Description

Start your unforgettable evening tour right from your hotel in Shinjuku. Meet your guide at the hotel and together step into the vibrant, multi-faceted world of Shinjuku, Tokyo’s entertainment capital. Journey through the luxurious shopping district, where Isetan and Takashimaya offer everything from high-end fashion to artisanal goods. Make your way to Kabukicho, the neon-lit nightlife hub of Tokyo, where the Godzilla Head looms over a bustling area filled with entertainment and hidden gems. Kabukicho has a rich and storied history, once famous (and infamous) for its red-light attractions and its underbelly of true crime, which still subtly colors its atmosphere today. Learn about this lesser-known side of Shinjuku, which adds an intriguing layer to its already diverse character. After soaking in Kabukicho, head to Golden Gai—a historic collection of alleyways packed with tiny, uniquely themed bars. Each bar is brimming with personality, from cozy jazz spots to retro, Showa-era throwbacks, making it the perfect place to unwind and experience Tokyo’s past and present in one captivating area.
