Excellent inside look at Shinjuku - Irene is a terrific guide who led us through a number of unique sites in Shinjuku that I wouldn't normally have found on my own. She's very informative with a lovely personality. I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in Tokyo (whether you've visited before or if it's your first time).

helpful guide - Did this tour with Miyuki about a week ago. She was very friendly and helpful. I wanted to share Karaoke with local people which is difficult to find - most people now hire private rooms with their friends but Miyuki rang around until she found a tiny bar to go to. After the tour had finished, she took me there. Ask her to do "Amazing Grace" - it's her favourite. A bucket list item for me - thank you Miyuki.

I highly recommend this tour as he pointed out things we walked past for days and missed. A great way to spend an evening in Shinjuku.</p>

Fantastic Way to Explore Shinjuku - The Nocturnal Walking Tour of Shinjuku was a fun and informative night tour. Our guide Artiom had excellent knowledge of the area and pointed out things we would not have found on our own. I would highly recommend this walking tour for anyone visiting Shinjuku for the first time. I also suggest taking the tour the first day in town if possible. We took the tour on our third night and I was completely fascinated with the information Artiom provided as we spend three days wondering around the area and the story to finally come together during this tour. We loved visiting Omoide-Yokocho where I had my first taste of Sake (sweet wine) we also had an amazing experience at the Hanazono Shrine where I pull a great fortune from the box, made my wishes and said a quick prayer. Golden Gai and Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building were great stops on this tour as well.
