What To Expect
Omoide Yokocho
Omoide Yokocho (思い出横丁), also known as "Memory Lane," is a famous narrow alleyway in Shinjuku filled with tiny, old-fashioned bars and eateries. It’s one of the best places to experience Tokyo’s nostalgic post-war atmosphere. We'll take a commemorative photo here with a DSLR camera. (The photos will be sent to your phone at the end of the tour.) Located just outside Shinjuku Station’s west exit, this area is packed with yakitori (grilled chicken skewers) stalls, ramen shops, and small izakayas (Japanese pubs).
Kabukicho
Kabukicho is Japan’s largest entertainment district, located in Shinjuku. Known as the "Sleepless Town," it’s filled with neon lights, bars, restaurants, karaoke spots, and unique themed establishments. It’s a must-visit place to experience Tokyo’s vibrant nightlife. Here, we'll take a commemorative photo with a DSLR camera. (The photos will be sent to your phone at the end of the tour.) We’ll visit an izakaya that serves the most delicious sashimi and Japanese cuisine. Then, we’ll stop by another izakaya

A great night with unexpected turnes

5.00My partner and I had an absolutely incredible time on our Tokyo pub crawl with Hero and Tomaki. Hero speak excellent English, which made the whole experience smooth, fun, and easy to follow. From the moment we met them, they were welcoming, energetic, and genuinely excited to show us the city’s nightlife. They took us to a great mix of bars—some hidden local spots we never would have found on our own—and shared interesting stories about the area, Japanese drinking culture, and the drinks we tried. They made sure we felt included and comfortable, and their upbeat vibes kept the group laughing the entire night. We also appreciated how organized everything was, while still feeling relaxed and spontaneous. Hero and Tomaki really went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable last night out in Tokyo. If you’re looking for a fun, well-guided, English-friendly pub crawl, we highly recommend joining one with Hero and Tomaki. It was one of the highlights of our trip!

Hanging out with a Japanese friend…

5.00Unbelievable tour. Tomoki is an amazing guide and cool guy. He had so many great stories about his life and the area. Tour felt more like hanging out with someone it would be a privilege to call a friend. He was even flexible in the tour, giving me the chance to see more of Omoide Yokocho.
