Reviews
We had such a wonderful experience, thanks to Kanako-san. She was incredibly helpful, warm, and welcoming from the very beginning. She is very approachable and made everyone feel comfortable throughout the tour. Kanako-san was also very detailed when sharing her knowledge about sake. We learned so much about the brewing process, flavors, and traditions, which made the experience even more meaningful. We visited three sake breweries, and each one offered something unique. The sake was smooth and delicious — truly enjoyable. She also recommended some great restaurants around Kobe, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we’re so glad we had Kanako-san as our guide. Highly recommended!
Bought this package as a 36 year wedding anniversary present for my husband and we throughly enjoyed the afternoon. Megumi our wonderful guide met us at the Uozaki station (which is small so easy to navigate), and we walked from one sake brewery to another. She was easy to talk to, and knowledgeable about the sake history and process. Totally enjoyed the experience, you have to try the sake ice cream, and hubby even bought sake for the family !!
all in all the event Mae’s up for a great afternoon, with very instructive information and a fair amount of sake drinking. Julien the guide tour wa very good and friendly. If any, the event should start at least 30 mins early and last about 4 hours instead of 3 to avoid dealing with unstable schedules of some breweries. sonwtomws they close earlier without notice.
