Great tour!

We had a great food tour round the market. Lots of free samples, and we had the chance to buy wagyu beef, skewers, sashimi and snacks! Kawa was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun.

10/10 would recommend and do again

George was a YABAI tour guide! He made sure that we got the opportunity to try excellent sushi and Wagyu which were our favorites. There was a large diversity of food to try.
