What to expect

Shinjuku
10m

Your night begins at Shinjuku's East Exit, where you'll meet your friendly French-speaking local guide and head straight into Kabukicho—Tokyo's most legendary entertainment district. As you stroll the dazzling neon-lit streets, your guide explains in French exactly what makes this neighborhood so fascinating: the different types of izakayas, bars, restaurants, and venues packed into every block, and what hides behind those glowing signs.

You'll learn the local etiquette, the important dos and don'ts, and which spots to approach with caution—all clearly explained in your own language. More than a walk, this is an honest, insider introduction to Kabukicho's culture and history. By the end, you'll see this electric district through local eyes, perfectly primed for the unforgettable evening ahead.

Next, you'll settle into a local izakaya—a uniquely Japanese style of pub where great drinks and delicious small plates come together in a warm, lively atmosphere. Start with a toast over your choice of Japanese beer, smooth whisky, or sake, paired with sizzling yakitori, fluffy dashimaki tamago, and other authentic small dishes. As you relax and break the ice, your French-speaking guide shares the real secrets of enjoying Tokyo nightlife on any budget—comfortably, in French—so nothing gets lost in translation. Together, you'll map out the rest of your night. Fancy another izakaya? Real, melt-in-your-mouth sushi? A tiny bar in Golden Gai? Or something playful like a quirky magic bar? This is your chance to be completely open about what you want—because from here, the entire evening is tailored around you.

With your next destination chosen, it's off to spot number two. Still hungry? Your French-speaking guide leads you to the Japanese restaurants you simply have to try—fresh sushi, sizzling yakiniku, crispy tempura, and more—all matched to your taste and budget. You order directly from the menu, so everything stays clear and transparent, with absolutely no hidden charges or surprise fees. In the mood for a drink instead? We highly recommend Golden Gai, a maze of narrow back alleys where more than 200 tiny, atmospheric bars stand shoulder to shoulder.
Each has its own personality, and your guide—translating and explaining everything in French—takes you to a one-of-a-kind hidden gem you'd never find alone. It's an authentic taste of old-school Tokyo nightlife few visitors ever see.
Shibuya
40m

From here, the night is entirely yours to shape. Slip into an intimate music bar in Shinjuku Sanchome, feel the energy of a nightclub in Shibuya or Kabukicho, or take in a truly one-of-a-kind entertainment show. Your French-speaking guide reads both the mood and your budget to suggest the perfect next move, explaining your options in French so every choice feels easy and clear. Craving one last bite? Cap off the evening the way locals do—with a steaming bowl of ramen that hits the spot. There's no fixed itinerary and no rushing here; the whole experience bends to what you want. With a guide who speaks your language by your side all night, you'll dive headfirst into your very own ultimate Tokyo night out—an adventure you'll be talking about long after you're home.
