We had a great time tasting all the food and the presentation from the Chef at our last stop. Our guide even explained a lot of history, we met at a Shinto shrine and were able to do the cleansing ceremony before the tour. He also explained a lot about the market food and helped us pick out the right tea to bring home!”
