Overview

Discover Tokyo’s nightlife in one of its trendiest districts on this guided pub crawl through Shimokitazawa—a neighborhood famous for its vintage shops, live music bars, and bohemian atmosphere. This is not your typical tourist night out—you’ll explore hidden local bars and izakaya that most visitors never find.

At each stop, enjoy a different Japanese drink specialty—from crisp sake and smooth shochu to inventive craft cocktails and local beers—paired with light bites. Your guide will share tips on Japanese drinking etiquette, fun cultural stories, and insider knowledge of the area, making every stop both tasty and memorable.

With a small group of fellow travelers, you’ll make new friends while hopping between three unique venues—each with its own charm and flavor. By the end of the night, you’ll not only be happily buzzed but also leave with a deeper understanding of Japan’s drinking culture and the vibrant nightlife of Shimokitazawa.
