Kyoto 채식주의자 양조장 투어

We had an amazing time with Ross! He was really fun, engaging and attentive to our preferences. If you are curious about sake or love sake, highly recommend!

Had fun with family making our own sake cup and enjoying the countryside

We absolutely loved the tour led by Thomas and supported by Miyuki! The knowledge they shared was top notch; the tour flowed well & gave us a greater appreciation of sake!

My wife and I joined the tour on Oct 3rd. Sai was our tour guide who took us to a brewery museum, lunch and a few sake tastings. We enjoyed the tour very much, highlight of our day. Learned a lot and tasted quite a few great sake’s.

Yuki was an incredible guide, kind and filled with so much insightful information about Ayabe and Japan in general. Everything about this tour was so special! The wood shop was awesome and the cups are such a unique souvenir, along with delicious food and amazing sake!

We loved our sake tour with Thomas. He was so well versed and taught us a lot about Sake. We really enjoyed walking the Fushimi neighborhood. Not a touristy area and felt very authentic. Next time we come to Japan we will use ByFood again.

We've had such an great time! Teruyuki, our guide, was amazing. He came to pick us up at the station, showed us around Ayabe and even gave us advices on what to do and eat in our next destination. Jin, from the lumbering place, was so nice. He explained and accompanied us so well, we where so happy and proud to make our own sake cups! We ate at a very cute and traditional restaurant. The owner was such a nice and warm lady. Finally, we went to the sake brewery. It was really interesting to learn about the sake making process. Thank you so much to you all, especially Teruyuki who made us want to know more about Ayabe! See you again :)

One of the best tours we’ve ever been on. Had the best time with Thomas! Took absolute care and time to make sure all our questions were answered. Super friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. Took us to a wide variety of places from a sake museum to a sake brewery where we had lunch to a beautiful historical statue to a wonderful dessert. He even took us to a sake sommelier. Also helped us get home. Just absolutely the best experience and could not recommend more. Our only regret is we’re not here for longer to do more tours with Thomas.

A great experience!

Sae was such a phenomenal guide!! We enjoyed learning about the many sake types as she effortlessly handled the logistics. She was so kind also in answering all of the questions we had about Japanese culture and the local area! The food was also amazing. 10/10 very glad we chose this tour!

We just had the best day - thank you Teruyuki! The sake cup making was a heap of fun and Jin was a helpful and friendly host. Lunch at Chatsubo Yoshida was delicious and the matcha was wonderful. Our visit to Wakamiya Sake Brewery in the afternoon was an excellent way to finish the day. Delicious sake and lots of interesting info about sake brewing. Teruyuki is a knowledgeable, friendly and fun guide and we will be back to Ayabe soon!

A wonderful exploration of the history and evolution of Sake culture in Kyoto. This tour breathed new life into my interest of Sake and exposed me to the true variety of Sake available. I love this tour and have a new appreciation for the drink!
