Itinerary
First, we're going to visit Shinjuku 3-chrome, where you can experience Authentic local teppanyaki restaurants and you'll make your own "Okonomiyaki", and "Monja-yaki." Enjoy the delicious food and drinks while mingling with the friendly locals. This is a great way to discover the real old-town Tokyo nightlife.
Next, we're heading to Omoide Yokocho. This narrow alleyway is packed with over 60 tiny bars and restaurants, serving delicious Yakitori, Motsuyaki, and other local specialties. You can enjoy the warm and friendly vibe of the place, chat with the locals, and taste a variety of drinks, from Sake and Shochu to beer and whiskey. This hidden gem will make your Tokyo trip unforgettable.
We visited a vibrant Japanese arcade where both kids and adults can have a blast! From playing Taiko Drum Master snapping fun photos in Purikura booths, racing in Mario Kart, to experiencing the thrill of Wangan car racing — it was the perfect place to enjoy Japan’s playful side together. (You get to chose one from the experiences above)
Shinjuku Golden Gai is a unique drinking district in Tokyo’s Shinjuku ward. It has over 200 tiny bars packed in narrow alleys, each with its own personality and theme. (only applicable when time permits)
After the arcade, we headed to a place where adults can enjoy Japanese sake tasting — with selections from different regions across Japan — while kids (and grown-ups too!) can have fun at the all-you-can-eat Japanese snack bar. It’s a great spot where everyone, no matter the age, can enjoy something special.

This tour was the perfect way to explore Shinjuku. We visited places only locals know, tried awesome Japanese pancakes, yakitori, and even did sake tasting. Our guide Juri was incredible — her English was excellent and she explained so much about the culture and the area. We asked her everything and she always had an answer. Such a great introduction to Shinjuku! Ps loved the Whattsapp contact prior!

Our entire family - ages 6 to 46 - had an incredible night. We went to three delicious places we never would've found on our own, and Shuhei was a delight to hang out with for the evening. He expertly led us around, helped us find the food we wanted, and entertained the kids for hours while the adults enjoyed the great food and drink. Cannot say enough good things about this tour and about Shuhei specifically. If you're visiting Tokyo from afar, and enjoy food, this is a must do.

Our guide Shuhei was awesome! Very articulate punctual and full of information! The food was interesting, spots we would not have found. My only complaint having done other food tours in other cities is that there were only 3 stops. I would have preferred smaller bites and more locations.

This was definitely a great cultural experience with our 2 teen boys. We got to learn a bit more about what teens in Japan do, like photo booths and go to a dedicated “snack” restaurant. I do feel it was a bit expensive for only one meal being included and paying out of pocket for the rest.
