An Amazing activity in Kyoto! - This was a wonderful experience, both educational and fun! Hiro and Yusuke were great hosts and taught us a lot about the history of Sake and the process of making Sake. I will definitely be recommending this tour to anyone I know who is headed to Japan!

Sake tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Worth every penny!! - Our tour guide Aki was amazing!!! We learned so much about sake and we have already had our own sake tastings back home in Hawaii! The weather was perfect and our walk to each sake brewery allowed us time to chat with Aki about all things Japan. And with an extra bonus we were able to sample FRESH tofu!! Again, being from Hawaii where we have a strong Asian culture, we thought we knew sake. NOT! This explained the process so clearly that I was able to confidently purchase a bottle of sake to take home with me. FYI…I chose well 😉. My friends were so happy that we booked this tour! If you’re on the fence about it, don’t be, book it! 10 ⭐️ to Aki!

Hiro and Mami are the best - We had two sunny guides on a dreary day. They made sure that we were having fun all along the way. Friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable. We enjoyed their company as much as the saki! Delightful, by the way. Highly recommend.

Fun and memorable Kobe Sake tour, just super!! - We had the best time in this tour conducted by Hiro and Jun, they were the kindest, most patient, most fun, and not to mention very knowledgeable about sake! I love how they insert sake jokes in order for us to memorize sake historical facts better. I would recommend anyone who is interested in knowing more about Sake to join this tour. I went with my parents and they love the whole journey, it was about 4 hours long and so packed with information, experience, and laughters! Hiro and Jun were very accommodating with the pace of my parents who are already above 65 years old. We enjoyed the history, the numerous sake tasting, the memories made, and of course drinking sake outside the traditional tofu shop was one of the best moments throughout the tour. Thank you so much for a memorable experience, Hiro & Jun -- we now know how to enjoy sake better. Until next time!!

Fun Sake Experience - This was an extremely fun tour. Our tour guide, Hiro, was extremely knowledgeable about sake and she had lots of different kinds for us to taste. We were able to visit a few different places, and even had a short stop for some fresh tofu. I highly recommend doing this tour if you are in the area and enjoy sake!
