A great experience going actual higher end bars that would be impossible to find on your own as a foreigner. Each bar had a large selection of Japanese whisky so of there is something you have been wanting to try you can probably find it. Our guide was fun to talk to and had a good knowledge of the various Japanese whisky brands. We were lucky in that the two of us were the only ones on the tour so we had our guides attention all to ourselves. He even gave us a little present after the tour which was a nice gesture and will go with our collection of treasures from our trip.

This is a great tour if you want to see the authentic nightlife situation in Kabukicho & Golden Gai. We went to a busy izakaya for some yakitori, then we went to a sake bar for a tasting of 8 different sake, and then a very authentic karaoke bar. Together with the walk through the busy streets of the neighborhood we definitely got to see a side of Tokyo nightlife that we would not have seen on our own.
