Meet your friendly local guide and head straight to the vibrant Shinjuku Sanchome area. Settle into a cozy izakaya where you’ll enjoy a drink (included!) while chatting about the photo style you're looking for. Whether you want moody neon shots or candid street portraits, this relaxed first stop helps you ease into the experience before the cameras come out and the night comes alive.

After leaving the first bar, you will be taken on a photo tour of some of the most iconic and at the same time lesser known spots in the heart of Tokyo. Your local guide/photographer will take photos of each spot and share information that only a local would know, so you will leave the tour not only with great photos, but also with local knowledge about each spot.

This tour is divided into two halves. Depending on your preference, you can choose either the iconic Shibuya Scramble Crossing or the observation deck of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building for a panoramic night view of Tokyo.

    What a sham! Guide gave no information or photography tips. Tour lasted 1.5 hours instead of 2.5. Absolute waste of money and time.

    Great photographer and guide. Really good experience. This was the perfect option as a solo traveler to capture photos of my trip and to see and learn about many interesting landmarks around Tokyo.

    I had an incredible night photo shoot in Tokyo with Gota! He did an amazing job capturing the city’s energy and lights in the most artistic way. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful — creative, vibrant, and full of life. Gota made me feel comfortable throughout the session, guided me on posing naturally, and knew all the best spots for stunning nighttime shots. His eye for detail and composition is exceptional. I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Tokyo who wants professional, artistic photos that truly capture the magic of the city at night!

    The photographer was excellent, fun and personable. He spoke great English and gave us a tour as well as a photo shoot. He knew all the hidden gems as well as the most iconic photos. We highly recommend him.
