5.00Kyle and the food were great. It wasn’t too much or too little. Kyle was very personable and insightful of the insides and outside of Shinjuku. He would always ask if we’re okay and adjust to our pace. We left with a lasting impression and a perspective of Japan we wouldn’t have known and seen thanks to Kyle and the tour. Well recommended. Arigato gozaimashita
A must try!

5.00Kyle is a good guide! He made the tour memorable, especially going through the small alley ways and eating at the local izakaya. Food pretty good too! The overall experience is worth it!

5.00Everything I tasted on the tour was amazing. The portions were just right, and the main and side dishes were perfectly balanced! (So different from what I eat in the States!) Our guide Riko also explained all the food to me, so I'm sure I'll be healthy and healthy tomorrow.
Best food tour!

5.00Seiya was a fantastic tour guide. We got to try some foods that we haven't been brave enough to try yet (like horse) and Seiya gave a great tour around the Shinjuku area. We had a blast!
Fun night seeing new sights and trying new food!

5.00We had a great time with Kyle! He knew a lot of interesting and unique facts about Shinjuku and Kabuchiko and was willing to answer all of our many questions. He has so many fun stories to share about his personal experiences living in Japan! We laughed a lot. It was neat getting to visit restaurants we wouldn’t have known to go to on our own. All the food was delicious and the drinks were great.
Great food tour
