Maneki-Neko Craft Painting and Yanaka Old Town Foodie Walk (Hotel Guests)
Explore the heart of Tokyo's cultural past with our enchanting walking tour of Yanaka, a district that time forgot, starting directly from Nezu Station. This half-day tour is an intimate look into the historic charm of Old Tokyo, combining cultural immersion with hands-on activities that engage and delight.
Begin your journey at Nezu Shrine, one of Tokyo's oldest Shinto sites. Your guide will lead you through the stunning vermilion torii gates, similar to Kyoto's famous Fushimi Inari Shrine, while sharing insights into Japan's rich cultural heritage. Learn about traditional shrine etiquette, and seize the opportunity to capture beautiful photographs amidst this picturesque setting.
As the tour progresses, unwind in a quaint local cafe--the first in Japan to offer workshops on crafting the maneki-neko or 'lucky cat.' Here, participate in a workshop to paint and personalize your own maneki-neko, a unique souvenir that will remind you of your Tokyo adventure.
Wander through Yanaka's serene residential streets, where the pace of life slows and history resonates in every corner. Browse through charming antique stores and sample traditional sweets from local shops that have been delighting residents for generations.
The tour concludes with a delightful dining experience in a local restaurant renowned for its authentic Japanese cuisine. Enjoy a meal that captures the essence of the area's culinary traditions, surrounded by the nostalgic atmosphere of this beloved neighborhood (cost of food is not included in the price of the tour).
This experience includes a professional guide, a beverage, a personalized lucky cat statue, sample foods, and photos of your tour, delivered by email after your visit. Our tour is perfect for hotel guests looking to experience a different side of Tokyo, directly accessible from the port area, ensuring you don't miss any hidden gems.
Join us for a journey back in time in Yanaka, where Tokyo's old-world charm and tranquil beauty come to life, making this tour a must-do for those seeking an intimate encounter with the city's less-traveled paths.
