Overview

  • Experience everyday life in Tokyo with a local family — something most travellers never get to see.
    Meet your host at a nearby station and visit a area supermarket together, exploring Japanese ingredients, snacks and seasonings. Then head to your host's home to cook a home-style Japanese meal side by side. No cooking experience needed.
    Sit down together for lunch or dinner and chat about Japanese culture, family life and daily customs. Every host has their own family recipes, so each experience is one of a kind.
    Finish the day like a true local at a area sento (public bath). Towels and entry are included, and tattoos are welcome.
    This is a private experience — only your group will join.
