What To Expect
Myth of Tomorrow
The Myth of Tomorrow" is a large mural created by the famous Japanese artist Taro Okamoto, located in Shibuya Station, Tokyo. This striking piece depicts the horrors and destruction of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as well as a broader message of hope and rebirth. The mural, originally created in Mexico and later moved to Japan, was lost for many years before being rediscovered and restored. Now, it stands as a powerful symbol of post-war rebirth and the potential for a brighter future. Visitors to Shibuya can view this iconic work of art in the bustling context of one of Tokyo's most dynamic neighborhoods, making it a poignant stop in the heart of modern Japan.
Shibuya Crossing
Shibuya Crossing, often referred to as "The Scramble," is one of the most iconic landmarks in Tokyo, Japan. Located in front of Shibuya Station, this intersection is famed for being one of the busiest pedestrian crossings in the world. Every few minutes, the traffic lights turn red in all directions, allowing hundreds of people to flood into the intersection from all sides, creating a remarkable spectacle of organized chaos. The area surrounding Shibuya Crossing is a hub of activity, filled with shopping, entertainment, and dining options, making it a vibrant snapshot of Tokyo's fast-paced urban culture. It's a must-see for visitors looking to experience the pulse of the city.

5.00Loc was great! He had some great stories and explanations of the Shibuya district. We saw areas that normally you may not visit or even if you went there you wouldn't know anything about it. Highly recommend Loc for the tour. Thank you!

5.00Nikki was my tour guide on my first evening in Tokyo. I learned local dives and culture I didn’t know through reading and the internet. She was engaging and shared examples of her first hand experiences from being a local in Tokyo. Because it was a rainy evening I had the luxury of being the only one joining Nikki’s Shibuya evening tour.
great tour
