So glad we had Kenya to take us to three areas in Shinjuku to show us how to navigate different izakayas and bars. He was super chill and was so knowledgeable about the area. We did this tour the day after we arrived and it gave us the confidence we needed to go back on our own to try other places in the same area. 10 out of 10.
Thank you so much for joining our Shinjuku Bar Hopping Tour and for leaving such a great review. We are very happy to hear that the experience with Kenya helped you feel more comfortable navigating local izakayas and bars on your own. Our team works hard to design tours that not only introduce guests to great spots, but also give practical tips so you can continue exploring confidently after the tour. Knowing that this contributed to the start of your trip means a lot to us. We truly appreciate your warm recommendation, and we hope to welcome you on another experience during your next visit to Japan.
The tour guide was knowledgeable but the tour was not a rainbow tour. He just showed us the gay bars at the end but we didn’t go to any gay bars. We only went to 2 places. Not worth the money.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the tour did not fully meet your expectations. This bar-hopping tour is designed to introduce guests to a variety of local bars and izakayas in Shinjuku but does not include visits to gay bars. We appreciate your comments and will work to improve our tour descriptions to ensure clarity.
The perfect tour to experience this vibrant district! Kuku made it so much fun! We would do one again!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour with Kuku and had fun exploring Shinjuku. We’d love to host you again on another adventure!
