Overview
  • This is a private experience — exclusively for your group.
  • Pub crawls — or "nomi aruki", as we call them in Japan — are a great way to experience a local, lively side of Kyoto that most tourists never see.
  • Kenji, a certified international sake sommelier, will take you to two or three specially selected bars with delicious food and drinks tailored to your preferences.
  • Your guide, Kenji, spent many years working at a sake brewery in Hyogo. His duties included the pleasure of tasting over 1,000 sakes from breweries in Japan — and around the world.
  • Explore Japan’s sake, craft beer, and food culture in the heart of the city — with Kenji, a knowledgeable local guide by your side.
  • Even if you don't drink alcohol, you're welcome to enjoy Kyoto's cuisine with us, but all guests on the tour must be at least 20 years old.
  • It's important that we know about any dietary restrictions you may have. Please let us know when you make your reservation.
  • Group size: 2–4 people
What to expect

Experience Kyoto's cuisine, culture, and sake like an insider at a "machiya izakaya" (a bar restaurant specializing in drinks and small dishes, set in a traditional Kyoto townhouse). Rub elbows with locals from Kyoto at one of their favorite neighborhood "standing bars." Savor high-quality sake and Japanese craft beer at venues that specialize in them. For each tour, the selection of venues (2 - 3 in total) will be determined by your own tastes and preferences.
