Good food, good choices of restaurants but missed the mark

4.00Great experience in terms of food and restaurants. Negatives: Four people were late and the guide worked to rendezvous with them after we embarked. That took away a bit from our experience as he worked it out on his phone. Also group became 11, which is a little on the large side with guide and his shadow (total 13). Also the guide decided to have us pause and watch a street performer who charges to have people hit him with a whiffle ball bat. This is a bit disturbing in my book and not something that should be celebrated or encouraged. The street performer was not Japanese, and honestly, I don't think indicative of local culture. We've done a lot of food tours. This was one was good, but removing one star for putting revenue ahead of the experience of the on-time guests and his questionable taste in entertainment.
Must do in Tokyo!

5.00AMAZING!!! Must do this experience and if you are lucky enough to have Lloyd as your tour guide you will definitely enjoy, learn and eat a lot of local food! He was amazing with great communication and always trying to take care of every detail. This tour is a must for those who enjoy eating local food and getting to know the surroundings in a fun way.
Great tour!

3.00Not a ton for vegetarians. The tour didn’t include any sushi or noodles. Quantity of food was a lot but we just didn’t love the taste of many of the items.
