I joined this tour with my brother and girlfriend, and from the start we could tell it was going to be something special. We even met another really cool attendee along the way, which made the whole experience feel like a fun group of friends exploring Harajuku together. This was hands-down one of the best tours I’ve ever joined, and it’s all thanks to Shizuka. She’s not only warm and welcoming, but an incredible guide who knows exactly how to balance fun, food, and fascinating insights. What really stood out was her ability to bring Harajuku to life through stories, historical and cultural context, and quirky fun facts that you’d never find just walking the streets on your own. It felt like discovering the neighborhood with a close friend who happens to be an expert. The food stops were perfectly chosen, and the highlight of the tour was rolling up our sleeves to make okonomiyaki together. Cooking side-by-side while enjoying all-you-can-drink was such a fun and memorable bonding experience for the whole group. Everyone was smiling, chatting, and genuinely impressed by how smoothly everything was organized. Shizuka has a real gift for making people feel included and engaged. By the end, it felt less like a tour and more like a shared adventure with friends. We ate amazing food, learned so much, and left with wonderful memories.

This is the quintessential by food tour! My wife and I really enjoyed learning more about the culture and food. Harajuku is a fascinating fashion and youth culture district with amazing street foods. My first time trying Okonomiyaki and really enjoyed it. Perfect savory and sweet combination. Just a perfectly curated experience and of course Shizuka is fabulous! As long time viewers of the show it was just amazing to meet with her and enjoy great food and conversation.

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.

After watching countless byFood videos on YouTube, we decided to book the tour with Shizuka — and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. The tour offered the perfect blend of fascinating information about Harajuku, fun activities, and a wonderful variety of delicious foods. Shizuka’s open, cheerful, and irresistibly positive personality made the entire experience unforgettable, and the time just flew by. For anyone who has the chance to join Shizuka on this tour, it’s an absolute must-do — it will definitely be the highlight of your Tokyo trip. Thank you so much for the amazing tour, Shizuka!
