Amazing! We had very yummy food for all palates but also super interesting and unique foods. All of the places we would have never found by ourselves! Hidden underneath train tracks, Japanese cuisine from a far away Southern island - even got to try a unique snake liquor with the snake still in it! How cool! This is a tour for the more or less adventurous eaters alike. Accommodated food preferences and allergies perfectly. Kids on the tour even enjoyed it. Alcoholic or non alcoholic beverage at the savory food stops. The desserts were also to die for- mochi with chestnut was amazing! And the cracker cookie a delight. We loved all food and it was the best we’ve had so far on the trip- despite going out of our way as foodies and having tasted lots of delicious food around the world.

We have done a lot of food tours and this was the lightest. Two of the stops were mainly for advertising purposes where the shop owner lets you taste tea or cookies with the hope of selling you things. You don’t really need a food tour to sample. Josh our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Overall light in food options, so don’t recommend. Highly priced.

We went to restaurants popular with the locals that we could not have tried by ourselves. Delicious food especially the mochi. Expect a lot of walking from one place to the other around Hinza
