The experience was more than what I’ve expected. It’s like having multiple tours in one and Akiko-san was so friendly and fun to speak with. And to ensure quality experience, the tour was strictly kept to a small group size up to 5 only. It’s almost like a private tour or class with that group size. The ramen noodles factory was exceptionally enlightening especially if you are a big fan of ramen. Speaking with the noodle master felt like a money-can’t—but experience. We got to ask so much questions, looked and touched different ingredients and doughs, and even got to try out packing noodles in the machine. The subsequent hands-on cooking class was also amazing as Akiko-san brought us through meticulously the steps to making good Gyoza and Ramen. She also shared with us tips on how to make good ramen back at our home country - sharing with us knowledge about substitutes, etc to make sure we can easily replicate it on our own. I highly recommend this tour if you have half a day to spare in your visit to Tokyo or Yokohama. The experience taught me so much about ramen and would love to do it again next time.

Our group of international guests had a great time learning to make the nerikiri and the proper way to enjoy matcha. Even our Japanese colleague learned new things that she didn't know before. A translator was also provided to help with communication. We even got to take home our creations in a plastic container. Would highly recommend to all!

When visiting a country, we are always curious about what local life is like. This home cooking tour offers the perfect immersive experience. Our host, Akiko, warmly welcomed us at the station before taking us to her family-owned, third-generation ramen factory. The machines impeccably clean, and we even had the chance to work on the production line, choosing our own ramen to make. Back at Akiko’s home, we prepared multiple authentic Japanese dishes with her detailed, step-by-step instructions. This wasn’t just a cooking demonstration—we were involved in every step, making it both fun and educational. Akiko and her family were incredibly kind, making us feel completely at ease during the 4-5 hours we spent cooking and dining together. She had put a lot of thought and effort into preparing every little detail. By the end, there was an abundance of delicious food and drinks for everyone. Without a doubt, this was the most immersive tour we have ever experienced.
