Experience Details
To start the day energized, there's nothing like a bowl of ramen — except maybe two! Led by a ramen expert, start your day strong in Kyoto by exploring alleyways and cobblestone streets in search of a delicious ramen breakfast. You'll visit two distinct neighborhoods, learn insights on the old capital's long-standing ramen culture, and slurp away at two delectable mini bowls — a classic Kyoto ramen and a more modern kind — to find your new favorite.
This lively introduction to Japan's most famous noodle dish takes place in the morning when you can enjoy a more leisurely atmosphere with fewer crowds. Meet your guide at a cafe near Kyoto Station, where you’ll receive an introduction to the area’s ramen culture and learn details about the history of Kyoto ramen and its cultural significance to locals to this day before visiting your first ramen stop.
Once you reach the restaurant, you'll sit down to enjoy your first bowl (roughly half the size of a regular ramen) before hitting the streets again. You'll then explore another neighborhood in central Kyoto, where you'll enjoy your second mini bowl of ramen. Find out whether you prefer classic Kyoto-style ramen or a more contemporary kind.
Your guide is a ramen expert who will introduce you to the local ramen culture: be sure to ask for recommendations on restaurants and kinds of ramen to make the most of your trip. This ramen tour could become your most unforgettable breakfast experience in Kyoto!
