Let’s discover Saijo, one of Japan’s most celebrated sake regions and a truly hidden gem. We will embark on a flavorful journey through its historic breweries. As you stroll down the charming streets, the air fills with the rich, warm aroma of fermenting rice.. With each step, discover the craftsmanship behind Japan’s beloved rice wine in this off-the-beaten-path district, home to eight unique breweries, each with its own time-honored techniques and flavors. We will visit 3-4 breweries during the tour based on opening hours and season.

With an expert guide leading the way, sip on a variety of sake styles—from crisp, dry notes to smooth, fruity finishes—all while admiring the traditional white-walled breweries and towering red brick chimneys that define Saijo’s distinctive skyline. If a particular brew delights your palate, the brewery shops offer exclusive bottles to take home, ensuring you bring a taste of Saijo with you.

Masa was a kind, patient, and affable tour guide who introduced us to some wonderful sake breweries and local favorite restaurants. Highly recommended if you have any interest in how sake is made or want to try a few with a knowledgeable guide and translator (especially the unique Hiroshima brews with their special soft mountain water).
A great experience

We really enjoyed our sake tour with our guide Sanae. The museum was interesting, lunch was great and the tasting at the end was both interesting and great fun. But the highlight of the tour was Sanae, who was a wonderful, gracious and entertaining guide.
A very interesting, informative tour with more sake samples than we could drink

This tour was led by Masa, a qualified sake sommelier. He took us to a number of breweries where we could see the equipment used in the intricate brewing process and taste samples of different types of sake. The tour included a delicious lunch with more sake! We also stopped at a specialist coffee shop. We learnt a lot and ate and drank too much!
Amazing tour, highly recommend!

I was able to have an experience that could only be tasted locally, such as various liquors and sake hot pots, and the guide was also very fun, so I was very satisfied with the cost performance.

We had so much fun on this tour! We went to several sake breweries and got to sample and learn a ton that we would never have been able to on our own. The lunch portion was delicious. Would definitely recommend!

Ryan was an excellent guide - both knowledgeable and humorous. As no other persons were registered, the four of us had a "private" tour Each of the breweries we visited had different products an Ryan began to know what each of us liked and disliked - thus tailoring the tour for us.
Awesome experience on the Sake Town Tour

The Sake Town tour in Saijo was a blast. Our guide, Olivia, was delightful and made sure we had an easy, fun, and memorable experience. We first learned the process of Sake production and what makes Hiroshima sake unique. After that we went to no less than 6 breweries to sample their selections. We also enjoyed a DIY nabe lunch featuring sake in the broth and also got to relax at a nice cafe for a bit and sample sake cakes. We enjoyed the sake so much, after the tour was concluded we went back to a few breweries to enjoy even more before heaving back to Hiroshima city!
