    5+ Stars for Yuka

    Yuka was the best host! She was very kind and welcoming. The experience was very intimate. Only our party of 2. Yuka met us at the train station and was thoughtful to bring umbrellas during anticipated inclimate weather. Yuka guided us through a matcha tea making (tea ceremony) which was paired with traditional Japanese snacks. Yuka also made us iced matcha lattes to give us a different matcha experience! For the gyoza and sushi making, Yuka was very patient in guiding us through each of rhe processes which were completely new to us! When we were done with food making, we enjoyed our finished products and Yuka was thoughtful to offer a variety I’d drinks to pair with our meal. If you are in Yokohama, I would totally recommend booking this experience with Yuka. It was by far one of the best we have had during our many travels.

    This experience was truly...

    This experience was truly special. Making matcha tea, sushi and gyoza with Yuka in her traditional Japanese house felt so authentic and warm. Everything was hands-on, delicious, and taught with so much passion. Yuka made sure I left with new skills, great memories, and a deep appreciation for Japanese culture. I truly recommended this unforgettable experience. Thank you very much.

    Wonderful sushi/ goyza making and cooking.

    There is a ten minute walk from meeting place to host house. Nice traditional house in a Japanese residential area. Our host Yuka was most gracious and spoke English well. Yuka guided us through the whole process of making sushi and goyza. Yuka had tea, snacks and traditional Japanese drinks for us. The sushi and goyza we made were delicious. Yuka made sure to document our visit and sent us copies of the many pictures she took. It was about 20 minutes by taxi from Oshasnbashi international cruise ship terminal. Well worth the trip.

    Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Yokohama.

    How much does Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience cost?

    +

    Prices start at $72 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Yokohama usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Yokohama is not rushed.

    Is Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Yokohama, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Yokohama can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Yokohama and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Yokohama within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Yokohama?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Yokohama experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tokyo in 1 Day from Yokohama: Private Tour, Licensed Guide, Yokohama Ramen Adventure near Tokyo: From Factory to Home Cooking, 【Tokyo】JDM Daikoku Parking & Nissan Facility Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Yokohama?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Yokohama?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience?

    +

    Included: Lunch; and Guide: English. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience?

    +

    We will meet in front of the ticket gate at Odoriba Station on the Yokohama Municipal Subway line. The host will be waiting with a board that says “Cooking Clas” Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience?

    +

    Is Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Yokohama: Sushi & Gyoza Cooking with Matcha & GreenTea Experience if the weather is bad?

    +
