非凡的旅游和指南！
What a cool and unique tour! I don't think my wife and I did anything else like it during our trip to Japan!
Our guide, Remi, was absolutely incredible! He was very knowledgable, funny, and just plain cool! My wife and I were lucky to be in a group that was just us, so we were able to have his full attention and get all of his tips about Japan, especially how to get around and places to eat (he recommended a restaurant that ended up having the best sushi I've ever had).
The knife factory was fascinating and provided a great glimpse of master craftsmen at work. After an in-depth sharpening lesson from Remi, I was able purchase a customized chef's knife from the factory and even got to watch one of the senior artisans engrave it to the specifications of my wife and I. As an enthusiastic home cook, the knife is now my most prized possession in my kitchen.
As a nice bonus, we were also lucky enough to stop by a centuries-old mochi shop and taste the absolute best mochi I've ever had.
Overall, this was a fantastic tour, and I can't overstate how much my wife and I enjoyed it! 10/10, 5 Stars!
Unique Insight into Sakai’s Knife-Making Tradition
We had an absolutely fantastic experience on this tour! Our guide, Remy, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Sakai’s history, particularly its knife-making tradition. Watching skilled artisans turn raw material into handmade knives was a rare privilege, and the opportunity to learn sharpening techniques firsthand was a highlight. We purchased a beautifully crafted knife, and we now truly appreciate the craftsmanship behind these high-quality tools. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and immersive cultural experience.
