THE tour for a local's experience of Kyoto’s best food! Our nationally-licensed and experienced English-speaking guides will help you find the best eats while learning about Kyoto.
Kyoto’s dishes have little flashes of flavor that will surprise you from Tofu skin hot pots to eel rice bowls, and buckwheat noodles with a huge fish.
Street food fans must visit Nishiki Market. This 400 year old market is rich in history and food. See some too-cute-to-eat Japanese ‘wagashi’ sweets or the eccentric tako-tamago, a skewered octopus stuffed with a quail egg. Or you can enjoy looking at the pickled foods that locals love! If you are a tea fan, have some rich and warm green tea (matcha), or a green tea parfait to cool down.
Once your reservation is made, please chose 3-4 spots from the tour details and let your guide know your food interests when planning. We hope to guide you soon!
*The cost of food and drinks is not included in the tour price. The tour fee covers guide services only.

Nishiki Market Shopping District
Nishiki Market (錦市場, Nishiki Ichiba) is a narrow, five block long shopping street lined by more than one hundred shops and restaurants. Known as "Kyoto's Kitchen", this lively retail market specializes in all things food related, like fresh seafood, produce, knives and cookware, and is a great place to find seasonal foods and Kyoto specialties, such as Japanese sweets, pickles, dried seafood and sushi. Nishiki Market has a pleasant but busy atmosphere that is inviting to those who want to explore the variety of culinary delights that Kyoto is famous for. The stores found throughout the market range in size from small narrow stalls to larger two story shops. Most specialize in a particular type of food, and almost everything sold at the market is locally produced and procured.
Gion
Exploring the narrow alleyways of Kyoto’s Geisha District—Gion can be daunting for a first-time visitor. Eliminate the worry of getting lost by going on a guided tour. It’s a great way to discover hidden places that locals love, and to hear about Kyoto’s ancient past. Highlights include learning about Geisha culture and rituals, and visiting Gion, Pontocho, and Miyagawacho.

5.00We had a most enjoyable day with Maya who was an engaging guide. We came away with more knowledge of Japanese and Kyoto food culture and thus our visit is more meaningful. Maya brought us to the famous Nishiki market and as a comparison, to the Takashimaya food basement where locals buy their fresh as well as ready-to-eat food items. Maya also introduced seasonal spring treats and brought us to lunch in a rustic duck shabu-shabu restaurant overlooking the river. A visit to Japan is a chance to enjoy its culinary delights and thus this tour is essential to enhance your eating experience.

5.00Ichiro was a great tour guide! It was wonderful to explore and eat our way through Nishiki Market with a local. He picked the best food, and pointed us to a few shops making quality crafts. From there, we visited temples and neighborhoods of Kyoto, and Ichiro provided detailed history at each location. He’s very knowledgeable and takes great photos!

5.00Kazz was our guide through the food markets and the cultural spots of Kyoto. The experience was amazing! Our guide showed us many iconic and hidden photo spots in the city we would otherwise never have found out. As the cherry on top, the tour took place in the evening, so the gold wash of the sunset enhanced the beauty of Kyoto greatly. Kazz is a great guide and well-connected in Kyoto. He knew all the ins and outs of the cultural and food aspects of the city. On top of it, we are thankful for the numerous photos he took of us during the trip. Looking back at it now, these photos are truly a blessing. They really captured excellent moments and are great to look through for the memories. We would highly recommend him and this tour!

5.00We had an amazing evening with Ryoichi Kazz eating our way through Nishiki market and Gion district in Kyoto. Kazz was very knowledgeable about all the street food and vendors at Nishiki Market. He took us to a beautiful place where we tried matcha. We had a delicious dinner with him, which included a variety of dishes. It was just so wonderful to have him as a guide showing us the beauty of Kyoto. Bonus was he took many great pictures of us with his camera! He is very easy to talk with and is a kind, joyful person. He made this our favorite tour in Japan! Highly recommend him and this tour if you like eating!
