Had a great time with Bruce! It was great learning about how he ended up in Japan and his life in Japan. He showed us some spots we probably never wouldve visited on our own.Bruce was also very accommodating with our kids.

Andres led an unforgettable journey through Kyoto's Gion district and it’s culinary wonders with the Nighttime All-Inclusive Local Eats and Streets, Gion and Beyond tour. At every stop, his knowledge of Kyoto’s history provided an informative glimpse into this great city. Also his knowledge and passion for food and local culture shone through. From indulging in melt-in-your-mouth wagyu beef and flavorful bonito tataki to savoring delicate tofu appetizers and fresh sashimi, each dish was a culinary delight. Andres expertly guided us through the bustling streets of Gion, introducing us to hidden gems and authentic flavors at every turn. The regional Nihonshu tasting was the perfect finale to an evening filled with delicious discoveries. Andres' knowledge, warmth, and enthusiasm made this tour an absolute highlight of our trip. Highly recommended for anyone eager to explore Kyoto's hidden food scene beyond the tourist hotspots!
