So great! We never would have been knowledgeable enough or brave enough to find the deliciousness to which Taiga led us on our food tour. Didn’t even know akashiyaki was a thing. How small can a gyoza shop be? Now we know. Taiga was an awesome, knowledgeable, friendly host to spend a few hours with tasting the delights of Kobe.

Hamu was fabulous! Wonderful English and knows the area really well. She very much loves what she does as she has so much history and cultural knowledge of the area.

Taiga was awesome, knowledgeable and so friendly. We would not have been brave enough to try akashiyaki or to dive into the teeny gyoza shop without our host. Really fun afternoon overall.

Rio was great even though he said that I was his first tour it certainly didn’t seem like it. Rio had a wealth of knowledge and I felt like a “local “ walking the streets of Kobe with Rio. I even learned a little Japanese along the way. I highly recommend Rio for anyone seeking to learn more about Kobe and to find hidden treasures of the city
