Enjoy Japanese food like a local by exploring 5 authentic spots in Tokyo! This guided tour takes you to hidden eateries where locals indulge in their favorite dishes. Along the way, your expert guide will share fascinating insights into the history and cultural significance behind each dish. You’ll savor traditional dishes such as sashimi (freshly sliced raw fish), tonkatsu (crispy fried pork cutlet), dumplings (savory meat or vegetable-filled bites), yakitori (grilled chicken skewers), and takoyaki (crispy octopus balls). Each dish offers a unique taste of Japan’s rich culinary heritage, while your guide brings the stories and traditions to life. By the end of the tour, you’ll not only be full but also have a deeper understanding of Tokyo’s food culture.

Super nice guide and great tour

Published on May, 2025

Some of our friends are going soon and we have recommended this tour to them! My partner and I had such a spectacular time that we are hoping to reconnect with the guides here when we go back during winter. Great tour!

Great Tour idea really fun

Published on May, 2025

A perfect way to finalize our girls trip in Tokyo. We had a blast and it was great to be in good company and have some of the best spots shared with us! Super fun

A Memorable Hidden Gem Experience!

Published on May, 2025

I tried this solo and had a great time! The guides ACTUALLY knew the local area and showed us areas that were not over touristed! Highly recommend trying them out if you want to find new spots and possibly make some new connections with people!

It was a really fun time, we had Yo as a guide tonight. We started with some Izakaya food at a local restaurant before moving onto a place where we had dumplings. The last stop was a sake bar, it was a very good time we had
