Simon is super knowledgeable abt the area. He had the restaurants adjust the food offerings to our preferences and kept us entertained the entire time with wonderful facts abt Japan. Definitely would recommend. Go on this tour with an empty stomach!!! Plenty of food!!!

My wife and my mom went out with Simon for the evening, and had a great time. We started at a contemporary gyoza restaurant where we had a wide variety of gyoza, all of which were delish, and then went to a more traditional izakaya where we had a wide range of food and far too much sake. Simon was great company and I'd absolutely recommend booking with him.

The walking food tour was great! Simon took us places we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. The food was great and he added unique tastings of items that we wouldn’t have ordered. I would book another tour with Simon!

This was our best night in Tokyo, we had such an amazing time with Simon. This is a part of Tokyo we would have never found without him. Sangenjaya is a magical neighborhood with much to explore. Simon anticipated our every need, our plates and cups were never empty. Simon has a very warm relationship with every place we stopped and deep knowledge of both the area Tokyo in general. He is extremely easy to talk to, we felt like old friends right away. 10 out of 10 we could not recommend this tour more.

This is by far the best food experience we ever did!
I don’t even know where to start ..
The remarkable neighbourhood a bit outside of those touristic spots is special.
Very local, quiet but not boring, just perfect!
The food and drink spots were amazing which we went through, but nothing would be anything close that fun without Simon.
He made our evening special and it was one of the best experiences in our three weeks Japan travels.
Simon knows a lot about food, the Japanese culture, has amazing recommendations and is soooo fun!
Thanks again, we were just blessed!

We had an amazing time with Simon! It was a last minute trip, booked the night before. Simon reached out for our preferences, which we had him choose for us. We are so glad he did, he toured us through the city explaining the culture and significance of the food we tried. He was clearly born to tour, we hear he has a great beer and sake tour as well which we will be enjoying the next time we come to japan. We cannot recommend this tour highly enough!!!!
