LET'S GET OUT OF THE TOURIST AREA where it's overpriced and crowded with tourists!
I’ll discuss not only Japanese food and drinks but also culture, traditions and history, which will be beneficial for the rest of your stay in Japan for sure!
This tour focuses on Ueno, which is not as crowded as Shibuya, Shinjuku and is less touristy. I'm going to take you to popular taverns and restaurants for ONLY LOCALS (NO TOURISTS!!) where the staff speaks NO ENGLISH.
We will visit several taverns where you will have sashimi, grilled fish and ramen, etc. You will also have the opportunity to try UNIQUE Japanese alcoholic drinks, so you'll be able to experience what Japanese taverns are like. I'll order signature dishes and feel free to ask me any questions.
At the end of tour, I will explain which train station you need to go to, depending on your destination.

5.00I had such a wonderful time on this tour with Aki! From the very beginning, Aki was warm, welcoming, and made everyone feel comfortable. The way he shared his knowledge about Japanese food, drinks, and culture was both fun and informative. I learned so much while also laughing and enjoying the experience. The food and drinks we tried were absolutely delicious, and Aki made sure we got a real taste of Japan beyond what most tourists would find on their own. He was also so thoughtful about taking great photos for us, which made the memories even more special. What I appreciated most was how personal and genuine the whole experience felt. It was clear Aki really cares about his guests having the best time possible. If you’re visiting Tokyo, I highly recommend this tour. It’s the perfect mix of culture, food, fun, and great company. Thank you, Aki, for making my trip so memorable!
Best do food tour!
