This exclusive premium tour takes you into the culinary heart of Kyoto after dark — far beyond the usual sights. In a small group, you'll walk with a local guide through the historic Gion district and the atmospheric lanes along the Kamo River as lanterns bathe the city in warm light.

The focus here is indulgence: at two authentic izakaya, a carefully curated tasting awaits. Savor tender wagyu beef and fresh sashimi, sample 5+ selected kinds of sake, and learn from your guide what makes a great sake. Two drinks of your choice — alcoholic or non-alcoholic — are included.

Between courses, your guide shares Kyoto's food culture, the geisha traditions of Gion, and everyday life in the city. An intimate, relaxed experience for food lovers and couples who want to discover Kyoto at its most authentic and flavorful. Guide available in English, French, and German.
