Worth the trip to Kobe just for this tour

Published on Apr, 2025

This was a wonderful and informative tour. Momoe was a friendly and helpful guide who is fluent in English. The factory tours were where great and we could sample sake from different brewers and even limited batches. This is a great way for any sake lover to spend their time in Kobe.

Excellent Sake Brewery Tour!

Published on Mar, 2025

Excellent tour with Kisho. He was super knowledgeable and could translate between English and Japanese flawlessly for us. We learned a lot about the sake brewing process and got to taste a lot of good sake as well.

Great Sake Brewery tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Our tour guide, Kauro, was excellent! She was so fun, outgoing, and knowledgeable. She always made sure that we were well taken cared of. Kauro made sure that we got on the right train to our next destination. The tour itself was great too. They have great displays to show how sake is made and how these breweries make their sake taste so good. The tour includes 7 full shots of sake and other opportunities for free samples of sake The next time that we want to do a tour in the Osaka - Kobe area we'll try to ask for Kauro
