An excellent way to sample unique cuisine!

For the adventurous eaters out there, this tour is well worth the booking! We started off with several servings of fugu (sashimi, fried, and with the tail in a cup of sake) in a local bar that no tourist would normally find. From there, we then visited another local restaurant featuring cuisines from the Kyushu region. Here, we sampled different cuts of horse meat and a few other dishes. Our tour guide provided good local knowledge of the area and advised us on how to sample all of the food. We were given plenty of food, ordered our own drinks, and enjoyed the company of our local guide. Highly recommended!
Cows, Horse and Fish!

Kitamura-san was a great tour guide! The pufferfish and horse meat were fantastic. She was very nice and guided us through the menu and was able to help us answer our questions. She also guided us a little bit around the Ginza district and showed the best spots to eat and shop. Thank you!
Fun experience that felt somewhat rushed

We met Izumi in a very crowded and bustling area of Ginza. Although I was fine meeting him in a safe area, I would suggest meeting in a more specific location that you could find on a gps. For first time visitors to Japan, it’s very perplexing to navigate a new city with a unique address system different from their own. As for the experience, it was goo Ld. I expected at least three different locations on this tour. We only went to two. I enjoy a variety of different foods and I think if other specific food items were planned beforehand, the tour would’ve had a better structure to it. Open some additional suggestions for travelers while including the horse meat (which was very good, by the way) along with the blowfish. We were fascinated with the many food stalls! The only thing I’d suggest is for the guide to slow down a little bit to allow his group to follow. We are new to the city and are bombarded with new sights and sounds, so rushing us through a crowded street induces anxiety because we do not want to get lost. That said, the food and company was very pleasant and we enjoyed every minute. Thank you, Izumi!
Wonderful food tour for the adventurous!

I was meant to enjoy this experience with two friends of mine, who were unfortunately detained in another part of Tokyo and ended up unable to join. However, I will say I had a fantastic time with the host regardless! She set up a very nice selection of tastings (of whale, fugu, and horse sashimi) for me, made great drink suggestions, and conversation flowed well. She made me feel comfortable and welcome even as a surprise-solo attendee. For anyone wishing to explore a variety of 'adventurous' foods without dedicating specific meals to each, I highly recommend this tour!
