    We had a relaxing and informative afternoon exploring the Wasabi Farm with Naomi. She was a great guide who spoke excellent English (she was an English teacher in her prior life) and provided insights into not only all-things-wasabi, but also the surrounding region and Japanese culture in general. If you are a foodie interested in a deeper dive into the food you consume, or just want a slightly less standard experience while vacationing in Japan, I highly recommend taking this tour with Naomi. And try the wasabi ice cream--it's subtle and surprisingly delicious!

    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!

    This was a great tour! Our train was cancelled from Nagano, so we had to take the bus to get to Matsumoto. Sylvain and Carol were extremely gracious and stayed an extra hour so that they could give us the full tour. We had some great wasabi ice cream and learned a lot about wasabi! Highly recommend!

    Daio Wasabi Farm

    The base of the Japanese Alps is home to several Wasabi farms, from the small plots nestled among the multitude of rice fields to Japan’s largest Wasabi farm. Thanks to the fabulous natural environment of the region, a journey into this Japanese countryside is a unique experience not to be missed! Established in 1915, Daio Wasabi Farm is highly photogenic and the perfect setting in which to dive into the history and versality of this surprising green plant. Wasabi is an essential element in Japanese cuisine and is particularly renowned as an accompaniment to Japanese sushi. A visit to a wasabi farm is a world of discovery in all the secrets of this famously zesty ingredient. Please note that the round trip from/to Matsumoto and the Wasabi Farm takes approximately 30 minutes subject to traffic conditions. This is a walking tour and does not include “behind the scenes” access to any area of the farm.

    Our tour includes a traditional lunch designed to highlight the flavor of real wasabi, served with other local food. Under the branding of “Shinshu” – the old name for Nagano Prefecture – you can enjoy our loved Shinshu soba, Shinshu miso and other tasty treats. Please note, we can of course also cater to vegetarian and vegan guests and families with young children. During peak season, please be aware we are sometimes unable to make reservations in the restaurant due to the high volume of visitors at the farm. As a result, there maybe a wait time to enter the restaurant.
