Overview
Welcome to the Shinjuku Free Walking Tour!
Hello travelers! Get ready to explore Shinjuku, the neighborhood where Tokyo never sleeps. More than a stroll through neon lights and skyscrapers, this tour is a window into Japanese society: its discipline, its codes of conduct, and the transformation that occurs after dark.
Meeting point: Departure A2 from Tochōmae station - 18:00
Duration: 2.5 hours
We will discover:
- Kabukichō, Japan's most famous red light district, full of bars, love hotels, and vibrant nightlife.
- Omoide Yokocho & Golden Gai, corners where salarymen and artists take refuge in izakayas and tiny bars.
- Hanazono Shrine, a spiritual oasis in the middle of the urban bustle.
- Tokyo City Hall, with its imposing towers and spectacular light show.
- The lights of Shinjuku, a spectacle reflecting Tokyo's inexhaustible energy.
During the tour, we will understand how the Japanese separate their public and private life, the unwritten rules of coexistence and how the night changes the city.
Let's discover it together!
