    Superb tour with Foodie Adventure Japan
    The whole experience was wonderful. Gizem showed us some incredible sights and superb eating experiences. Her knowledge is second to none and she really made the trip for us. Can’t wait to come back and continue to be surprised and excited through Foodie Adventure Japan’s magical tours. Thanks so much Gizem.

    Awesome vegan ramen and desserts Tokyo tour
    Awesome tour of the Harajuku district with amazing local and authentic vegan ramen and sweets. We explored several places that we would have never found on our own. Finding vegan options in Tokyo is hard, but the tour helped us find our way. Our guide Jackie from Foodie Adventure Japan was down to earth, and it felt like we were hanging out with friends for the afternoon instead of being on a tour. We also learned a lot about the fashion and culture in the Harajuku district. The tour is available in other districts.

    Experience crazy Harajuku differently 😎
    Today we had the privilege to enjoy a food tour (with gluten-free options 😍) through crazy Harajuku with Gizem! We had delicious dishes and drinks in exquisite places, whilst also getting a lot of insider information about traditions and everyday life in Japan. Gizem is an amazing guide and her good mood is really contagious! I highly recommend her tours to anyone wanting to get more from their holidays in Japan 😎

    Instalicious Harajuku Food Tour
    Giz is a very sweet and friendly guide with great knowledge of the area. She showed us places we never would have found on our own and even suggested places for us to go after the tour. Highly recommended tour!

    Great tour that isn't just about food
    Very much enjoyed this tour. I was pleased by not only the food stops but also the array of other areas we went to in Harajuku and the information we were given. Particularly good if you are short on time and want to cover a lot of ground and see some hidden gems that you wouldn't find without a local. Jackie is a knowlegeable, professional and friendly guide and can answer anything you need to know about harajuku or Tokyo in general. Would recommend.

    Excellent, fun food and sightseeing tour around Tokyo!
    The tour was excellent, Gizem and her team were able to include as much as possible based on what few hours I had to enjoy and to cover as much ground as possible. What makes it so special is that they know where to go if you are vegan, have food restrictions, or just want to try something very particular. I had been trying to get a better understanding of the city and try its food after a previous trip. Thankfully Gizem not only knows about the best places to try food and sweets, but she also has deep knowledge of the traditions, architecture, and culture. I finally had the chance to try real Ramen, and it was soooo good. I highly recommend arranging a tour with her.

    Amazing fun tour with Giz
    The tour with Giz was so fun that 3 hours passed by incredibly fast! She is very personable and easy-going, I felt connected right away and really enjoyed our time together. I also appreciated all the insights about Harajuku and the current trending fashion and food scenes from Giz, she's knowledgeable and very passionate. Giz took us to all the cool food vendors as well as all the cute spots for pictures. BTW, Giz is an amazing photographer! I loved all the pictures and boomerang videos she took for me. I couldn't have had the same experience without Giz! Highly recommend for Harajuku and Kawaii culture.

    Amazing day out!
    What an amazing day out! I had a great day really exploring Harajuku with Giz and sampling some fun, delicious snacks. Giz has a great insight into the area and is awesome fun, she made everyone feel welcome and it felt more like a group of friends than a tour group

    Totally awesome tour!
    Our tour with Gizem was first class! From our first meeting, our whole family connected and she helped make our whole tour a big win. This was our first trip to Japan, and we wanted to get to know the Harajuku neighborhood, but wanted to do more that just walk down the street. This tour was a perfect fit! Giz helped us by giving us an experience that we couldn't have had on our own. She was so nice, personable, and very knowledgable about everything! We will definitely be doing a tour with her on our next trip to Tokyo!

    A must do in Tokyo
    So the food in Harajuku is ok. Great for Instagram but not great on the tastebuds. Never fear Giz is here to save your kawaii day. Deep diving into the history and the kawaii food this tour shows you a very different experience of this region of Tokyo. Giz was a wealth of knowledge and a whole bucket load of kawaii fun to explore town with.

    That...was...RAD!
    Giz was extremely knowledgeable about the area, not only about the food but the culture as well. Food was really good and we got to see some interesting things along the way. Would highly recommend this tour if you're looking for some unique food trends around the city...even if Giz IS a millennial (inside joke ;P).

    A great time for the whole family!
    I went with my aunt and two kids, ages 6 and 4, on a private Instalicious food tour, and we all had a blast! The tour was well-paced so that we were able to try several different fun and super cute foods, broken up with pauses at cool photo spots where the kids got to take little breaks and play a bit. This kept everyone happy and my 4-yr-old didn’t even complain once that he was tired of walking (which he usually does)! Also, my 6-yr-old is handicapped and needs a wheelchair, and Gizem made sure we had no trouble getting around and navigating the crowded and narrow streets. It was really reassuring to have her there helping us out! Even though I have visited Harajuku dozens of times and know the area fairly well, I learned many new things on the tour, and enjoyed myself much more than if I’d tried to drag the kids around to all the places by myself! Gizem is a real sweetheart and is also very knowledgeable about Harajuku and Japanese culture in general, and she provided many interesting anecdotes as we walked and responded to all of our questions thoroughly. I highly recommend her tours, both for people who are visiting for the first time and those who, like myself, already know the area well.

Anna took me on the best tour starting with lunch in Shibuya and doughnuts/bubble tea in Harajuku. She also helped find all the vegan snacks at a convenient store as well. She is so knowledgeable about the vegan food scene and Japan in general! Highly recommend this tour and hoping to cross paths with Anna again soon!

First things first: I took this tour in German.

I joined the tour because I wanted to learn more about being vegan in Japan. What I learned from Gizem, who is extremely knowledgeable about the intricacies of veganism, is that it's extremey hard. There's something in everything basically.

But Gizem shares not only two absolutely lovely restaurants that are vegan friendly, but also gives tips on how to survive as a vegan if the only thing you have nearby is a 24-hour convenience store or what kind of edible souvenirs you can bring home to your vegan friends.

What I found especially cool is that this is not "just" a food tour, but you are also shown tons of photo spots and unique places. So while this is not the Insta-licious tour, you should absolutely bring your camera!

LOVED our vegan food tour with Jackie!

She has a great knowledge of how to vegan in Japan, which can be a real struggle. She took us for lunch at an amazing local restaurant for a traditional Japanese lunch which was all vegan. She then showed us what we can/can't buy in the shops which was super helpful and gave us SO much advice!!

We had a fab time with Jackie. She was really lovely and super super helpful.

HIGHLY recommend doing a food tour through these guys!

Giz is super friendly and knowledgable. I felt instantly comfortable talking with her. I thoroughly enjoyed all the food places, I never would've found them by myself. There really are so many amazing hidden gems in Tokyo. We took lots of photos at iconic places in Shibuya between food spots and even managed to see some square watermelons. Btw the doughnuts at the end are to die for! I would definitely recommend.
