The guide is a ramen enthusiast and has extensive professional knowledge on the subject. Unfortunately, the ramen places he chose are very far from each other. A trip requiring fast and long walking. Not suitable for elderly or unfit people.

This was an excellent tour! Frank was a great guide who was enthusiastic and passionate about ramen. Each bowl was delicious, and I enjoyed learning about a different aspect of ramen at each restaurant. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tokyo!

This tour really connected us to ramen and Japanese cuisine. Our guide Bunga was very polite, very knowledgeable and eager to teach us about ramen. He even prepared a presentation before every meal. On this tour we learned about the history of ramen, preparation of this meal, its crucial ingredients and different types of ramen. The food itself was delicious at every of the 3 restaurants we visited. In every restaurant the ingredients were a bit different and gave a whole new experience of flavours. We tried 6 different ramens and in every bowl there was about a quarter of a whole portion, but trust, by the end of the tour you will feel really full. Overall, would really recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn more about ramen and Japanese cuisine in general.
