Our tour will take you through the charming area of Yanaka, filled with nostalgia and rustic charm. Our tour will offer you a sightseeing opportunity different from the “big city” feel of other parts of Tokyo. Yanaka was one of the few areas that survived the Great Kanto Earthquake and Fire of 1923 and was spared the Allied fire bombings during WWII. An afternoon stroll down the tiny side streets that dissect the area south of Nippori Station will highlight the diversity of craft still being produced in the area: textiles, ink prints, wood carvings, traditional cuisines, stationery, pottery, jewelry, and much more. You will have the chance to try local street snacks, stop by shops that are over 100 years old, see local shrines and temples and enjoy a regional and seasonal lunch, before ending with a traditional tea ceremony with Wagashi (traditional Japanese sweet). By the end of this lovely tour, you will have tried a lot of different Japanese dishes and drinks that locals LOVE!

We thoroughly enjoyed our food tour! The tea ceremony was extra special and all the food along the way was delicious and our guide informative. We (two 50+ year olds and one 15 year old) highly recommend this tour. It was a highlight of our trip and we liked doing it early in our trip so we could use the knowledge throughout our trip.

Yuko was an excellent guide as she strolled with us through Yanaka. We tasted everything from coffee to sake and from sweets to soba. She explained about the foods and the local culture. We even participated in a formal tea ceremony at a very special family-owned shop that’s been around for generations. What a treat!

This was such an enjoyable and interesting tour, in Yanaka, a part of Tokyo which we would not otherwise have known about. Our excellent guide, Josh, took us to several small food shops to sample various delicious savoury and sweet things, and then for lunch. We ended with a beautiful tea ceremony, using very old family heirloom bowls. This was a lovely experience. Josh also showed us many other interesting places in Yanaka. As it is cherry blossom season it looked especially pretty. He was very knowledgeable. We liked Yanaka so much that we went back a few days later and ate the same snacks and had lunch at the same place! We would highly recommend this tour.
