Description
Meet your professional guide in front of the Kitakata Ramen shop located at the entrance of Omoide Yokocho, and step into the alleyway. Walk through the narrow lanes filled with the savory aroma of grilled skewers and the warm glow of red lanterns. Learn about the history of the area, which began as a black market in 1946, and discover why the culture of street stalls still thrives today.
Next, head to the neon-lit streets of Kabukicho. Stand beneath the towering Godzilla Head and capture the perfect trick photo as it roars and emits smoke. Hear fascinating stories about Godzilla, including how it became a special resident of Shinjuku and the model used for the statue.
Continue to the Golden Gai, a maze of narrow alleys lined with over 200 tiny bars. Learn about the preservation efforts by cultural figures in the 1960s-80s, how to choose a bar as a beginner, and the diverse themes of bars, from literary to Showa-era music and horror.
The tour wraps up at a casual local izakaya known for its great value and extensive selection of Japanese sake. Here, you'll enjoy an all-you-can-drink plan paired with a seasonal Japanese course meal featuring authentic, everyday dishes loved by locals—offering a truly down-to-earth taste of Japan.
