1-day Tours

Enjoyed a fun experience with Ryo trying some food combinations from different convenience stores. Ryo provided lots of information about the different stores and how people use them. It definitely gives you the confidence to use konbinis and know where to buy different items. Highly recommended!

Thank you so much for your fantastic welcome! Everyone had an amazing experience and loved the delicious ramen. Thank you again for all your help!

Have you been eating ramen all of your life and not have a clue how it’s made? If so, I highly recommend signing up and learning all about ramen. The class was both fascinating and informative. Our guide (and store manager) Mitsuyo, gave us a great behind-the-scenes presentation of how they make their Michelin awarded ramen (without giving away any trade secrets, of course). I would have never imagined how much thought and creativity went into what seems like a humble bowl of noodles. They are obsessed with making the best bowl of ramen on planet Earth.

This experience was amazing! Mitsuyo was an excellent teacher, leading us through how really great ramen is made. We sampled all the key components individually, before enjoying the final product brought to life by their chefs. Simply the best ramen I have ever tasted! If you are a foodie or you just love ramen, you will enjoy this tour!

Amazing, the best experience had in Japan. Worth the price.

We loved our Konbini hacks tour with Ryo! He was brilliant with the kids and introduced this side of Japanese food culture so well. The best tour we took all trip!

Great tour!

The tour was great and our guide Sam was kind and knowledgable about the area. While we were aware of many of the dishes we tried, it was nice to get the history and backstory of the various items. Highly recommend for your first night in Osaka!

We had a great time on the tour. Mario was an entertaining guide with a wealth of knowledge.

One of the Highlights of Our Trip to Japan! My wife and I took the Harajuku Sweets and Street Food Tour with Shizuka Anderson back in May, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. We had such an amazing time with Shizuka. She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and fun to be around, and by the end of the tour it honestly felt like we were exploring Harajuku with a friend. One of the things we really enjoyed was getting to talk with Shizuka about DAN DA DAN and our love of the show. We even had fun getting toys from the gacha vending machines, which made the experience even more memorable. The food was fantastic, but what made the tour special was getting to experience places and foods that we probably wouldn't have found on our own. One of our favorite experiences was making okonomiyaki at a local hidden-gem restaurant. It was such a fun experience, and getting to make it ourselves while enjoying the atmosphere made it something we'll remember. Shizuka did an amazing job bringing everything together- great food, Japanese culture, local experiences, and plenty of laughs along the way. She was also incredibly easy to talk to and made the entire tour feel relaxed and personal. We still talk about this experience when remembering our trip to Japan. If you're visiting Tokyo and want to experience Harajuku in a way that goes beyond the typical tourist attractions, I highly recommend booking this tour with Shizuka. Thank you, Shizuka

The ramen tour was amazing and Hiroshi was a great host!

The Ramen Tasting experience was absolutely amazing. Our hostess Mitsuyo was lovely. She explained the process for making the ramen; we were able to taste the individual components along the way. Then we moved to the counter to be served a bowl of the signature ramen. Best ramen ever! This experience was fantastic and a must do for any ramen lover.
