Tokyo: Shinjuku Local Bar and Izakaya Guided Walking Tour

Join a bar-hopping tour in the vibrant Shinjuku area with a Tokyo local guide. Discover hidden gems you would never find without local knowledge and learn how to party like only the Japanese can. Visit Omoide Yokocho, Kabukicho, and Golden Gai, taking you to izakayas and bars only locals know about. Your walking tour starts in the red lantern-adorned local izakaya area of Omoide Yokocho before heading to Kabukicho, Japan's largest neon-lit entertainment district. Here you’ll find interesting shops and unique characters that will leave a lasting impression. Afterward, visit the Golden Gai area where your guide's local connections lead to bars that don't accept general customers. Try local beers, spirits, and of course, Japanese sake as you immerse yourself in Tokyo’s colorful nightlife. Finish your tour at a bar where you can join the locals for some karaoke, a favorite pastime of many Japanese people. We generally go to the places mentioned above, but there may be times when we can't go to bars or izakayas due to circumstances. If you're worried about where we're going, feel free to ask in advance, and we'll provide the locations for the day.
