Here comes a new tour! To enjoy Nikko luxuriously, the name is ” Tour to fully enjoy sake, food and Irori fireplace in Nikko”. We’ll invite you to the world where you have never experienced in large Nikko.

Highlights of the tour

(1) Learning about Japanese sake from scratch enjoying sake in Nikko

① Watanabe Sahei shop


Is it true that good-quality sake never makes you drunk? What’s the weight of one rice bag in kg? How does sake change depending on the rice polishing rate?


We’ll explain the simple questions on sake in an amusing way. Let’s enjoy and make the most of knowledge and trivia of sake.


The popular Kikizake (sake tasting).There are 5 kinds of sake for tasting and you can easily find sake of your choice.

② Katayama Shuzo


For Katayama Shuzo’s sake, soft water with hardness degrees 2, running from Mt. Nantai is used. It is a unique experience to observe a traditional brewing method that is very precious now. Enjoy pure sake refined taking time.


We bet even sake lovers will be impressed with Katayama Shuzo’s raw sake that contains a little higher alcohol amount than usual sake.

(2) Nikko handmade soba

You will have handmade soba in Nikko for lunch. It’s OK to bring the sake you bought at the sake brewery! Let’s enjoy the combination of soba, which was very popular among people in Edo (former name for Tokyo), and sake.

※You can choose hot or cold tempura soba.

(3) Factory tour and experience and you are going to observe “That thing” essential to daily food on the table in Japan.
