Pedro was excellent! Great food and good value for money.
What an absolutely wonderful evening exploring Kyoto through its food! Thirteen delicious dishes across four establishments, each offering something different and memorable. What truly made this experience exceptional was our guide, Thunder. Her knowledge of Kyoto, its history, culture, and culinary traditions was outstanding. She brought each stop to life with fascinating insights, warmth, and genuine enthusiasm. It was so much more than simply a food tour. The group was lovely, the conversation flowed effortlessly, and the entire evening felt like sharing wonderful food with new friends. An absolutely fantastic experience from beginning to end. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour, and if you’re fortunate enough to have Thunder as your guide, you’re in for a treat!
Nay was great. God was very good variety.
Good food heavy seafood. Nice way to explore food in the city.
We had the best food tour experience - good food, great conversations and an outstanding guide, Paris, who entertained the whole group with fun facts and questions. We would definitely recommend this tour.
Boas was a great Guide; chatty, informed and amusing. He pointed out interesting things along the way (so not just food). Would happily recommend him and the Tour to anyone interested in trying something new in Kyoto!

I really enjoyed this Foodie tour. Liz gave us a brief description of each dish as well as it's history. She too us to places that I never would have found on my own. Highly recommended for newcomers as well as veteran Kyoto visitors.

The best part of the tour was our guide Alessio. We learned a lot from him. But The food was just ok.
Sam was an awesome guide. She explained everything so well. The food was amazing too. Some of the seating is on the floor.

Liz was a great guide. Very informative and kind. And the food spots were an excellent mix of the foods of Kyoto.
Liz was great and the food was great
The tour was advertised as a Gion walking food tour, but was almost completely confined to Pontocho Alley, where we had already had a great meal. Was advertised as three hours, but we needed to leave after 3 1/2. Otherwise the guide was good and the food was fine.
Excellent tour led by Nay. This was a perfect introduction to Kyoto on my first evening there.
Sam is very sweet and very accommodating. She was a wonderful guide and I would highly highly recommend her to anyone looking for amazing food, amazing commentary and a very fun time.
Very good experience and the Guide Sam is very professional, friendly and patient.
