Highlights

Discover the vibrant neon-lit streets of Shinjuku by visiting three unique spots in a fun and efficient way. While Shinjuku may seem glamorous at first glance, I'll introduce you to its hidden, darker side—known only to locals. From iconic landmarks like the Godzilla statue to eccentric aspects and host bars, you'll experience Shinjuku beyond just dining.


Enjoy Shinjuku safely while savoring delicious local cuisine, and immerse yourself in the area's unique culture and customs. Let’s share some drinks like old friends, with draft beers such as Sapporo. I’ll guide you to the best local bars—each group will handle their own payments, but I'll ensure we visit places that accept credit cards for your convenience.


With a guide, Shingo who has traveled to over 20 countries, this tour is not just about Japanese culture but also full of engaging conversations on a wide range of topics. Experience Shinjuku’s local secrets, fascinating history, and tasty food for an unforgettable night out.

    When we are gathered, let's get to know each other. Then, prepare to immerse yourself in Shinjuku's drinking street, known as Memory Lane. We'll start at Memory Lane and explore the nostalgic Showa-era taverns. You'll enjoy the atmospheric contrast compared to the bustling business district of Kabukicho in Shinjuku. In Memory Lane, you'll also get a glimpse of Shinjuku's history. Let's walk down this street, allowing your imagination to wander towards the background of how this lane came into existence and the daily lives of the people back then! Since it's not always easy to come across retro scenes, We recommend capturing them in photographs! We will stop by one of the pubs and enjoy some Japanese street food, such as skewered meat (Yakitori), beer stew, or seafood. Also, you will find the iconic Highball, an alcoholic beverage originating from this very place. Let's enjoy local foods and drinks here.
