Itinerary

  • Nishishinjuku

    We'll be visiting the first izakaya restaurant here.

    1 hour

  • Omoide Yokocho (Pass By)

    Omoide Yokocho, a maze of narrow alleys close to the West Exit of Shinjuku Station, stands in stark contrast to all the bright and clean modern environs of the station. Tiny restaurants and open barbecue food stalls spill their smoke, noise and greasy steam over alleys hardly wide enough to stretch out your arms.

  • Kabukicho

    We'll be visiting the first second and third izakaya restaurant here. Kabukicho is an area of leisure and pleasure like no other, a kind of red light district. Vast citadel of the party and vice, in this neighborhood you will find plenty of restaurants, bars and nightclubs.

    2 hours

  • Godzilla Head (Pass By)

    Godzilla Head

  • Hanazono Shrine (Pass By)

    Hanazono Shrine

  • Shinjuku Golden Gai (Pass By)

    Golden Gai is warren of small bars just east of Kabukicho that preserves the atmosphere and architecture of 1960's Tokyo.

Great gastronomic experience

Published on Nov, 2023

Miharu was a great guide with lots of knowledge about the food and social history of the areas we visited. She chose a good variety of restaurants where we were able to sample a range of cuisines and have a true local experience. Highly recommend!

Perfect night out in Tokyo

Published on Sep, 2023

Fumi was a fantastic host. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He speaks very good English. We highly recommend this tour. Loved all the secret bars and restaurants.

A must for the Solo traveller/first time in Tokyo.

Published on Sep, 2023

This is the perfect way for the Solo traveller to spend an evening !!! Our guide, Fumi, made sure everyone in the group was engaged and having an amazing time. Even though our group ended up being a bit larger that normal he kept us all comfortable and connected. I would absolutely do this again. Thanks Fumi !!!

Absolutely beautiful and loved the whole tour

Published on Aug, 2023

Absolutely recommend this tour! Our tour Guide Mayu was pure delightful! She took us around Shinjuku to some traditional Japanese food restaurants and the food was amazing just so delicious and the drinks were very yummy too! We learnt a lot about Japanese etiquette and culture. My partner and I were lucky enough to have Mayu as our own personal guide! When we come back we would love to do this tour again :) Great food and fabulous company!

Small groups and great guide! Must do.

Published on Aug, 2023

Perfect tour if you like small groups and a more personal tour. We were a group of 3 and our guide was amazing. The price included all food and drinks. Went to a number of bars and restaurants where we were shown local drinking customs and etiquette. More importantly we ate dishes which we would not necessarily order ourselves which was a truly enjoyable experience.
