A must do tour of Shinjuku

5.00Our night walking tour in Shinjuku was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Japan! Our guide Nikki was fantastic, friendly, energetic, and incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and hidden corners of the area. Exploring the neon lit streets, tiny alleyways, local bars, and bustling nightlife with someone who truly knew the area made the whole experience feel authentic and unforgettable. We discovered places we never would have found on our own and learned so many fascinating stories about Tokyo and local life. The pace of the tour was perfect, and Nikki made everyone feel welcome and engaged throughout the evening. Her passion for the city really shone through and made the experience so much more special. If you’re visiting Shinjuku, this night walking tour is an absolute must-do. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a fun, unique, and memorable night out in Tokyo! 🌃🇯🇵

5.00Out of all the tours and activities we participated in, this was the BEST! We completed the Shinjuku walking tour with Daniel; a thoroughly engaging trilingual Argentinian hospitality student with an extensive knowledge of Tokyo and Kabukicho. Daniel was articulate and generous in his willingness to answer questions and recommend places to eat and drink. He willingly offered to take photos of our group and spend longer on places that were of interest- Would highly highly recommend this tour which covers history, pop culture, the red light district of Kabukicho, Golden Gai, and places to eat & drink. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
