Old-School Yokohama: Noge Walking Tour with Food and Drinks

Known for its port views and distinct scenery, Yokohama makes a great day trip from Tokyo, but there’s more to the city than first meets the eye. This walking tour takes you beyond the glittering Minato Mirai waterfront, Chinatown and other famous attractions to the local nightlife district of Noge, which shows a completely different side of the city. Guided by a host who has called Yokohama home for the last 20 years, you’ll explore this unruly and refreshingly down-to-earth district dotted with hole-in-the-wall bars and lively izakaya bars. You’ll start your exploration at a unique spot with picturesque views of the city skyline and the Minato Mirai waterfront as it lights up at dusk. You’ll then head to a popular izakaya that encapsulates the energy and atmosphere of Noge, where you’ll taste a selection of sake from across Japan and sample local foods. You can opt for juicy chicken skewers (yakitori), an izakaya staple office workers love, or other delicious izakaya foods. Learn more about the food culture and the unique character of Noge from your lively host as you brush shoulders with locals. No night out in Noge (or Yokohama in general) is complete without slurping on a decadent bowl of ramen before heading home. Your host will take you to a renowned local ramen shop where you can indulge in a steamy and comforting meal to end the night on a high note.
