My name is Saki, and I'm a local host in Nagoya. I love that our city has a more relaxed pace compared to other bustling tourist destinations. It makes it a comfortable place to live and explore. I'm also a big fan of our unique food culture, especially our love for miso paste in all sorts of dishes. One of my favorite areas in Nagoya is the Nagono district, next to the castle. It's a historic area over 400 years old, and it feels like you're taking a step back when you explore it. I love discovering new restaurants and hidden gems here. I'm also well-versed in the Nagono district, the Osu shopping arcade, Yagoto, and even Inuyama, which is just a 30-minute train ride away. If you're looking for a local's take on the best off-the-beaten-path places to eat, I'm your girl! Let's discover the delicious and charming side of Nagoya together!
My tour with Saki in Nagoya, Japan was great! I was taken to a couple of places without English menus I could not of experienced otherwise, and was able to eat at a working fish market. Saki was especially easy to talk to, and gave some great recommendations beyond the scope of the tour.

Saki planned the evening with local Nagoya food for us to try from entree, mains and dessert. It was just like hanging out with an old friend for dinner in their own city. Saki was very knowledgeable and showed off Nagoya and its local cuisine.
