was a wonderful walking tour. We went to many of the special places of Kyoto. The tour guide was very friendly, spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about the places we went to. We sampled some foods that we had never had, even though we have been to Japan many times. We went through a beautiful temple with gardens. We finished at an Izikaya that was definitely “locals only”. The menu was in Japanese only & our guide ordered a large variety of foods, many we tried for the first time. Overall it was an excellent experience.

Highlight of our Kyoto trip - Our evening with Takashi was the highlight of our Kyoto trip! It was refreshing to have a Japanese guide from the area. We had an awesome time walking through Gion and visiting temples and shrines. His highlights were off the beaten path and were not overrun with people. We finished at a standing izakaya with amazing food that we never would have thought to order. It was delicious! We greatly enjoyed Takashi's hospitality and the intimate itinerary he designed for this tour.

Great tour and wonderful Sake - Takashi was a great tour guide. He is very fluent in English and showed us food wonders of Kyoto that we would’ve normally not seen.

Great guide but not what I expected - Our tour guide Natsuki was delightful and made the evening worthwhile. However, be aware that the label on the tour is misleading. A food walking tour means to me multiple stops tasting different foods along the way. It’s an evening walking tour with dinner at the end. I certainly was not expecting a stop at a Shinto shrine along the way. Again, the guide was great and so we enjoyed the tour.
