5.00My family and I had such an amazing time on this 2-hour walking tour through Tokyo at night. Our local guide was incredibly knowledgeable, explaining everything clearly and in depth—from Shibuya’s bright and lively streets to its darker history involving the yakuza, as well as fascinating Japanese ghost and yokai stories. The tour ended at a sacred cemetery, which made the whole experience feel unique and unforgettable. The guide was also very friendly and happy to answer all of our questions throughout the tour. Highly recommend this tour for families or anyone looking for a different side of Tokyo at night!
Highly Recommended This Tour!

5.00This 2-hour walking tour completely changed the way I see Shibuya. Our local guide was incredibly knowledgeable, explaining everything clearly while weaving together stories of the district’s vibrant modern life with its darker past, including yakuza history and eerie yokai legends. Walking through the neon-lit streets and then ending at a quiet, sacred cemetery created such a striking contrast. The guide was also very open and thoughtful in answering questions, which made the experience feel personal and engaging.
Memorable place

5.00Really cool experience while walking down the streets of Tokyo and learning about the history in a spooky environment like the graveyard. My girl says she saw a fox or civet in the graveyard, but you never know, it could have been a spirit. Recommended.
An intresting and enjoyable night experience!

5.00The ghost tour was a great experience and it really went over my expectations. My guide, Amy, was very friendly, professional, and she was very passionate about explaining the history behind each location we visited. I enjoyed learning about the cultural background and local legends, which made the walk both entertaining and educational to the Japanese . The tour felt well-organized so it was very enjoyable. It was a fun way to explore the city at night while discovering stories directly on site. I would definitely recommend this tour to others who are interested in japanese ghost story or unique experiences.
