3-Hour Guided Food Tour of Tokyo's Shinjuku Golden Gai

Let’s explore Tokyo's nightlife with an unforgettable journey through Shinjuku and the iconic Golden Gai. Wander down neon-drenched alleys, inhale the smoky aroma of sizzling skewers, and let the lively chatter and laughter fill your ears. Step into cozy, dimly-lit bars with retro decor from the 1950s, where each sip of sake warms you from within. Savour the crispy, juicy yakitori and the umami-packed flavours of local dishes, as the energy of this district brings Japan's old and new into vivid harmony.

Experience the history of a district that once thrived as a bustling post-war black market. Savour speciality ramen alongside locals, tasting the rich flavours that define Tokyo. Take in the glowing lights of Asia's largest and safest red-light district, offering a vibrant yet unexpected side of Japan. Visit different local food stops before weaving through Golden Gai—a maze of over 200 cozy pubs, quirky stalls, and karaoke bars, each just big enough for a handful of people. With every sight, sound, and taste, this tour offers a glimpse of the city like no other. Book now to experience a side of Tokyo you’ll never forget.
