Eiji was so nice and knowledgeable. He gave us delicious food we wouldn't have thought to get at Nishiki Market. You should definitely be adventurous and try his top choices, even though he said he would try to accommodate any dietary preferences or restrictions. (Just bear in mind it might be hard to do so!) Eiji took over 75 pictures during the tour, which allowed us to be in the moment and enjoy all the amazing food. At the end of the tour, he took us to the Gion district for sight-seeing. I highly recommend choosing Eiji for your food tour!Eiji is great!

We had a great morning with Ted in the Nishiki markets - myself and my two daughters. We had been there before on our own, and had not discovered half of the things Ted showed us - from puffer fish sashimi, to wagyu beef sushi to soy milk donuts and deep fried ice-cream, plus all sorts of spices and Japanese flavourings, and tempura tuna with sake in a crowded, popular bar. He was very generous and kind, and amusing...I would highly recommend this experience. The price you pay includes all the food you eat - Ted handles the cash, and the negotiations!"Ted" Yoshihiro broadened our palates!

Guia is so warm and friendly and has immense knowledge of food history and culture. We had a great time walking the market stalls with her and talking about life in the different places we’ve lived. She took some great photos of us as well enjoying the food, and seemed to know all the vendors personally! We got pretty fantastic bites to try that was catered to each of my family members tastes and preferences. Overall, I’ve been on food tours on nearly every continent, and this one ranks as one of the best because of its diverse foods, cultural beauty, excellent conversations with our guide, and opportunity to buy a few extra things with her expertise. Book this, you won’t regret it. We had a blast with Guia!

We had an amazing experience with Ted as our guide exploring the unique street food scene in Kyoto. His knowledge of the local cuisine and culture added so much depth to the tour. Ted was not only interesting and engaging but also incredibly patient, ensuring everyone in our group felt included and comfortable. His passion for Kyoto’s food and history truly shone through, making this a memorable experience. Highly recommend Ted for anyone looking to explore Kyoto in a fun, flavourful, and informative way! He has also been soo great at helping us find restaurants while we are here in the city.A must do a Kyoto!

My family of ten with wide ranging tastes and age group had a great time learning about the best local food in Kyoto. We would not have been able to find and enjoy the experience without Eiji's guidance. He was extremely patient and kind with our requests. We had a great time and experience tasting all the interesting and delicious 'best of Kyoto' food! Highly recommended.Best Food Experience!

We are a family of 3 visiting from San Francisco and Eiji was our guide for a food tour of Nishiki market and Gion. Eiji was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable and playful with a good sense of humor. We immediately felt at ease with him. With Eiji deftly navigating the crowds, we ate food at Nishiki that we would never have found ourselves and were steered away from the stalls that were not specific to Kyoto. Our walking tour of nearby Gion was informative and fun—not just an extended photo opportunity. We highly recommend Eiji as your guide and would happily spent time with him again. Thank you Eiji!!We wholeheartedly recommend Eiji!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Kyoto tasting tour with Ted (Yoshihiro). In a word, it was great. Ted introduced me and my wife to wonderful foods we never would have known existed. He is extremely knowledgable and also made everything relevant by explaining the history and culture of the city. The tour took place in Nishiki Market. If we did this on our own, we would have felt completely lost, not knowing what foods to try, who were the best vendors, or, in some cases, how to order the food. While I think he is a native of Kyoto, Ted worked in the States for many years and speaks English very well. This tour is highly recommended!Fantastic guide. A wonderful experience!

My husband, son and I had a wonderful day with Ted in Kyoto. My son is five years ago and Ted crafted the most amazing day together. Our favorite part of the day was food tasting in the market (while my son would say it was the impromptu stop at the Super Mario store for a quick toy). Ted was kind, knowledgable and easy to spend time with. We would highly, highly recommend! Amazing day in Kyoto

Eiji made Kyoto magical for us. We did two tours with him and showed us the best of the city he loves. Not just the tourist spots but local areas where citizens hang out, local food and world heritage sites that no one visits! He is a special person and I wouldn’t do Tokyo with anyone else. Thank you once again Eiji. See Kyoto throughout Eiji’s eyes

Yoshihiro (Ted) was a great communicator prior to our Tour and flexible with the dietary restrictions of our group. He introduced us to many vendors and food/drink options at Nishiki market that we would not have discovered on our own. Very patient with our questions and requests. We learned a lot about the food scene and geisha culture on this Tour.
We took his recommendation about a brew pub for lunch after the Tour and it was excellent. He is a great Ambassador for Kyoto and would definitely book a tour with him again if returning to KyotoExcellent Tour and Communication

We had a fantastic time with Guia. She teaches English for children and instantly connected with our 11 and 13 years old boys making the tour a lot more fun for them. Not only the food was delicious but Guia was also flexible when we wanted to taste different things and gave lots of information and tips about Kyoto. The stop at the Nishiki Tenmangū shrine was a great added bonus.
The market can get very crowded, before booking it might be a good idea to ask for suggestions about best time to visit.
This was a great tour with a fantastic guide!Brilliant afternoon in Kyoto with Guia

I’d recommend booking Ted (Yoshihiro) to anyone traveling to Kyoto that’s interested on the local culture and likes to eat good food. Ted was nothing less than amazing; He speaks great english, is very polite, kind, funny, and easily engages in conversation with you. He’s very cultured in local cuisine, you’ll be eating great food. Even after the experience he went out of his way to help us coordinate an unplanned change in our trip due to weather. Ted also recommended us some local hidden gems outside of the tour for us to check out. I’ll surely be booking Ted again ok my next trip to Japan.Amazing experience!

We feel very honoured to have found Ted on Withlocals. Before we arrived in Japan, Ted was in contact to introduce himself and understand our requirements and this heightened our excitement about the tour. Ted was in contact on the day with map locations via WhatsApp to make sure we knew where to met him. Ted was joyful and fantastic company as well as being an amazing food tour guide. He listened to our requirements and made sure they were catered for but also introduced us to some new and fascinating delicacies that we probably wouldn’t have tried. I cannot recommend him highly enough if you are looking for a guide in Kyoto. At the end of the holiday we asked the kids for their highlights from the trip and they both mentioned the food tour with Ted! Thank you!One of the highlight of our trip

My wife, daughter and two teenage grandkids and I tasted our way through the Nishiki Market with "Ted" and had a wonderful time! Ted told us at the start that he wanted to expose us to the more interesting and unusual tastes of Kyoto and, because we are all happy to expand our comfort zones, we readily agreed and that's what we experienced. Ted had a wonderful sense of humor and command of english so we got along terrifically. I was concerned going in that 10 tastings might not be enough to satisfy all of us but they were more than enough and so varied that we could not have asked for more. Ted also gave us advice about his favorite places to eat in Kyoto which put the icing on the cake. We recommend both the tour and specifically Ted as your guide as a really fun way to experience Kyoto.Tasting our way through the Nishiki Market

We loved our tour with Ted! We did the 10 Food and Drink tour with Ted on our first day in Kyoto, and we could not have been happier. Ted took us to Nishiki Market, and he introduced us to the unique foods that we otherwise would not have tried. So good!
In addition to the tour, Ted recommended places for us to eat and visit in Kyoto which was so helpful. He even helped us days later find a Japanese BBQ place for dinner in our last night in Kyoto.
The price is TOTALLY worth it in our opinion, and it competely made our trip. A MUST for your Kyoto trip!

We arranged this tour with Guia for our family of four and were we ever glad we did! Guia knows her stuff - not just about the local food scene but also the color and history behind several local attractions she recommended for our stay in Kyoto. Communication (in English for us) was a breeze with Guia. She was able to easily handle some dietary restrictions we had and let us have input when we wanted. Not that we strayed far from her recommendations, though, as they were all excellent. My wife and I, and our kids, all had a great time thanks to Guia. We loved Kyoto. Outstanding guide!

My wife and I did the Nishi Market tour with Ted, it exceeded our expectations. Ted is a wonderful, patient and very knowledgeable guide. He walked us through three blocks of the market, stopping at many stalls to try food. He would explain the history of many stalls, provide guidance and answer questions about not just food, but souvenirs we thought about buying. For us the food was the highlight - Ted's deep knowledge of the market stalls and his gentle, friendly personality helped us try many different foods we would never of tried on our own - octopus with a quail egg inside, puffer fish, beef sushi,... Next time we go to Kyoto we will look for one of Ted's tours knowing we will enjoy it as we enjoyed his tour this so much.Most Enjoyable Nishi Market Tour

We had great fun on our “10 tastings” tour with Eiji. He showed us some of the hidden gems of Nishiki market and also which tourist traps to maybe avoid. After the tastings we walked around the Gion district and took in some of the Kyoto highlights as well as some lesser known but arguably even more beautiful corners of the city. We had great fun chatting with Eiji throughout the tour and got to know and see the city from a more nuanced angle. Would highly recommend the tour to someone who wants to get to know the city, is up for a good walk and loves to try out new food experiences!Tasting and walking around Kyoto

We usually come to Japan and do our own thing but decided to give this tour a shot this time. Eiji was amazing. We had 2 kids with us 6 and 8. He was so great with them. We ended up signing up for 2 tours.
1- we did a food tour at Nishiki Market. He gave us an amazing variety for our family that we all loved. He had connections at the shops that had long lines too so we didn’t have to wait. He always did all the waiting and ordering for us. It was very stress free and he always made a point to show us the open restrooms! We tried foods we wouldn’t have tried on our own and they turned out to be delicious!
2- we also enjoyed a bike tour where the 6 y/o got to enjoy cruising on the back and the 8y/o got to maneuver through traffic. He took us through some beautiful areas that weren’t as crowded and new spots we didn’t pick on previous trips. He was accommodating, pleasant, knowledgeable AND took great pictures of us that we would have missed otherwise.
Eiji was fantastic and I would recommend him to any and everyone! Eiji is the best guide!

We had an awesome time in Kyoto with our guide, Ted. He really knows the best places to eat and made us feel super welcome from the start. Ted was great at sharing cool stories and facts about the food we tried and had some exceptional recommendations of festivals and places to see. We wouldn't have known about the Mitarashi festival at Shimogamo Shrine if it weren't for him! It felt like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend. His love for Kyoto's food and history made our tour both fun and interesting.

He answered our questions about everything we wanted to know about food, Kyoto and Japan generally. We got to see parts of Kyoto that we would never have experienced without him. It was great that he took lots of photos and sent them to us, as this left us free to enjoy the food and sights. At the end he made sure we were on the right bus home.

We did the Kyoto street food tour with Yoshihiro (Ted). He took us on a carefully curated tour through Nishiki market. Nishiki market is a wonderfully vibrant place with so many things to experience but can be a bit overwhelming. Having Ted with us to guide us through and keep us on track was essential. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the food scene in Kyoto really enhanced our experience. Not only did he take us on a wonderful tour, he also gave us some great recommendations for the rest of our trip. Thank you, Ted - san! Come Hungry!
