Definitely recommend - Bell was amazing and we had so much fun on our tour! We’ve been to Tokyo a bunch, but had never done a proper night walk of shinjuku and this was the perfect way to do it!

Outstanding experience with Kay - I’ve Visited about 10 different countries on six different continents so far. Every visit I get a tour guide to show me around and by far Kay is the best tour guide I’ve ever had. Kay made learning about Tokyo so fun and exciting to the point where I don’t want to leave. she made this experience worthwhile and is only our first day. My friends and I adore having her and she is just a gem to have around. I could not give a higher recommendation as a tour guide.

Bar Tour! - Benjamin was an absolutely phenomenal tour guide! From start to finish, he made our Tokyo bar-hopping experience unforgettable. His deep knowledge of the local scene, hidden gems, and cultural insights brought the night to life in a way we never expected. Every stop felt carefully curated, and his fun, friendly personality kept the whole group energized and engaged. We tasted amazing drinks, met fascinating people, and felt completely safe and welcomed throughout. Benjamin went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a fantastic time. We can’t recommend him enough—he truly made our night in Tokyo a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

- Benjamin was friendly, easy to talk to and a great guide. I’m glad we had him to help us navigate our first night in Tokyo. It was really interesting to hear from an expat who’s made his home in Japan. As teachers who’ve taught abroad, I appreciated his perspective. Thx for a fun night!
