Highly recommended - This was an excellent tour. Our guide Yutaka was amazingly knowledgeable and kind. He arranged the whole trip in a way that gave context to the history of the area and how it led to the formation of Nishiki Market before we even set for in it. He gave tons of information about the different foods we sampled as we explored the Market. At the end we had the pleasure of having lunch with him and discussing life!
