Overview

Kanagawa is closely connected with the history of Iekei ramen, a rich style that originated in Yokohama and became popular across Japan. But the prefecture’s ramen culture extends far beyond a single recipe.

Choose Yokohama, Ofuna, Kawasaki, or Yokosuka and explore two local ramen shops with a private guide. Each starting area offers a different neighborhood atmosphere and mix of ramen styles, from classic Iekei bowls to other local favorites.

Rather than following one fixed route, this tour lets you choose the area that best matches your trip while your guide helps with ordering, ticket machines, and ramen customization. Two ramen tastings are included, making it an easy way to discover Kanagawa one bowl at a time.
