5.00This is really an amazing tour. You have to give this tour a try, go solo or with friends and family. This is a really cool tour, you will learn a lot and learn about a lot of neat places. Miley is awesome and is one of a kind. Trust me you will not regret it. It is a must do especially if you want to learn more about the culture, history and nightlife in Shinjuku. Must Do!

5.00Highly recommended tour hopping the bars and learning about the history and attractions of Shinjuku. Miley is a fun and engaging guide and you will quickly make friends amongst the small tour group and the random customers you meet at the small bars that the tour visits. Great for solo travellers. I have participated in three separate tours conducted by Smiley Walk Tours and I will do so again on my next trip to Japan.

5.00I found it breathtaking, adventurous, and despite being shy I’m glad to have met Smiley I person. She made my experience one that I will never forget. She was quite the tour guide and gave such a fantastic history lesson about Shinjuku. It is one that brings the last days of my holiday in Japan with huge excitement.
You’ll want to do it again

5.00This was my 3rd tour with Miley that was even more special since Japan Explorer also guided it. I enjoyed this tour so much that I re-booked it again 4 months later. It was that much fun. I highly recommend it. Never doubt Alan Under Armour.
Fun, Entertaining and Informative

5.00I have had the pleasure of taking two different tours with Miley. In 2023, I took her combined Asakusa-Akihabara Tour, during which the first part of this tour was featured in a local television news story. In 2024, I took her Shinjuku Night Tour, which also included Japan Explorer ("JE"). Both tours were very fun, entertaining and also very informative. You learn many interesting details and insights during the tours while having a very enjoyable and fun-filled time. Miley and JE really go above and beyond the norm to personally ensure that everyone is having a good time. Miley in particular always puts a personal touch on her tours and her sense of humor while interacting with everyone is priceless. During the Shinjuku Night Tour, Miley surprised me with a birthday cake and a little celebration for my birthday, which is just another example of Miley's thoughtfulness, consideration and personal attention. I highly recommend any tour with Miley and JE.
