Beware of “2 beers Kota” he claims he will only have 2 beers & be super boring - that was far from the truth what a liar - Beware of this tour if you get a guide named “two beers Kota.” The tour was a full 14 persons from a mix of the US, AU, UK, Germany (I’m sure I’m missing some) and right off the bat Kota assured us he will only be having two beers which set the mood of the tour. The first venue was a yakitori bar where for a low flat price you could practically have all you can drink and eat. About ten minutes in mister “two beers” is clearly already past his two beer limit and our group is getting a bit loud considering this is Japan. We reached our limit and was ushered to the next venue, which was a sake bar. Which is where things took a turn. Again, for a ridiculously small flat fee we got a six course sake “flight” and our group of 14 westerners was starting to get rowdy, even starting to talk to the locals who were sitting at the table next to us. After a short 30 minutes and six shots of sake our group was in full bonding mood and Lo and behold we are literally getting kicked out! Can you believe it, Kota was making us have so much fun the bar literally kicked us out. Apparently unlike America you’re not allowed to have fun in a japanese sake bar. Ridiculous. Anyway Kota, who clearly is a liar about his supposed two beer limit, takes us to a dark basement bar where, again for a small flat fee we have unlimited drinks from a western style bar. At this point I am panicking because when it comes to cocktails and unlimited it can only lead to too much fun and potential black outs. Mind you Kota is way beyond his two beer limit and is taking shots and making sure all 14 guests are having fun without anyone left out. Now we were a rowdy bunch so we are way past the 3 hour tour schedule and we had to kidnap Kota and make him stay and drink with us since we need a local to transrate because as everyone knows Japanese people cant speaka engrish which everyone in the group has admitted is annoying af. So even though it is now past 1am and the basement bar is now kicking us out we drag Kota to golden gai. Scratch that we for all intents and purposes kidnapped Kota who kept claiming he needed to meet up with his “girlfriend” (yea sure buddy). And you won’t believe what he does - he ditches us around 2am and now we have to keep the party going all on our own. I ended up getting home around 4am and I have to admit I have no recollection of what happened between 2 and 4am. To make matters worse my son locked me out of our vrbo so I had to find an Onsen around the corner and sleep in a luxurious Japanese spa for like $30. Overall what a terrible experience!

Lovely tour guide- good intro - Lovely experience- Naoya was lovely. A good introduction to Tokyo. It was good to get a lay of the land with a local as Tokyo can be a bit overwhelming. I did this on my first evening and I would recommend it.
