Sandra was warm & wonderful! Great tour w/teens and tweens. We also stayed and shopped in Harajuku and visited the park across the street too.

This food tour was so fun and cute! Sandra was our guide and she was fantastic. She knew so much about the neighborhood and the food and gave us really detailed tips and information. We highly recommend this tour as well as all Arigato Travel tours!

Michie was an amazing guide and took us to so many delicious stops that we would’ve never found ourselves in Harajuku. She also was a wealth of knowledge in the history of Harajuku, which was an added bonus. Everyone in our group remarked that this tour was their favorite part of our trip to Japan so far. Thank you, Michie!

While the guide was knowledgeable and friendly, the food stops on this tour were uneven. The sweet potato cafe, the hand held sushi and cotton candy stops were great! The rest weren't worth it. This food tour was very expensive for what you get.

Our tour guide Wes was awesome! He was friendly, knowledgeable and easy going. He also gave us recommendations for our trip to Kyoto.
It was just me and my daughter (14) on the tour so we had some time to explore different places, like a cool sticker shop and a few other stores.
We started at a dessert spot and ended at a dessert spot. In between we had savory items.
Was all the food kawaii - no. Was it delicious - yes 👍🏻

We had a great time on our kawaii food tour of Harajuku! Our 8-year-old daughter loves all things kawaii and she enjoyed every stop and became best friends immediately with our wonderful guide, Michie. Michie went above and beyond on our tour, ensuring we saw (and tasted) everything.

Nami was an excellent guide. We are a family of four with a tween and a teen. We all had a great time tasting foods and learning about Harajuku and visiting Kawaii shops. The lunch was fun and tasty. We would definitely recommend this tour and Nami as a guide.

We were really disappointed with this food tour! It was neither “cute” nor “kawaii”. My husband and I could have done a better job of seeking out kawaii food in Harajuku than this awful tour we were on. First stop was a matcha tiramisu shop (dime a dozen in Tokyo) onto a sushi roll sandwich shop with every item containing spam (that’s not cute nor appetizing), then a hard candy shop (nothing special at all as there are quite a few in the area) then lunch at a do it yourself Okonomiyaki grill (it was on my food list of things I wanted to do, so that was ok), finished by a piece of black mochi with a strawberry in the middle. Meanwhile I asked for the manga dessert and the guide told me that it was not included on the tour. After our group ate the bite sized mochi the guide took us to a pharmacy where we can buy 4 different kinds of Kit-Kat, however, before the tour, we found this place on our own and purchased Kit-Kats prior. I think all 8 Americans on the tour were so disgruntled by the end, the guide quickly scurried off into the crowds of people on Takeshita Street! Be ware the photos advertised for this tour are misleading!! Harajuku is known for its Japanese crepes and in the advertised photo there was a group eating the crepes, we did not get a chance to try them and there is also a photo of a woman eating a head sized rainbow cotton candy, that was not on the tour either. For the price of this tour for two people we were served a Michelin star omakase from one of tue top 50 chefs in the world the night before. Save your money and enjoy Takeshita street on your own. We thoroughly do not recommend this tour nor is it necessary in Harajuku!
