This tour takes you around the Red Light district and the gambling area both of which are illegal in Japan. Plus cool eating and bar areas. Plus a lovely Shinto Shrine. Just be aware you don’t finish where you start so make sure you know how to get back to your accomodation. Our guide Danny was great

Danny was a fantastic guide and made our tour come alive. We learned so much and enjoyed our evening leaning about the dark side of Tokyo.

Super interesting tour with tons of knowledge about culture, this specific area of the city and things you would never notice just walking by. Danny our guide was awesome! He had a great sense of humor and did not shy away from some of the more taboo facts. Also willing to answer any questions (about anything, not just related to the tour). This was a more unique fun one than just your average city walking tour. We enjoyed it thoroughly - thank you Danny!!!

Tour provided a quick chance to see a small piece and learn about some of the uniquely Japanese activities in the city. Gray, my tour guide, was enthusiastic and well informed. He did a good job of covering many of the highlights in and around the Kabukicho area, not just focusing on the "dark side." He did a good job of explaining how the "dark side" activities differed from other large international cities. The tour was worth taking.

Polina was a great guide. Very knowledgeable about this “dark side” of Tokyo, but also careful about the subject matter. I was unaware of how things worked both within and around the law. Extremely interesting.

I have been to Tokyo many times, but have never spent much time in Shinjuku. The tour with Polina was a great experience and I learned a lot about the often strange nightlife in this part of Tokyo. Small group of just 7 people and a fantastic guide made this a very enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend the tour with Polina.
