Wasabi Farm Discovery Walking Tour
Overview
Like a little spice?
The Wasabi farm is a popular tourist friendly destination and is comprised of many large fields with a meticulously maintained network of small streams that constantly provides each wasabi plant with pure clean water.
Wasabi is an essential element in Japanese cooking, but a lot of people, even many Japanese, are not aware of where it comes from. Take a stroll through the Wasabi fields and discover all the secrets of the Wasabi!
We recommend you try some of the many different Wasabi-flavored products during your visit, such as Wasabi ice cream, Wasabi beer, Wasabi sausages or even a Wasabi burger!

Very disappointed. Very little discussion about wasabi. The farm itself is free to visit so I had an expectation that a paid tour would involve so behind the scenes access that the general public who visit for free don’t get. I would recommend the farm but not the tour. The guide also had little knowledge of wasabi, and spent most of the time talking about herself (from Canada, now lives in Japan for 30 years, karate instructor, English teacher now tour guide, married a Japanese man, adopted a Japanese child, lives in the foothills of a mountain) very disappointing!It was an excellent and enjoyable experience! Very informative tour and the wasabi ice cream was delicious! The farm also has wasabi beer and croquets!
