The bar hopping tour with Yumi was a great! The local bars we went to had a great vibe, perfect for what I was looking for. Had a great time chatting with Yumi all night about any topic. I recommend this to anyone.

Excellent experience with wonderful drinks and food.

The experience was absolutely wonderful and our tour guide Mayu was fantastic, very knowledgeable of the history of the area, and able to make different groups feel comfortable together.

Great experience

Published on Nov, 2024

This tour was a great way to get a sample of different dishes (and drinks) at a few different izakaya spots in Kyoto. Ataru was an awesome guide - very friendly and knowledgeable about everything, had great stories to tell, and helped give recommendations on things to try and each place. If you're trying to maker dinner plans in Kyoto, would definitely recommend this experience!
