In three hours, you’ll sample the most sensational street food and restaurant dishes on offer, tantalizing treats treasured for their iconic Japanese flavors and loved by the locals. Stopping at two restaurants, you’ll sink your teeth into at least 10 sumptuous dishes - you won’t go hungry!
Missing out on the Gion district of Kyoto would be an extraordinary shame for any traveler - the district is abuzz with vibrant nightlife and abundant sensational restaurants! Your guide will provide insightful and engaging commentary as you wander the wonderful streets, leading you to two restaurants that’ll serve you the finest regional cuisine that captures the essence of Kyoto.
Accompanying your food, you may like to try a shochu or even sake (Japanese rice wine). In these ‘tachinomi’, you’ll be served regional specialities on small plates, in the tapas style. The vibe in these restaurants is lively and joyous - this is where locals love to convene after work with colleagues and friends. You’ll feel like a true Kyoto native here!
As well as trying the tantalizing dishes that make Kyoto famous, your guided tour will give you a wonderful overview of the city itself, from its architecture to its culture. You’ll learn why the name ‘geiko’ is used instead of ‘geisha’, and admire the difference between the traditional architectural style of Ponto-cho versus the new areas populated by younger couples.
It’s a fascinating, full-flavored adventure in the captivating districts of Kyoto!
