About This Tour
Experience the nostalgic and deep world of Tokyo night with an English-speaking guide! Shinjuku Golden Gai is an area where nearly 300 bars and restaurants are lined up like matchboxes in wooden row houses built after World War II. The somewhat bewitching and seductive mood of the town attracts people, and in recent years it has become a tourist attraction for many foreigners visiting Japan. The standard fare in Golden Gai is a “Hashigo-zake” (bar hopping)! Our English-speaking guide, who is familiar with Golden Gai, will take you to several unique recommended bars. Enjoy an unforgettable night together! *If you gonna order more than 2 drinks, cash must be ready to pay at the bar.
