Find some hidden gems! - Meeca was a fantastic tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and took us to many hidden gems that we would never have found on our own. There were several cool little activities for our 7 year old daughter mixed into the tour and she really felt a part of it.

Arigato Food Tour – Asakusa with Ema - Our evening in Asakusa with Ema was honestly one of the highlights of our Tokyo trip. He has such a sweet and calming presence, and he made sure the entire experience felt slow, enjoyable, and perfectly paced. We tasted so many delicious dishes, each one better than the last, and his recommendations were absolutely spot-on. It felt less like a tour and more like walking around with a friend who truly knows and loves the area. Thank you, Ema, for such a memorable and heartwarming night in Asakusa. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

Great Market Visit and Food Tour - Our tour started in the morning and we visited the market. We learned so much and tried so many things. Jacob our guide was great and spoke perfect English. We had tuna sushi cut fresh in front of us (the best we have ever had). We tried fresh oysters, beef sashimi and many other things. The tour ended with a picnic to enjoy all of the the items we saw in the market. Great way to try many things.

Great tour - We had a wonderful time on our food tour guided by Sandra. She was an excellent host who helped us to try some things we might otherwise have missed. She was great with our kids and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her if you are looking for a guide.

Top marks 🥢🍺🍙🍣🍤🍱🇯🇵❤️ - All four of us want to give Wesley a whole hearted 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 review after today’s Tokyo food tour! He took us around the Houzouman temple and environs for sweet and savoury snacks and a delicious lunch and hoppi at [can’t remember the name of the restaurant]. A Californian by birth but an enthusiastic almost-permanent resident of Japan, Wesley was truly delightful, generously sharing his insider knowledge of the city with our group. Arigatou gozaimasu from the Petersen family! 🍺🍙🍤🍣🥢 ps. waiting for the group photos he took or I’d attach those here too!

Underwhelming tour - We were kind of underwhelmed by this food tour. We didn't eat anything that blew us away. In particular, I was surprised we didn't eat any sushi. Some of the food we ate actually gave me a terrible stomach ache. It was pretty expensive and I didn't feel it was worth the money.
