Tokyo 日本街头美食 一日游(7)

Our trip was an absolute treat! What a great way to begin our trip to Japan and our host, Emma, was absolute delight. Food was amazing, the stories will real and educational and the experience was worth every penny. Would absolutely do something like this again. Thank you so much!!

We had such a great time on this tour and had so much wonderful food. Hannah G. was an excellent guide! We were especially appreciative of her knowledge of vegetarian options. Also, she shared great tips on eating vegetarian as we traveled and even recommended a signature dish for the next prefecture we were headed to. And the tea surprise to finish the tour was such a special experience. Highly recommended.

Great tour- good history of the area and knowledge of culinary shops!

Quick summary - it’s a wonderful experience and you won’t regret it! 10/10 and S+ tier If you’re a fan of Shizuka’s videos, you’ll definitely love the Harajuku tour that she’s arranged. If you’re not (yet) a fan, this is a tour that you should choose. Either way, you should bring an extra pair of socks because the tour will knock the first pair off. Jk😉 Shizuka’s entertaining, engaging, and energetic personality really stood out as she led my wife and I and another couple through parts of Harajuku along the famous Takeshita street. It’s not just a foodie tour but she gives history and cultural insights about the area and street during the (too short) four-hour tour. We had so much fun as a group eating, drinking, walking, and talking. Shizuka effortlessly led an interactive tour as she guided our group. She made sure that everyone had opportunities to engage in the activities like cooking okonomiyaki and selecting gatchapon, which made the tour much more interesting than just being led around listening to a taped or scripted tour. Shizuka shared her knowledge and experiences in Japan and gave recommendations about other foods, areas, and activities based on people’s interests and questions. We enjoy her videos on YT and her tour definitely did not disappoint. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it to everyone. Time really flew because we had so much fun. We will definitely look for more tours with byFood and Shizuka on future trips to Japan.

After watching countless byFood videos on YouTube, we decided to book the tour with Shizuka — and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. The tour offered the perfect blend of fascinating information about Harajuku, fun activities, and a wonderful variety of delicious foods. Shizuka’s open, cheerful, and irresistibly positive personality made the entire experience unforgettable, and the time just flew by. For anyone who has the chance to join Shizuka on this tour, it’s an absolute must-do — it will definitely be the highlight of your Tokyo trip. Thank you so much for the amazing tour, Shizuka!
