A must-see icon just outside Shinjuku Station's West Exit: a maze of lantern-lit alleys that grew out of a black market right after the war. We skip the shops here and save your time (and appetite) for the places locals really go, but we do stop... 2. **Kabukicho** (10m) - Step under the glowing red neon gate into Japan's best-known entertainment district, a dazzling maze of neon signs, izakaya, karaoke bars and late-night restaurants that never seems to sleep. It's also Tokyo's famous red-light district, with adult entertainment venues mixed... 3. **Kabukicho District** (1h; admission included) - 1st hidden Izakaya that even Japanese people don't know! (Visiting 1st tavern) Completely-locals-only izakaya foreigners rarely get into, and we have exclusive access! This is a deep, hole-in-the-wall neighborhood spot with zero tourist vibes, and it normally doesn't welcome... 4. **Godzilla Road & Head** (10m) - Godzilla Head! A 12-meter-tall Godzilla peers down over Kabukicho from the 8th-floor terrace of the Shinjuku Toho Building, built in 2015 to celebrate the monster's 60th anniversary. He's so loved here that he's an official Shinjuku Tourism Ambassador and even holds a ward... 5. **Hanazono Shrine Festival** (10m) - Hanazono Shrine! A calm vermilion oasis right next to Golden Gai and a short walk from Kabukicho's neon, it has watched over Shinjuku for over 400 years as the area's guardian shrine. Locals and entertainers have long come here to pray for success. The shrine's link to... 6. **Shinjuku** (1h) - 2nd hidden Izakaya that cheerful owner and welcoming local customers! (Visiting 2nd tavern) 7. **Shinjuku Golden Gai** (10m) - Golden Gai! Six narrow alleys, over 200 tiny bars, some with only a handful of seats, squeezed into one corner of Shinjuku. It grew out of the postwar black market, then became the late-night hangout of writers, filmmakers, musicians and artists, and it still feels like old... 8. **Giant 3d Cat Display Billboard** (10m) - Shinjuku's giant 3D cat, the final stop of our night! Anyone can find this cat on a map, but its "naked-eye 3D" illusion only works from the right angle, and only a local friend knows exactly where to stand. We'll take you to the one spot where the huge calico cat really... ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Departures: 19:15 - Schedule last checked: 2026-11-07 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point Address：3-37-2 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku There’s many tourist information center in Shinjuku so please copy this address and add to google maps.

If you dislike that, we do not recommend you to participate. - *We can drink alcohol from 20 years by the law in Japan, so minors are not allowed to participate in the tour unfortunately. - *Please only understand our problems for the future schedules → Our places(taverns) we visit are really popular even only for locals everyday so it’s hard to get available seats in usual. Therefore we have to close the tour immediately when the restaurant became fully booked even regardless of the availability of the calendar on the site. (Also many of the tour participants prefer to book just before the event, so as the tour approaches, we are very likely to sell out) So we recommend every guests to book early if it’s possible. - Please message us before booking if you can’t eat something.
