Wholesome, fun and eye-opening Shinjuku bar experience! - I had an amazing experience on this tour. It was only me with the guide, Tak, and I was travelling solo too so it made for some really great conversations. I was impressed with how easily Tak personalised the trip and made me feel so welcomed and relaxed. I’m sure he does this with all his groups regardless of size. The experienced involved some amazing local bar and food spots and Tak was educational, informative but also friendly and funny. I’ll be recommending this tour and hopefully Tak to my friends and family!
