Brilliant fun and oh so informative. A must do in Tokyo! - Just arrived from Kyoto and the difference is amazing. So great to see another part of Japan and have an expert guide to show us the best sites. Kane was so informative. He gave us so much information and was happy to answer our questions also. There is no way we have seen any of these areas without him! A must do activity if you visit.

Torikizoku rules - Bar tour with Naoya was the best night of our trip. He's full of energy and made everyone feel welcome. I got tipsy but still remember it lol.

Perfect night - Crazy fun night in Shinjuku with Yota the man 😂🍺. He took us to tiny bars we’d never find alone. Great convos and the yakitori hit the spot.

Unexpectedly fun and local - Didn’t think a walking tour could feel this casual and local. The spots weren’t touristy at all, and I felt like I was just hanging out with a friend who knows Tokyo well.

Streets came alive after dark - As soon as the sun went down, everything lit up and felt electric. We walked through the alleys and heard wild stories about the area’s past.

Tiny bars, big personality - Golden Gai was the highlight for me. The bars were so tiny and weird in the best way. One had anime posters everywhere and another played jazz on vinyl.

History hidden in the noise - I thought Shinjuku was just chaos, but this walk showed me the quiet layers underneath. That little shrine stop in the middle of it all really stuck with me.

Cool way to start the night - This tour kicked off my evening perfectly. From the buzzing lights of Kabukicho to the cozy alleys in Golden Gai, it felt like I got the inside scoop before the crowds showed up.
