Great for hanging out with friends overseas - I went with a friend from overseas! My friend is a big fan of Yakuza and wanted to experience something unique to Kabukicho, but I didn't know much about it, so I asked him to help me out. We had a lot of fun hanging out at restaurants and host clubs in Kabukicho and Golden Gai! The guide was really knowledgeable about Kabukicho, so he took us to some hidden shops that are hard to find, and it was a great memory. Both the guide and the host spoke English, so my friend seemed to enjoy herself from start to finish! I was grateful that they were able to plan things flexibly based on our budget. I'll definitely ask him to help me out again when my overseas friends come to visit.

The real golden-gai - Golden-Gai is a really interesting area.... Went to places I'd never think to check out. The vibe was laid-back, and the drinks were top-notch. Shoutout to Chika, our guide, for making it a night to remember. Great for anyone up for something a bit different!

MUST DO! - Had a blast on this bar-hopping tour! Found some cool spots that aren't your typical hangouts. Our guide, knew her stuff and made it feel like we were just out with friends. If you're into exploring offbeat places, this is right up your alley!
