Ryuki’s knowledge of the food scene combined with his vast knowledge of Kyoto and Japanese history made for a truly unique and fun experience. We tried new foods, went to a standing bar that we never would have visited on our own.

My daughter and I booked a Kyoto walking food tour with City Unscripted. We exchanged some emails with our guide Hanna to arrange meeting point and what we would be doing - a great start. Hanna was there waiting. The next 3 hours went in a flash. Hanna is a superb guide. Her English is excellent and a bubbly, fun person to be with. Her knowledge was fantastic. Highly recommend City Unscripted and Hanna.

Nisa was an incredible guide! She made the day so fun! Not only did we eat interesting and delicious food, but she took us to places we would never have found on our own. If you are looking for a great food tour, go with Nisa!
