Shinjuku Izakaya Tour
Explore three distinct izakaya in Shinjuku, from nostalgic taverns to lively local spots.
Step into Shinjuku after dark and experience how locals really eat and drink. Over the course of the evening, we visit three different izakaya - each with its own style and atmosphere. From a nostalgic wooden tavern that feels frozen in time, to a lively neighborhood spot serving seasonal comfort food, and finally a skewer-focused bar tucked into the narrow alleys of Omoide Yokocho.
Along the way, your guide will walk you through how izakayas work, what people actually order, and the small details that make these places such a big part of everyday life in Tokyo.

Three izakaya visits in Shinjuku

About Shinjuku
Shinjuku is one of Tokyo’s main hubs for food and nightlife, where everything from tiny back-alley izakayas to larger, high-energy spots sits side by side.
It’s an area built for going out - dense, a little chaotic, and full of places you’d never notice unless someone showed you. From the narrow lanes of Omoide Yokocho to tucked-away local favorites, Shinjuku is where a typical night out in Tokyo really comes to life.
