Description
Discover Tokyo’s nightlife the local way. Not just by drinking, but by connecting.
This is more than a bar hopping tour. It’s a chance to meet and talk with real Japanese locals who love sharing their city, culture, and favorite hidden bars.
We start from Shinjuku Station, then walk through Kabukicho, Tokyo’s famous entertainment district filled with neon lights, energy, and stories. Along the way, you’ll learn about Japan’s nightlife culture, social customs, and hidden gems that only locals know.
Our final stop is Golden Gai, a legendary area with over 200 tiny bars, each with its own theme and character. Some play J-pop, some are movie-themed, and some are just run by friendly staff who love to chat. We’ll visit a few cozy spots where both locals and travelers gather, so you can enjoy relaxed conversations and authentic drinks together.
Your Japanese host will help you with translations, recommend drinks like sake and highballs, and make sure you feel comfortable and safe throughout the night.
We also take souvenir photos of a perfect way to capture your Tokyo night memories.
By the end of the evening, you won’t just remember the bars.
You’ll remember the laughter, the stories, and the new friendships you made in the heart of Shinjuku.
