Experience Details
Ramen is more than just a noodle dish in Japan; it’s comfort food perfected over the course of a hundred years. Hot, savory broth, thick chewy noodles, and flavorful toppings make every bowl a delight. You can find ramen almost everywhere in Tokyo, but with so many options, how do you find the perfect bowl?
On this tour, local ramen expert Hiroshi will guide you to two of Tokyo’s best ramen shops. Born in Kitakata, one of Japan’s top three ramen cities, Hiroshi grew up in a family of ramen makers and has spent his life exploring hundreds of ramen eateries across the country. He even created an English-language map app, “Ramen Beast,” to help fellow noodle lovers discover top spots. Hiroshi has also worked with Michelin-starred restaurants, training staff, and sharing his expertise.
During the tour, Hiroshi will share fun tips, insider trivia, and the history behind Japan’s beloved noodle bowls. You’ll try a rich, hearty ramen at one shop and a lighter, delicate style at the next.
This is a personalized experience, allowing your tour to be tailored to your specific tastes and preferences.
Hiroshi will meet you at your preferred location and guide you to the best ramen in the area. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned foodie, this tour is a fun, flexible way to taste Tokyo’s ramen culture like a local.
