At three award-winning ramen shops, you’ll sample six completely different mini bowls of ramen, each highlighting a distinct style. These exclusive mini bowls - about a quarter the size of a regular bowl - are only available to guests on this tour. You’ll choose your own six bowls from a curated selection of eleven ramen varieties.
​

Between tastings, you’ll explore the world of ramen through visual guides and discussion, learning about its history, regional styles, and preparation techniques. The tour moves through central Shinjuku and nearby neighborhoods, offering a look at ramen culture in one of Tokyo’s most dynamic food districts.
