Tokyo Ginza Deep Back Alley Walking Tour
Tokyo Ginza Deep Back Alley Walking Tour
Tokyo Ginza Deep Back Alley Walking Tour
For KrisFlyer members only
Highlights
What comes to mind when you think of “Ginza”? Luxury brand shops? High‑end restaurants? Those are certainly part of its charm, but Ginza also has a fascinating side hidden in its backstreets.
This is a two‑hour walking tour that takes you through six of Ginza’s back alleys. These narrow lanes are home to hidden shrines and long‑loved local shops. You will explore Ginza’s glamorous “front” streets and then step into its maze‑like backstreets to experience a completely different side of the district.
*This tour involves about two hours of continuous walking, so it may not be suitable for guests who are not confident in their physical strength. Please wear comfortable walking shoes, and in summer, bring drinking water. Cooling towels will be provided.
*Kabuki viewing is not included in the tour.
