プライベート東京フードツアー：赤羽根のレトロな居酒屋を体験

Simon was an excellent guide I loved the enriching experience

What a great experience. Guide was fun and knowledgeable and good conversationalist. Got to try some excellent food in authentic settings we never would have found on our ownp

Simon’s Akabane Underground Food Tour was absolutely incredible. Even after visiting Tokyo a few times I would never have found these places on my own. The authenticity of the experience was amazing — tiny local spots full of character that truly show the real side of Tokyo. Simon’s knowledge of the area, the food, and the culture is outstanding, and his passion makes the whole night unforgettable. It feels much more like exploring with a well-connected local friend than being on a tour. Easily one of the best experiences I’ve had in Tokyo. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This tour was amazing! Once in a lifetime type of experience. Our guide took us to the most delicious izakayas I could have imagined, places I could never have found even if I spoke Japanese. Such an adventure. I promise you will have a great time. And say hi to Chuck for us. Such a good night.

This was a blast. Simon kept it light and informative, guided us through classic izakaya dishes, and somehow steered us toward things we didn’t know we’d love. The neighborhood is a gem—retro, lively, and way off our usual path. Perfect tour: we tried lots, learned plenty, and rolled out happy.

So much fun! A great local, off the normal tourist track experience with tons of food, drinks, and laughs. Simon was a terrific guide. Highly recommended!

We had a great time with Simon. He took us to local spots and we ate a wide variety of food. He tailored our orders to what we wanted to try. It was off the beaten path which made it even better.

A group of 6 of us, who were traveling together, had a wonderful immersive adventure with Simon, beginning with taking the Tokyo rail system to meet him at an area of restaurants frequented by locals. We went to three different restaurants, each featuring a different food experience: Tokyo pancakes and local drinks, Japanese "comfort foods," and sushi/seafood. Since it was a Saturday night, we had an opportunity to dine with lots of locals. Simon explained the significance of each food we were served, and even the most apprehensive in our group, enjoyed the offerings. We found Simon to be a charming guide, and all 6 of us were still raving about the food tour the next day!

I have been to Japan many times already and despite speaking very usable Japanese myself, I still get intimidated by Izakayas and restaurants that are really off the typical "tourist path" and mainly visited by Japanese people only. Simon compiled a great program that featured delicious foods with a great variety in locations I would never find myself. He also ordered many interesting foods that I never even heard about - like for example "tuna Jaw". I didn't even know that was something you could eat, but it was by miles the best cooked tuna I ever had anywhere. We really got to see wonderful places and were in great company all evening. We will certainly book another tour again when we visit Japan next year! Thank you!
