Tokyo: Shinjuku Night Walk & Hidden Gems Tour

Tokyo, Japan
  • 3 hours to 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.)

Overview

Shinjuku comes to life after dark, but if you’re new to Tokyo, it can seem overwhelming. This private walking tour by night introduces you to the corners of the neighborhood where locals like to go, away from the typical tourist trail. Highlights include the lantern-lit enclave of Omoide Yokocho, and the neon-bright streets of Kabukicho where ramen shops sit alongside "izakaya" bars and karaoke clubs.
  • Skip the rush on a private Shinjuku tour and walk at your own pace
  • Go beyond the guidebooks, and discover Shinjuku’s spirit with a guide
  • Find bars and eateries that you might want to revisit later on vacation
  • Admire skyline views from the Kabukicho Tower with ice-cream (extra)
