Alina, our guide, was truly exceptional. She had a wealth of knowledge about wonderful vegan experiences in the Ginza area of Tokyo. She also shared her insights into Japanese culture and history that gave us new insights and appreciation for this wonderful country. We highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in experiencing the vegan side of central Tokyo.

Our tour was a perfect way to visit Tsukiji, with a friendly guide (we had Sandra) who knew the ins and outs of the market, and insight on some great treats we wouldn't have known about! We left the tour with full bellies and awesome memories. Highly recommended!

We had a great experience! It can be about more than just the snacks, thankfully. Our guide asked about our interest level and, with that confirmed, shared her extensive knowledge of Japanese customs as ate our desserts. Two things to know: this is really a walk around the shrine, not a neighborhood tour. If you arrive early, do not explore the shrine; instead, wander through the surrounding streets. Also, the desserts were wonderful but it is really a mochi tour. We love mochi in all its forms so it worked well for us. However, if you don't, you may want to note that in your booking so other arrangements can be made. It was a delightful way to spend some time especially since we were starving. Vegan in Japan is the challenge everyone says it will be even with a plan. Our guide was kind to share vegan restaurant recommendations with us. Even with those it was still tricky as we are not used to or inclined to wait in long lines for a table.

Although it's a seemingly steep price, with Josh expertly guiding us through and him and the teams willingness to facilitate for our dietary requirements, having the onus taken off yourself to explore and figure things out is incredibly helpful. It's absolutely worth it if you're tired of navigating alone or if you'd like a better insight to the market than what you could get on your own.

Wow, Lauren is so well versed in all things Japan! She does an amazing job explaining things and sharing lots of insights about the culture and history while also bringing you to lots of spots for food and drink. She is attentive to her guest and was impressive every step of the way. This was well worth everything, and we will remember this for the rest of our lives!
