Uncover the best of Nishiki Market the local Way

"Tiro was amazing! Not only did we try many foods we would have never tried before, but we also got a rich feel for the history of Kyoto and the food markets and even some shrines we went through. His personality is so fun and easy going. He is a genuine person and we loved getting to know him and the food of Kyoto!"

"Guia started our Kyoto food tour in a small teppanayaki-style restaurant, the kind with a hot griddle in the middle of each table. Among the items she ordered for the four of us to try was yakisoba, a delicious noodle dish that I couldn’t stop eating. Luckily Guia knew exactly how to make it and wrote the recipe for it in my phone. From there we went on to the Nishiki Market where we sampled a lot of food from an unending number of stalls. One of the next best stops was to briefly sit at a counter to be served the famous Wagyu beef. Yum. Guia never rushed us through the market and was so patient as we quizzed her about all the packages of food that were new to us and written in Japanese. Having grown up in the Philippines , she is a native English speaker, always a welcome help."

"We thoroughly enjoyed our tasting tour with Eiji. He was friendly, informative and accommodating to the fussy needs of our teenager. He also took loads of fantastic photos for us. I highly recommend booking a tour with Eiji, you won't be disappointed."

"Yoshihiro took al the time to give us a fantastic experience. He also gave us extra advice through whatsapp, also about Osaka"

"Great day with Ted. Very informative and great food choices. Highly highly recommend!"
