Omakase and Wagyu Dining Experience
Hiro-san was extremely personable. He insured that you were prepared for the food experience. He checked for any allergies or dislikes in food choices to make sure you enjoyed your foodie tour. He made it a fun time and explained everything before the food arrived e.g omakase - how to eat sushi properly and where each region each item derived . The Wagyu experience was just as enjoyable. The dining setting was in a private room, which was calmand quiet. There, he could explain the meat selections and how to cook do your liking, as well as the selection of pickled vegetables. Overall, It was a great food experience. Thank you Hiro-San!

Massachusetts is the BEST FOODIE GUIDE!
My husband and I are visiting Japan for the first time so we had to do a Foodie Tour with an Omakase Experience. Massachusetts made our tour so memorable. He took plenty of photos of us and shared amazing insights about the foodie culture in Japan and answered any other questions we had about the Japanese culture. I asked many questions and Massachusetts delightfully answered them all. He was patient and kind. I loved listening to him and his stories. I truly enjoyed this experience so much. Whenever we come back, I hope we get to do another tour with Massachusetts. Thank you so much for everything, Massachusetts! You were fantastic!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you and your husband had such a memorable experience on our Foodie Tour with Omakase Experience during your first visit to Japan. It’s wonderful to know that Massachusetts made your tour extra special by sharing his knowledge of Japanese food culture, answering your questions, and capturing lovely memories through photos. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him! We truly appreciate you choosing our tour and hope to welcome you both back to Japan for another unforgettable experience with Massachusetts in the future. Thank you again for joining us! 😊

Awesome foodie tour of Tokyo
Overall it was an awesome experience. Great food, great mini tour, and overall a great time. Naoki was our guide. He was a lot of fun and took us to some out of the way restaurants that were delicious. Be prepared that it is a lot of food, so come hungry! Pickup was a bit confusing finding the right location but we somehow made it on the first attempt 😆 And at the end he even helped us get a cab

Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku cost?
+
Prices start at ¥10,000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 1,408 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku?
+
Around 493 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Shinjuku: Izakaya Food Tour (3-4 Stops, 14+ Tastings), Matcha Making Class in Tokyo with Authentic Japanese Sweets Set, Tokyo: Asakusa Senso-ji Temple & Old Town Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku?
+
Included: A Certified guide by MagicalTrip; Japanese dessert; Photos during a tour; 2 drinks (alcohol is also available); and Seasonal Omakase nigiri sushi (Vegetarian menu available). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku?
+
In front of Black pillar (In front of "Omoide Yokocho; Memory Lane" entrance) - 3 minutes walk from JR Shinjuku station. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Tokyo Omakase Sushi & A5 Wagyu Premium Foodie Tour in Shinjuku if the weather is bad?
+
