Highlights
If you’re interested in meeting locals to share a drink when you travel, join our snack bar tour, and an expert guide will introduce you to two carefully selected venues where you can drink. A snack is a small and uniquely Japanese kind of bar where locals go to drink, and enjoy the company of each other. However, most snacks cater mainly to their regular customers, and can be difficult for travelers to find or even gain entrance to if you’re not a fluent local. That’s where this tour comes in! Break down barriers of language and culture, and see a side of the real Japan that most visitors miss. Take a fun quiz to deepen your understanding of Japanese drinking culture. Unlike a typical karaoke, we’ll ply you with drink then get you singing along with the whole bar! As well as visiting two snacks (with 3 drinks at each) we’ll explore the Shimbashi area a little. Stroll and explore a traditional Japanese local landmark to complete your cultural introduction to the world of the snack!

About Tokyo
Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.
Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.
Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
