Always such a great time with tour group. We have done three tours with them total between 2024 and 2026. Each time we get a new guide and they are all fantastic. They are very attentive, English proficient and overall friendly people. We use these tours to find hidden gems we wouldn’t typically find as tourists. They are also very informative and you can ask them lots of questions and get them to assist planning the rest of your Japan trip. Suemi, Dan and Reina are all fantastic hosts and we will definitely be using their services in the future (and going to the companies new bar when it opens!).

I have been to Japan twice now and each time I’ve taken this tour with Suemi! She’s Absolutely Amazing!! This tour single handedly helped shape my love for Tokyo and Japan. The tour is thoughtfully planned and laid out, you get to experience things with a local that you’d never get to on your own, and the energy and fun are next level!! I always recommend this tour to any of my friends going to Tokyo and they come back thanking me for putting them in touch with Suemi!!
Honestly, if you're in Tokyo, you have to book a night out with Suemi! She took us to the coolest local spots in Shibuya that we never would have found on our own. It felt like grabbing drinks with a local friend who knows everything about the best food and vibes. Suemi is so kind, knowledgeable, and just a delight to be around. Such an authentic, fun night—don't miss out!
Suemi did a wonderful job to bring us real locals only places. When she means ALL-YOU-CAN-DRINK, she really means it lol we had bunch of alcohol and everything was so special that we decided to join her on different tour.
Suemi is amazing! She took us to a mix of fantastic bars and izakayas that felt truly local—some low-key and cozy spots that have been around for years, and others more lively with great food and fun activities like darts or karaoke. Throughout the tour, she was a wonderful conversationalist, sharing insights into modern Japanese culture and offering great recommendations for exploring Japan. We’ve loved her tours so much that we make it a habit to join one every time we visit. I highly recommend her Shinjuku bar crawl as well!
We had an incredible night on this Shibuya bar tour, easily one of the highlights of our trip to Tokyo. Suemi was absolutely amazing. She took us to a really cool, historic izakaya that we never would have found on our own, along with several other great hidden bars that each had their own unique vibe. The all you can drink setup made everything super relaxed and fun, and the karaoke at the end was such a great way to wrap up the night. Suemi is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what she does. She made the whole experience feel authentic and personal. If you want to experience Shibuya beyond the usual spots and have someone who really knows the area, this tour with Suemi is 100 percent worth it.
If you want to experience the true heart of Shibuya beyond the crowded scramble crossing, you absolutely have to book a tour with Suemi. We spent the evening exploring the local side of Shibuya, and it was the perfect balance of fun and discovery. Suemi took us to two fantastic, tucked-away izakayas that felt like a secret slice of Tokyo life—the kind of places you'd walk right past if you didn't have a local guide. Suemi is incredibly knowledgeable and made the experience so special. She shared great insights into the food, the drinks, and the local traditions, making us feel like insiders rather than tourists. She was so kind and welcoming throughout the whole night, ensuring everyone had a great time and found something delicious to eat. We loved every minute of it, from the lively atmosphere of the izakayas to the great conversation. It was honestly the highlight of our time in Tokyo. If you want a fun, authentic, and memorable night out, book with Suemi—you won’t regret it!
Amazing tour group!. Suemi was amazing & friendly. She took care of us & made sure we were having a great time. I recommend this tour group to anyone!.
I had the best night ever! Felt like I was one of the locals. Our guide Dan made it all happen. If there were a 10-point review, I'd give it a 10. Shibuya is where it's at if you want vibrant nightlife. If you literally want to become part of it, you should book this tour!
We did the tour with suemi and it was such a blast! She knew really local spaces and gave lots of cool information about japanese culture, lifestyle and izakaya etiquette. We were a very small group but that did not diminish the energy at all. Suemi was really friendly and had amazing energy and we became friends super fast so that we did not end the night for a looong time after the official tour was over. 10/10 would (will) book again (or some other tour of her)
Suemi was an absolutely amazing host! The night out in Shibuya included all-you-can-drink, izakaya, and karaoke, and she made sure everything was seamless and fun. She guided us through the last three hours and even stayed longer with myself and the rest of the group so we could enjoy a truly local karaoke experience. As a solo traveler, it was the perfect way to meet new friends and experience Shibuya nightlife in an authentic way. Suemi went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt included and had a fantastic time.
I had so much fun on this tour, my guide Nana was fantastic. We went to local izakayas that I never would have found on my own, had fantastic food and drank plenty of Sake! I couldn't recommend this enough if your visiting Tokyo
Nana is the best!! I got to play drums at the okinawan bar, along with many kanpaiiii! Food was great, we went to multiple izakaya.
Had a great time, and it was awesome going to the bars and trying out the food and drinks! Thank you so much for being such an amazing host.
Nana was an amazing tour host!! She made the tour so fun and loved the experience! Highly recommend for solo travelers!!!!
Amazing experience, love the izakayas and bars we went to, so much fun, especially the Okinawa bar at the last stop. Nana was an amazing host!
Nana was amazing! She created a fun environment and we talked a lot! She also helped me practice ordering in Japanese. She gave us history about the locations we visited as well
It was such a fun experience with Nana! We went to two izakaya’s and had good food. Definitely recommend booking this experience.
Nana was amazing and we had a great time. Would definitely recommend. We eat raw beef and fried pork. Also drank some Japan sower.
Nana was so amazing! We had a party of 4, and it was awesome!! Very good vibes and atmosphere, made new friends as well. Would definitely be back and also recommend!! Thank you much Nana!!
Highly recommended if you want to see and experience the wilder side of Tokyo^^
Nana showed us around the local Jujuku huts in Shinjuku, especially the Okinawa Jujuku huts with live shows. I also explained to my mother the culture of Kabukicho, Shinjuku. It was a great experience.
