Experience Details
Japanese food (known as “washoku”) has been declared a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. It’s definitely worth trying, although sometimes it can be hard to find options that are vegan. Although many dishes do not overtly contain obvious traces of meat and fish, often evidence of meat or fish products are hidden below the surface. While they pack just as much of an umami punch as their non-vegan versions, finding vegan-friendly options in Tokyo can certainly be a challenge. For vegans in Tokyo (or those who are curious about the vegan lifestyle) come along and discover the glitz and glamour of Ginza, the city’s upscale district for shopping, bars, and entertainment. Experience some of the best vegan food in Ginza by joining this Vegan Ginza Tour!
