Awesome experience! Don't miss it! - I had an awesome evening going on this tour! Got lucky enough to have great travelers in the group and all of us had a ton of fun. Han was an amazing guide! He was knowledge, fun, funny and an overall great person to guide us through the eating/drinking experience along with some history about Shinjuku. Highly recommend this tour, and if you get Han as your guide (I think he said he does it 3 days a week), then you'll have a great time too.
We hit 3 places and had different drinks at each one, including sake tasting!

A night to remember - We loved our drinks and karaoke tour with Ayaka. Brilliant way to see parts of Shinjuku we would never have known about and meet other people travelling around Japan. If you aren’t sure, just do it - you won’t regret the experience.

Sake and Singing - Three bars you wouldn’t otherwise find, expert local knowledge, and the promise of new friends - this is what you get from this tour. Excellent value for money - highly recommended for solo travelers! Especially those who enjoy singing - Aki can rock the classic rock hits!

Great support - A great fun night. So much tasty food and great to meet fellow travellers.
The support team were great I originally was booked into another tour but the guide became sick. Rather than cancel they were able to move me to this one and gave me lots of support with directions.
Glad I went.

Amazing tour with exceptional guide - Sota was an amazing guide with a wealth of experience, he guided us and showed the hidden side of Shinjuku, the parts that you wouldn’t be able to find without an experienced guide.

Shinjuku with Hajime! - I did the tour with Hajime and had such a great time. He was a great guide and taught us a lot about Japanese culture, food and cuisine. He also took us to basement bar with the coolest bartender. We did karaoke and had snake sake. Was a great experience! ありがとうございますはじめっさん！
