Fun tour and super fun karaoke! Clarke was a great tour guide!
Best host possible, very attentive to the guests and very easy to talk to, would recommend to all visiting shinjuku
Kento was an amazing tour guide! He explained many dishes to us, gave us his honest recommendations, and kept a very lively and inviting atmosphere! Me and my friend had a wonderful time, and would love to go again next time we are in Japan!
Taichi took me on a very dynamic tour of both Shibuya and some of the bohemian districts in central Tokyo most visitors miss. He also took the time to teach me about some compelling historical elements of the area and Japanese traditions at a local shrine. I highly recommend booking with Taichi as he can adapt the tour to your unique interests and travel preferences. We also got a great workout. 10/10 would book again!! Thx again Taichi!
Amazing guide, highly knowledgeable, an authentic Japanese experience, highly recommend to first timers in Shinjuku.
