The wasabi farm experience was phenomenal. A beautiful walk through the woods, as well as education about the plants, animals and geography that affect the growing region was followed by sashimi and beef with freshly grated wasabi right out of the stream. David was a patient and careful guide, and was both thoroughly knowledgeable on the subject of wasabi growing as well as an advocate for more natural wasabi rather than the fake "horseradish" wasabi you get at most restaurants. It is a rather active walk - about 1.7 miles round trip, uphill all the way to the location, so when he says "where a good pair of walking shoes or boots" he's not kidding. We arrived early and enjoyed the local scenery and nature. It's a welcome break just an hour our of Tokyo city downtown. "Take a bath in nature".

Aki took us to a part of Tokyo I would not have seen otherwise, down narrow streets packed with restaurants and bars, some of them under the train tracks. Delicious sake, sashimi, grilled meat, ramen and a friendly and personable host. Seeing a tiny bar with friendly customers was a highlight. Come very hungry!

Quick summary - it’s a wonderful experience and you won’t regret it! 10/10 and S+ tier If you’re a fan of Shizuka’s videos, you’ll definitely love the Harajuku tour that she’s arranged. If you’re not (yet) a fan, this is a tour that you should choose. Either way, you should bring an extra pair of socks because the tour will knock the first pair off. Jk😉 Shizuka’s entertaining, engaging, and energetic personality really stood out as she led my wife and I and another couple through parts of Harajuku along the famous Takeshita street. It’s not just a foodie tour but she gives history and cultural insights about the area and street during the (too short) four-hour tour. We had so much fun as a group eating, drinking, walking, and talking. Shizuka effortlessly led an interactive tour as she guided our group. She made sure that everyone had opportunities to engage in the activities like cooking okonomiyaki and selecting gatchapon, which made the tour much more interesting than just being led around listening to a taped or scripted tour. Shizuka shared her knowledge and experiences in Japan and gave recommendations about other foods, areas, and activities based on people’s interests and questions. We enjoy her videos on YT and her tour definitely did not disappoint. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it to everyone. Time really flew because we had so much fun. We will definitely look for more tours with byFood and Shizuka on future trips to Japan.

Vegetarian Food Tours in Japan

The interest in vegetarianism and the plant-based lifestyle has been rising globally, due to ethical and environmental reasons, and Japan is no exception. While Japan has a historically fish-based diet, in recent years the Japanese food scene has been making more attempts to be accommodating of other diets, especially in Tokyo. Vegan and vegetarian restaurants in Tokyo are now on the upswing, and there are more and more vegetarian food tours in Japan where people can enjoy their favorite plant-based Japanese foods.

While many of these tours are located in Tokyo, there are also vegetarian food tours in Kyoto and plant-based food tours in Osaka in addition to Hiroshima and other areas across Japan. The variety of experiences include vegetarian street food tours, tea ceremony experiences, and farm tours. During these vegetarian food tours in Japan, you’ll be accompanied by a local guide who will answer your questions about Japanese cuisine, culture, and history. You’ll meet both locals and foreign visitors to Japan, and end the tour with a full stomach and warm memories.
