5.00Paulina was an amazing tour guide! She had so much knowledge about the Shinjuku and Kabukicho area - there there’s no way I would’ve been able to learn these things without having someone like her teach me. This was an amazing tour! I highly recommend it for anyone interested in the history and adult industry of Shinjuku and Tokyo!
Good times in Tokyo's dark side

5.00My wife and I had a great time on this tour exploring some of the underbelly of Tokyo. Paulina was an excellent guide and we learned a lot about some of the interesting things hidden in plain sight which are unknown to visitors. Definitely recommended.
Must do Tokyo tour

5.00Dani is a wonderful guide. This is a great tour of the other side of Tokyo. I arrived in Tokyo at 2pm and this tour gave me a good guide to return to several places on my list. Golden Gai, Kabukicho, Omoide Yokocho memory lane and much more. He told us a lot of the history with seriousness and humour. Dani provides lots of recommendations for food and even karaoke. Thank you Dani for a great evening.
Highly recommended
