I was travelling early Dec’ during the off season when things are a little quieter so it was just TK and me. It’s good to know the tour will go ahead regardless of the headcount.
Bear in mind this tour does not include a large amount of food and drink. The food & drink isn’t especially unique, except for the Okonomiyaki which you could find yourself in Okonomiyaki-mura.
However, I still give 5 stars for TK himself! TK made the evening very memorable for me. It was great to chat with a local about a variety of topics. We only needed to resort to a translation app a couple of times. TK also acted as a translator allowing me to chat with some of the bar staff at the last bar who were serving locally produced ales! We also had a fun little language exchange, sharing funny English and Japanese slang. Be sure to share yours!
TK also suggested some other excellent bars and restaurants based on my interests and he didn’t let me down. I had a wonderful evening the following day thanks to his recommendations.
Great way to spend an evening.

I usually do one or two of these types of tours in each city I go to, and I think this is one of the better ones.
As a solo traveler, I really like the opportunity to meet with a local and discuss the area, and share stories. It’s also a great way to visit places I wouldn’t normally. Also, as someone who doesn’t speak Japanese, I am a bit intimidated to walk into an Izakaya by myself. This is a non-issue when going with a local though.
TK is great. He is very friendly, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. We spent a while sharing stories. Even though it was just the two of us, things never got awkward.
The Okonomiyaki was great too! I had it once before in the US, but it was a different style. I think the Hiroshima style served on this tour is much better than what I previously had.
I’d recommend this tour to anyone, and I am glad I went on it.
