This was a wonderful tour. The sushi experience is high end with a private chef. The Wagyu was excellent as well. It was fun to walk through the nightlife district and see the sights and sounds. Our guides were Yuki and Yuzuki (Yuzu). They were both amazing. They told us all about the region and food we had. They took a genuine interest in us and answering all our questions. They were personable and caring. The best guides you could hope to get. Thank you Yuki and Yuzuki for a memorable tour!

Our family (2 adults + 14+ 11 year old) enjoyed this tour. It was a nice mix of seeing some sights & history about shinjuku along with food tastings. We had this tour at the end of a long day of sightseeing and appreciated that the tastings were at restaurants where we could sit down to relax and enjoy the food. Our guide Yoko was great at keeping the kids engaged. My daughter was not as adventurous with sushi. The sushi restaurant offered a vegetarian option that worked well for those who might not like more traditional sushi offerings. At the end of the night we were offered a few choices for dessert. We selected gelato and a beautiful view at the top of a hotel. Great way to end an evening.

Hiro was a great tour guide! The sushi and Wagyu were excellent. We learned some interesting facts and had a lot of fun!
We had an incredible experience on the Foodie Tour in Shinjuku. Ramesh was a fantastic guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and great at sharing insights about the local area and food culture. Walking through Shinjuku with him added so much context to the experience, from hidden gems to local favorites. We were so excited to visit Memory Lane. The food throughout the tour was outstanding, especially the omakase sushi and wagyu, which truly lived up to its reputation. Every stop felt thoughtfully selected and well-paced. Ramesh even took photos for us and sent them to us once the tour was completed. Overall, amazing cuisine and a great tour.
