Shane was amazing! So much fun and very tasty food!
Blake was awesome! Def worth booking - really enjoyed the food tour!! Aloha!
My wife and I had the best time on this tour. It was a perfect way to get the lay of the land in Shinjuku during the early days of being there. Our guide, Jun, was able to weave cultural, historical and tons of food knowledge into the entire experience. I would recommend this to anyone. Jun was seriously the best guide…and hilarious too!!!
Highly recommend this food experience with Karen, a lovely Tokyo local. Especially loved the Okinawa food, my new fav 😍
This tour was recommended by friends who did it days earlier, and we really enjoyed our evening! Our guide, Jun, was a great young man, clear in his explanations, funny, and informative. The food and drink we tried was interesting, tasty, and unusual. It was an evening I'll never forget!
Really enjoyed the food selections and descriptions from Ryogo of the food and culture!

It was a fabulous way to learn about Shinjuku area and experience dishes we would probably not have eaten but truly loved. May was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and fun.

Elena was fantastic! She was very energetic and enthusiastic about hosting our food tour. Each restaurant selection was different and the menu choices were perfect. She shared get information about each area we visited or just walked through. Most importantly she knew the best spots for pictures and took amazing pictures of us during the tour.
