Description

Ginza Tour: Elegant Nightlife & Izakaya Culture Like a Local Discover how locals spend their evenings in one of Tokyo’s most refined neighborhoods. While Ginza is known for its upscale boutiques and polished streets, it also hides cozy back alleys filled with warm, inviting izakayas where people relax after work over drinks and shared dishes. On this guided walking tour, you’ll enjoy a variety of carefully selected Japanese foods — from street-inspired snacks to comforting izakaya fare — all paired with drinks like sake, highballs, and cocktails. Your English-speaking guide will share insights into how Japanese people enjoy nights out: from casual after-work rituals to the social flow of eating, drinking, and chatting with friends. This is your chance to experience Tokyo evenings not as a tourist, but like a local. Shimbashi Tour: Real Tokyo Night Out with Food, Drinks & Atmosphere If you want to see how Tokyo truly unwinds after dark, Shimbashi is the place to go. This is where salarymen and locals gather for food, drinks, and good company — not in flashy bars, but in lively alleyways full of character and flavor. Join a guided tour through this buzzing area, where you'll sample authentic Japanese dishes and enjoy drinks in relaxed, no-frills spots. Think standing bars, tiny izakayas, and the kind of atmosphere where conversation flows as easily as the sake. Along the way, your guide will show you how locals eat, drink, and enjoy their evenings — giving you a firsthand taste of Tokyo’s real nightlife culture.
