Shinjuku night walking tour - Really enjoyed this walking tour and Hiroshi was very entertaining and a wealth of information. Highly recommend this tour for those who want to learn about the nightlife culture (and the places locals frequent for food and a big night out) as well as learning about Tokyo’s red light district. Thank you Hiroshi for an enjoyable tour!

Amazing Tour/Guide - Our family of 5 loved this tour. Loc, the tour guide spoke excellent English and took us through so many interesting things withing the Shinjuku Kabuckicho area. He answered all of our questions regarding the areas and Japanese culture. We go through the red light district so could be PG-13. We loved the tour/highly recommended.

If you book any tour while you are in Japan book this tour. - Kumi was an amazing guide! Highly knowledgeable and outgoing. Easily the best part of our entire trip to Japan was Kumi’s tour.

If information is what you want, you will get it - Our guide, Loc, was very willing to answer all and every question we had, and he was detailed and clear. He also didn't rush but also didn't take the time schedule casually. Also, note to future customers: the tour description has a clear emphasis on the LGBTQ part of Shinjuku, so expect 15 minutes out of the 2 hours spent on that subject

Good guide, weak company - The visit was very pleasant and enlightening. The guide was very friendly and explained correctly. However, the company did not behave properly, since we had improperly waiting for other participants to arrive after stipulated time.
