A great day

Published on Nov, 2024

My friend and I had a wonderful time on the Sake tour. We learned all about the process of making Sake. Norio Oki is an excellent guide. He was so accommodating to our special requests which included dietary restrictions! The lunch was delicious and the walking tour from to each location was beautiful!

Sake tour with friends

Published on Sep, 2024

Great communication from our guide Norio Oki. He told us how to get to exact station from downtown Osaka to meet him. We toured multiple breweries and museums and had a great lunch in one of them. Norio was very knowledgeable and keen we understood the Sake making processes. The sake tasting was ok but not the best quality but we learned which to buy later - we didnā€™t buy on the tour.

Nada Sake Tour

Published on Sep, 2024

I took the Nada Sake tour with my tour guide Norio-san. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the sake making process. I learned so many things about sake that I had no idea about before touring with Norio-san. He also pick out a fantastic restaurant for a Kaiseki lunch. I highly recommend the Nada Sake tour with Norio-san.

A MUST DO IN KOBE!!! Amazing Sake Tour and Kobe Beef Lunch Experience

Published on Jul, 2024

This tour was amazing! We visited a mix of traditional and more modern sake breweries and the mix was perfect. We learned so much about the sake making process and the history behind it, it made us appreciate the process and the product even more! Yumiko was our guide and she was absolutely incredible. She was kind, professional, knowledgeable, and fun! She had an incredible knowledge of the sake history as well as Kobe beef history. She had incredible recommendations on the route of our tour and where to have our Kobe beef lunch. The Kobe beef lunch was INCREDIBLE. The beef was prepared impeccably and the accompaniments were amazingly delicious. The chef at the restaurant was top notch and provided the best service to our family, even accommodating vegetarian/pescatarian diets. I cannot stress enough how amazing this meal was! If you are wanting to have a truly authentic Kobe beef experience, this is your place! Our group was made up of 4 adults and 2 children (6 & 8 y.o.) and this tour was perfect for children to be included. They enjoyed the sake tours and the Kobe beef lunch just as much as us adults! Kid friendly tours might be hard to come by, so it was a relief that this tour was kid friendly. I canā€™t recommend this experience enough. BOOK IT!!! And ask for Yumiko because she was absolutely amazing!! This was one of the best days we had in Japan, most definitely. We love you, Yumiko!
