Gunma Food Tours Guide 2026

How to taste Gunma properly: market tours, cooking schools, and a food crawl you can run solo.

By Updated

Gunma has 5+ food tours and culinary experiences covered in this guide, led by Ikaho Onsen Yaki Manju Street Walk, Kusatsu Onsen Gourmet Walk and Tomioka Silk Mill and Local Lunch Tour. Each entry below includes the practical details — what it costs, when to go, and how to plan around it.

Gunma Prefecture is Japan's hot spring capital, mountain playground, and silk heritage land — a landlocked prefecture north of Tokyo where volcanic peaks, therapeutic onsen, pristine highland forests, and the UNESCO World Heritage Tomioka Silk Mill define a destination unlike anywhere else in Japan.
