Overview
  • A Private Walking Tour with Omoide Yokocho, Pachinko, and Kabukicho Secrets
  • Our adventure begins in Omoide Yokocho, a labyrinthine alleyway affectionately nicknamed "Memory Lane." This narrow passage transports us back in time, lined with tiny, vibrant izakaya (Japanese pubs) boasting red lanterns and overflowing with energy.
  • After the alley adventure, we'll venture into the world of pachinko. Pachinko parlors are brightly lit havens filled with rows of pachinko machines – a mix of pinball and slot machine.
  • We will explain the intricacies of the game: how to buy pachinko balls, operate the machine, and aim for the jackpot. We can help you navigate the process and exchange your winnings for prizes or tokens.
  • Now, we delve into the infamous Kabukicho, Tokyo's neon-drenched entertainment district. Kabukicho is known for its dazzling nightlife, but we'll be venturing beyond the flashy exterior to explore its hidden alleys and lesser-known corners.
What to expect

Calling all adventurous foodies! In the heart of bustling Shinjuku lies Omoide Yokocho, a hidden alleyway nicknamed "Memory Lane." This labyrinthine maze of narrow streets transports you back to post-war Japan, packed with tiny izakaya pubs and yakitori stands. Grab a seat at a counter and savor the smoky aroma of grilled meats and clinking glasses. Omoide Yokocho is a must-visit for an authentic, shoulder-to-shoulder Tokyo experience, perfect for trying local favorites like yakitori skewers and washing them down with a cold beer. Be prepared for a lively atmosphere and don't be afraid to step outside your comfort zone – you might just make some unforgettable memories along the way!
