Nagoya Highlights & Street Food Walking Tour [small group]

8 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

For those who prefer to eat their way through Japan, there probably aren’t many cities more “foodie-friendly” than Nagoya. With a large port and fertile plains, along with the wealth and resources of the powerful "City of Samurai," Nagoya has long had access to a wide variety of foods distinctive from other regions of Japan.

As we tour the highlights of Nagoya, you will be able to marvel at the gilded artwork and golden screens in Honmaru Palace, relax as you gaze upon the reflecting pond of Mirai Tower, and learn about the day’s fresh catch at a bustling fish market as you are led by an experienced, English-speaking guide through Nagoya on this full-day tour.

This tour will not only give you a taste of the wonderful flavors of the region and introduce you to some of the most notable landmarks in the city, but also provide you with the confidence to go out and try more "Nagoya Meshi" on your own.
