Discover the flavors of Otaru on this private, fully customizable food tour led by your government-licensed local guide. Famed across Hokkaido for its glittering canal and some of the freshest seafood in Japan, Otaru is a paradise for food lovers. Begin among the bustling stalls of Sankaku Market, steps from the station, where you can taste sea urchin, snow crab and salmon roe and savour a kaisen-don bowl piled high with the morning's catch. Stroll the picturesque Otaru Canal as your guide shares tales of the town's herring-fishing heyday, then wander down Sakaimachi Street, an old merchant quarter lined with restored Meiji-era buildings, sweet shops and sushi counters. As a private tour for your group only, the pace and stops are up to you. Tell your guide your tastes and dietary needs and they will tailor the day around them, so you eat like a local and leave with a deeper feel for Otaru's seafaring culture.
