Good intro to Shinjuku - Very interesting tour that covers the gamut from the red lights district to a shrine to the gayborhood. Loc was excellent and answered all my questions.

A must visiting Tokyo after dark - As a solo traveller, I wouldn’t explore the darker neighbourhoods of Tokyo alone . Loc - The guide was very well versed with his knowledge about the area , he explained everything thoroughly and with a sense of humor. I found it super interesting learning about the happenings at night and exploring areas with small bars and restaurants. thank you so much for this amazing tour I would recommend to anyone going out at night in Tokyo.

Shinjuku at night. - We did this tour with Nana (a japanese university student). Nana's english was very good. We enjoyed this tour and found it interesting and informative. We learnt a lot about Japanese nightlife and culture from a local's perspective. The tour went for just under 2 hours and there wasn't a lot of walking, so a good tour for everybody (except people with strollers) as we walk down some narrow and busy side 'bar' streets.
