Hidden gems in Shimbashi - Hiromi was an excellent guide once again. She actually tailored this tour based on my conversations the previous night in the Shibuya tour. I’m really glad to do Shimbashi as it has a mix of everything - from eating where locals eat in Shimbashi, to amazing sky scaper views of Tokyo, to the extravagant night lights of Ginza which ended at a kissaten (classic Japanese cafe) with pancakes.

Awesome food and walking tour - It was a great tour! Kato-san was awesome and took us to 3 great eating places. The first was unique takoyaki.. it was great. We would have never had this. He even took us on walking tour around the area. And pointed out places to come back to. Would highly recommend Kato-san and this tour!

Personal Restaurant Guide in Shimbashi! - We so appreciated Naoto’s experience navigating around the busy Shimbashi and Ginza district, so we could get an insiders guide to all the best food. It was very convenient to walk right into two restaurants (Japanese BBQ and Sushi) and have Naoto order everything for us and explain it all. Sometimes even when you are surrounded by so much food, it can be overwhelming choosing where to go. This is where a guide comes in handy! Highly recommend! It was fun to end the tour in the Ginza district and take in all the beautiful stores.

Custom Tour for a Solo Traveler - I enjoyed exploring parts of Tokyo with my tour guide and photographer, Akira. We enjoyed local, popular dishes and took a detour when I mentioned classical music where we went to a special classical music cafe. Professional service and personalized experience.

Fun Tour in Shimbashi - We had a wonderful time with Naoto. He really knows his way around Shimbashi and Ginza. He spent a lot of time with us showing us several sites in addition to stopping at several tasty food venues.

Astonishing! - Thank you to @washoku_club_food_tours for bridging the gap for those who have never tried sushi before to make it an easy and fun process, by including cooked versions of sushi (usually it’s always raw!) and of course for having halal options. Today we learnt how ‘sacred’ sushi 🍣 is as an experience. It’s not just a meal, it’s an aspect of the lifestyle. First you wash your hands with a cloth handed by the chef 👨‍🍳 (in the previous upload) then you eat ginger to clean your mouth 👄 and drink green tea 🍵 which the restaurant usually grows itself!! So every restaurant’s green tea is unique & different. Then you begin the sushi experience which was absolutely astonishing!
