The food tour Nothing too exciting. Bit disappointing considering the cost of the tasting fee and tour.

Yoko was wonderful. She provided us with a safe environment to try the puffer fish, which was a real treat. She also shared with us her culinary knowledge, which was extensive. She tailored the tour towards our interests and requests and added in special stops she thought we may enjoy, including meeting a famous calligrapher who made something special for our children. Yoko (as we learned from other guides as well) is an authority of cooking, having her own cook book that has been translated into different languages. We enjoyed our time with her and would highly recommend her as a guide for others.

For more than 10 years our family has enjoyed the excellence of Context tours immensely. This time is the first time this was not the case unfortunately. First I want to apologize that in the past I have written few reviews and feedback to the amazing tours we have had with Context. I now realize, more than ever how feedback is so important. Specifically we have experienced marvelous Context food tours in stunning places like Rome, Athens, Palermo and Munich. In Japan we have also taken amazing Context tours of many themes in Tokyo some years ago. Sadly, if I had to recommend Context based on this last experience in Osaka I would not be able to. Something that in the past I had always been able to recommend wholeheartedly. Context tour prices reflect the level and quality of an exceptional curated tour. It is why we, the Context clients, are willing to invest in such. Hopefully next time we can again have a wonderful experience as we have in the past.
