Hugo was an incredible guide: he was knowledgeable, interesting, and funny. We learned so much about Kyoto and about Japan on our tour and got to see areas of the city that we would not have explored on our own. We loved the bars and the variety of foods that were selected for us as well. We highly recommend Hugo and this tour for anyone visiting Kyoto.

We had a fantastic time at our tasting thanks to Hayato, the man who led our experience!! He was very knowledgeable and generous with his time, including sharing recommendations for bars and things to do during the rest of our stay. We had a lot of fun learning about the history of Japanese whiskey and experiencing the nuances in taste among the different makers and bottles. Would highly recommend!!!

Highly Recommended! A Unique Vegan & Sake Pairing Experience Finding great vegan food in Japan can be tough, but this experience was exceptional! The expertly paired sake enhanced each dish, from the rich soy meat Peking duck to the flavorful tan-tan noodles. The sommelier was incredibly knowledgeable, making the tasting both delicious and educational. Plus, the masu sake cup souvenir was a great touch! For sake lovers and plant-based food enthusiasts, this is a must-try in Tokyo. Don’t miss it!

Our experience was fantastic! Bruce and Tomoko were exceptional. This is a must do when in Fukuoka. We wanted to experience the Yatai stalls but felt a little intimidated doing them by ourselves so we booked the tour and we’re so glad we did! We highly recommend to book this to get the real local experience. We made two new friends who helped us enjoy delicious food and were delightful company! 10 out 10. It was an unforgettable evening and an extra-special birthday for my wife.
