The tour concludes at a beautifully restored sake brewery restaurant, where you will enjoy a 10-course French-style kaiseki dinner paired with locally brewed sake. Transportation, English-speaking guidance, workshop access, taiko performance, drumming experience, dinner, and sake tasting are all included.
