Experience Details

Nightlife has always been one of those things that one must experience once when visiting Tokyo. In this Tokyo Bar and Mixology tour, ready yourselves as you embark on an adventure to some of the best hole-in-the-wall food and drink places in Tokyo. The tour starts with exploring the streets of Shinbashi and Ginza where one can find some of the most interesting spots for eating and drinking. Known as the salarymen capital of Tokyo, Shinbashi evokes two things – streets congested with people (especially during rush hours), and the buzz of pubs and izakayas all across the city. It’s the favorite hangout spot of working-class people who just clocked out and want a relaxing time sharing stories and conversations over beers and grilled skewers.


At a luxurious Tokyo bar in Ginza, you’ll have a taste of Japanese sake (rice wine), cocktails, and Japanese whisky made special by bartenders who incorporate traditional Japanese ingredients and give it their own twist. Belly up as you get to pair these drinks with mouth-watering local dishes and bar snacks, and discover different beers made at micro-breweries across Japan. Not only do you get to relax and be at ease with fellow tourists, but you'll also see Tokyo in a different light as you swap stories and tales with local people at a number of Tokyo bars. This Tokyo mixology tour is all about having fun, creating new friendships, and enjoying one of the best nights of your life.
