Activity itinerary

Kameari Ririo Park
  • 10m
Welcome to Kameari! Kameari is the area where a popular national comic strip was set more than 40 years after its release. It is a traditional town of common people, full of city centre atmosphere. Our mame-shiba (small sized Shiba Inu) will welcome you. Unless, of course, you don't like dogs!
亀有中央商店街
  • 30m
Take a stroll through the old shopping street of Kameari with your guide. Stop by an everyday, unadorned Japanese eatery to taste its products. While soaking up the historical atmosphere, you can enjoy mochi/dango (sweet snacks made from rice) and menchikatsu (minced pork or beef mixed with minced onions and seasonings, kneaded together, shaped into a small oval or sphere, and deep fried in oil). Take a stroll along the old-fashioned shopping street, and if you find a store you like, take a peek.
亀有北口一番街商店会
  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Kameari is also a town where famous ramen restaurants compete with each other. Try some of the finest ramen in Tokyo, one of the top five in the city. In some cases, you may have to wait in line for more than 30 minutes. Talk with your guide and wait with high expectations for your ramen. If you don't like waiting in line, of course you can always get lunch at one of the other restaurants! Kameari has many delicious lunch restaurants.
Kameari Katori Shrine
  • 20m
Stop by the shrine that is said to be beneficial for winning and sports. It is a historic shrine with a history of over 740 years. If you are interested, purchase an ema (votive tablet) and write your wishes on it. If you have a chance, you may see a ceremony at the shrine.
La Rose des Japonais
  • 30m
Take a peek into a very delicious cake shop that once won second place in a world pastry competition. The glass cases are filled with dozens of colourful and beautiful cakes to enjoy just looking at. If you are tired from walking, take a break here to enjoy a cake and a cup of coffee.
Kameari Station
  • 10m
This is the last stop of the tour. From here, we will provide you with directions on your next itinerary.
