★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 24 reviews · from $230

Join certified international sake sommelier Kenji for a private three-hour evening in central Kyoto. Visit two or three handpicked bars, including a traditional machiya izakaya and a local standing bar, with sake, craft beer, and small dishes chosen around your tastes. Groups are limited to two to four people, and non-drinkers are welcome.

“The first half of the evening was a lesson on history and production of Sake/Nihon Shu. This included several tasting at a Sake bar. The second half of the evening was spent eating local cuisine and socializing. Kenji is a wonderful guide and I highly recommend this tour for those looking for something more personalized.”
