Meet near Shijo Station for a two-hour sushi workshop with an English or Japanese-speaking guide. Visit Nishiki Market, watch fish preparation, make nigiri, temari, temaki, miso soup, and dessert, then get seasonal Kyoto sightseeing tips. The class welcomes up to 10 people.

“An absolute highlight of our family Kyoto trip! Our guides were kind, knowledgeable, and incredible teachers. I can’t recommend this tour enough for anyone visiting Kyoto. It’s most definitely a must-do! We got to see how the salmon is cut at the fish market, make miso soup, and then make three different types of sushi and it was all topped off with sake, green tea, and a homemade matcha dessert. Incredible doesn’t express how cool this experience was. Out of the many things we saw and did in Kyoto, this topped it all. JUST BOOK IT!!”
