Highlight of our trip! - Lin provided great insights into the Japanese history of each place we visited. He was easy to talk to and made sure our group stayed together in the bustling streets of Tokyo. There's so much we could say, but to keep it brief, the tour was fun, lively, social, and immersive. We loved sampling different sake flavors and finishing the night at a sake bar. 20/10 would recommend.

Non-Stop Excitement on the Shinjuku Tour! - Amazing tour! Our guide Kei was wonderful, and this is the perfect way to experience truly authentic local spots. We had the chance to try a variety of foods (and they were very considerate of my being vegetarian) as well as different drinks, all while learning a lot about the Shinjuku area. I highly recommend this tour during your stay in Tokyo! It's a lot of fun and offers great value for money!

Best experience you will get for the price - This is unquestionably one of the best tours I’ve ever been on. The communication was outstanding, and the experience and atmosphere were wonderful. I felt as close to being a local as a tourist can get. The information gained on the trip was incredibly useful for everyday life in Japan, and the food and drinks were delicious. I’ve already recommended it to a friend and will suggest it to anyone planning to visit Japan. It’s just as enjoyable for a solo traveler as it is for a group—no one feels left out. :)

Sake tasting was the best! - Sakura was so amazing! She took us to amazing places and ordered great food! It’s the best night tour I’ve ever experienced, so much food and fun. Trying six different types of sake was a bonus. My group of six shared so many great memories. I would do it again!!

A perfect overview of Shinjuku night life - I had an amazing time with tour guides Kei and Sakuro! They showed me all the highlights and ordered the best traditional bar food. They were so easy to talk with and share stories about living in Japan.
