Had a fun tour with Naoko! The weather didn't quite cooperate--it rained fairly hard the entire night, but she made the most of itand tried to get us from place to place quickly. It wasn't super clear in the description for me, but bring cash to pay for drinks at each location. We had a nice group, and the alcohol got us grooving enough that most of us ended up at a karaoke bar after!

An exceptional tour. Really the highlight of our Japan trip. I strongly recommend this tour. Our guide Danik was friendly knowledgeable and funny. I wrote two haikus about it. Enjoy with sake. Osaka's lights gleam bright, Danik guides through savory night, Taste buds in delight. Street food warms the soul, Under neon skies we stroll, Danik makes us whole.

We went out with Denick on a semi private nightlife tour of Osaka. We had so much fun and would recommend him totally! Our last stop at ZZ bar was the highlight. Great bar!! Would recommend this tour with him.

The Ultimate Osaka Night Tour
Food Tours
We were a group of 12 people which felt too many for one young guide to be able to give his full attention. The guide was a student in his early 20s. He took us to 3 places, 1st for food where we sat on the floor (traditional) then 2 bars close to each other for sake tasting then a karaoke bar. Be careful food and drinks not included in this tour so I would recommend you discuss how you want to split the bill at the beginning. Some participants may drink more than others and wouldn’t be fair to divide the bill equally. If you can afford it, choose a private tour so everything can be tailored to your liking.

My husband and I spent an unforgettable night going to bar hopping with Takeshi in Kyoto, one of the highlights of our trip! Not only was he fun and cool to hang out with, he gave us access to places only a local could. This is a no brainer for an authentic night out.

Kyoto Izakaya Hopping: Food, Drinks, & Ramen
Food Tours

Japan is a drinker’s paradise. Between gulping down glasses of some of the best beer, sake and whisky in the world, and discovering strange new drinks you’d never even heard of before, there’s something to suit every kind of drinker out there. Bar hopping in Japan is a real boozy voyage of discovery.

The variety in alcohol is matched by the insane range of bars. In every major Japanese city you’ll find small retro standing bars from the 60s where salarymen gather for their post-shift pints, awesome craft beer bars which showcase the best of the contemporary Japanese beer scene, and refined watering holes where you can sample glass after glass of premium nihonshu delights.

You could spend a whole year hopping between all of the bars in Tokyo alone, and never go to the same place twice! If you don’t quite have that much time to spare, why not hop on a bar hopping tour in Japan to unlock the best hidden secrets these city streets have to offer?

Whether you’re looking for a chill evening soaking up the culture, or a wild night out to remember, the nightlife in Japan offers plenty to fit the bill.
