Highly recommend! Shiori was wonderful and such a great tour guide. We tasted 21 different sakes and she was very knowledgeable and pleasant to be around. You do both a museum tour and sake bar.

Peko and Jimmy were our guides. They were great and very informative. We had never tried sake before so this was a great experience to try different kinds. We would highly recommend.

Fun tour!

Published on Nov, 2024

The tour was so fun! Taking this tour during this season is highly recommended since drinking Sake helped keep us feel warm. Karin, our tour guide, was so informative, considerate and fun to be with. She indulged us and answered all our questions, even not sake related, and recommended good restaurants. She also played a drinking game with us!
