A tour for all ages! Let us show you the best places in Nagoya......or we can customize the tour according to your wishes and desires. We will hand you a one-day commuter pass for public transport and cover all the entrance fees...so you don't need to worry about anything, just walk with our guide and enjoy. Nagoya, a city overshadowed by glitzy Tokyo and lively(noisy) Osaka. Nagoya has always been the quiet, responsible sibling of the three. Nagoya is the city where samurai spirit meets industrial genius. It’s the hometown of three of Japan’s greatest unifiers—Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu. But that’s not all—Nagoya is also the birthplace of Toyota., Nagoya is like a living time machine with great food (hello, miso katsu and hitsumabushi eel). The roads are wide, the people friendly, and everything relatively cheap. It might be Japan’s underdog city, but that’s exactly what makes it cool. For cruise ship travelers: we pick you up 5 meters from the ship.

"There's nothing to do in Nagoya. It's just a stop-over destination". We know you've heard it before and we're here to show you first-hand that this is absolutely false. Nagoya's nightlife offers one of the highest energy, youthful and fascinating experiences in Japan—you just need to know where to look for it. Our local, long-term resident guides will peel back the layers of the nightlife. They will place you in the locations and situations that made them decide to call this place home. By the end of the night, you will also consider Nagoya to be one of your favorite cities in Japan. At the start of the crawl, you will receive a free beer or highball (your choice!), 4 shots of local sake throughout the night (any additional drinks will be at your own cost), and local residents as your party guides who can speak both Japanese and English. In total we will visit 4 unique locations to enjoy Nagoyan culture and people, with the option to end the night at a club.

What decisively differentiates this tour is the guide’s attentiveness to each traveler to make the experience memorable. Firstly, each traveler will receive three souvenirs which are hard to come by. 1) A pamphlet showing photos and profiles of wrestlers with English translation. The guide will walk you through it as you watch each fight. 2) A cheer-up towel for a particular wrestler. The guide will show you how to use it when the wrestler is going to fight; cheering up a particular wrestler will significantly increase the joy of watching. 3) A sumo booklet which tells pretty much all about sumo. Secondly, using an earphone guide system, your guide will provide real-time commentaries through your headset throughout the tournament.
