5.00Paulina was a great, experienced guide with some great humor. She took us to all of the little spots in the area that would’ve been difficult to see efficiently on our own. Recommend!
Whew the dark side is interesting! Lol

5.00Paula was informative and very knowledgeable about the dark side of Shinjuku life. She kept it light and entertaining with a great depth of knowledge. It was great to be shown the small alley ways of the Izakaya
Great tour with experienced guide

5.00Our tour guide was a young woman from the Ukraine, who had lived in Tokyo for eight years. Her knowledge of Tokyo was tremendous. She was also very friendly. I give her top marks
Nice Tour!

5.00Loc was our guide and he was very informative and took us around different areas of the red light district and gave us some background of the different areas. His English was excellent.

5.00Polina was a very knowledgeable tour guide that took us to places we may never have seen or known. She explained the ‘dark side’ and no question was silly, answering them all. My adult son and I had seen some of this areas by day but had no idea of what we had walked past. Very enjoyable and just the right length.
