Description
OverView
| Atami has a long history of being a retreat destination and has attracted many VIPs in Japan. There are many small local food shops with a long history, providing quality ingredients and food to traditional ryokans, as well as for local residents of Atami.
This walking tour is to visit three local food shops offering indispensable ingredients to Japanese cuisine, which include green tea, wasabi zuke(pickles), katsuobushi (dried skipjack tuna used for Japanese dashi stock) and tofu. Let’s learn about history, products (including samples!) and more, directly from the shop owners (or staffs) while an English-speaking guide accompanies the guests for smooth communication.
To ensure the quality interaction at the each shop, the number of the participants is limited to six.
Tour on a different day/time or a private tour may be arranged, if requested at least by 4 weeks in advance of the tour date. |
