Great food and great drinks!
Haru-san was a great guide who tailored the experience to our group of 10. Not only did we see some great local spots, but we visited some very unique neighborhoods.

Fun, varied, and delicious
We had such a great time exploring the food scene of Tokyo. Tried a variety of dishes at multiple places in Shibuya and the company was great, we learned more about famous go-to dishes and tried some less explored venues. Mina is a lovely and outgoing guide.

Fantastic tour, great food
Our guide Haru was fantastic and we really enjoyed the experience. He took us to izakayas we never would have found on our own and it was great to have a guide in Shinjuku, a neighborhood we weren't comfortable going on our own
