We had a great time exploring the market with Hiro! It was interesting to learn about his "day job" and he took us to several great spots, including the basement of the department store where locals buy their lunches. Only noting that we stopped at one store and were told everything should be fine for our dietary restrictions, but I checked ingredients when I got home and one sauce had beef & pork in it. We should definitely have checked and do not expect Hiro to know every ingredient in all the packaged goods in the market! Just advice to future travelers to translate everything!

Hiro was a great guide for Nishiki market and the surrounding areas. He was able to navigate our special diets and we tried lots of things. He’s a marine biologist so can tell you a lot about seafood as well as Kyoto culture and traditions

My tour with Hiroshima was excellent. He was very easy to talk to and very knowledgeable about the food in the market as well as the surrounding area. There are many few tasting spots in the market that I may not have tried without his guidance.The food we bought was delicious too. Thank you.

This was an awesome hangout with Hiro! My man knows a lot about the history. Walking through Gion District in the evening was such a cool experience. The architecture was soooo beautiful. This place requires a full day of discovery! Hiro was nice enough to bring his professional camera! Took very good pictures of us. Hiro went out of his way beyond just being a 'tour guide'. Hope to hook up with Hiro again on our next visit!

Punctual, helpful, and a Dodger’s fan!!! Building rapport with Hiro is as easy as counting 1, 2, 3, and we started talking like we were long, lost friends. He brought us to Nishiki Market and explained his heart-out, gave great tips on places to avoid, and where to find great prices. Prior to visiting Japan, family member had requested I bring back some food option… while on tour, I reached out to confirm but due to time difference, I waited for a response. Hiro was kind enough to wait and we started chatting about baseball, and the Dodgers. In the end, he brought me to a few places and I bought what I needed. It was a fun experience and would recommended taking the food tour with Hiro! He won’t disappoint!

Hiroshi was absolutely charming, approachable and informative. He was able to gauge the individual persons knowledge and imparted information about the market and general area clearly and articulately. I cannot praise his efforts to make our tour enjoyable. I would definitely recommend Hiroshi as a great guide.

I’m so glad we went with Hiroshi through the market. We tasted more and learned more than we would have just walking through on our own. We did not leave the tour hungry. Hiroshi recommended a restaurant for dinner and even made a reservation for us. Dinner was amazing too.

We had the pleasure of Hiro giving us a tour of the Nishiki Market. Unfortunately we had a tight schedule and Hiro went out of his way to accommodate our timeline. Not only did we learn so much about local cuisine we were also provided several suggestions on tips on other things to do in the area. Hiro is very interesting and a great conversationalist. We will definitely take his evening tour next time we are in Japan. Thanks Again Hiro.

What a great morning with Hiro! We spent the morning exploring Nishiki Markets. Hiro understood our dietary requirements perfectly and lead us to shops where we could sample foods we liked and could eat. We had sweets, pickles and even tried sake! Hiro took lots of photos which he immediately sent to us. He gave us confidence to go back to the markets and buy food for our lunch. Hiro was welcoming and informative. The tour was a highlight of our trip to Japan. Thank you so much. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone wanting to learn more about Japanese food and culture.
