Why take a food tour in Kyoto?
We want to give you an experience you wouldn’t be able to have on your own. Not only are these the kinds of restaurants where you can only make a reservation over the phone and in Japanese, but most of them don’t even take walk-ins.
About our restaurant partners
We spend a lot of time exploring Kyoto to evaluate restaurants and bars in the city. We only take you to local restaurants and bars that have passed our criteria, including food quality and atmosphere, during our food tour. We will help you become a Japanese food ninja in just a few hours!
Explore like a local
We know that you’re familiar with sushi and ramen, so we want to show you something different. The restaurants we have chosen for you showcase local Kyoto culinary traditions—the kinds of places where even google translate would have a difficult time deciphering the menu in an accurate way. Most of the restaurants we go to change their menu seasonally, if not daily, and they’re handwritten to reflect that.
We proudly deliver our signature food tours in Kyoto. If none of our regular tours sounds appealing, we can arrange a private tour for a more personalized foodie experience, making your stay in Kyoto more special and unique. Let us know in advance.
