Tour Itinerary

Wakayama is more than a gateway to sacred... 2 hours

Wakayama is more than a gateway to sacred mountains and coastal scenery—it’s a city where Japan’s ramen culture reveals its soulful depth. Born from humble “garage-front” stalls, Wakayama Ramen has become a culinary icon, blending pork bone richness with the sharp clarity of soy sauce. Locals call it Chuka Soba, a dish both simple and profound, enjoyed with pressed mackerel sushi and a side of nostalgia. In Wakayama, every bowl tells the story of a working-class meal elevated into an art form. To taste it is to taste the city itself—honest, bold, and quietly proud of its traditions.
