Konnichiwa! Sono Ryo, la vostra guida locale. Sono nato e cresciuto a Tokyo. Mi sono diplomato alla Shinjuku Public High School, a 5 minuti a piedi dalla stazione di Shinjuku, e poi ho frequentato l'Università Waseda, a circa 30 minuti a piedi dalla stessa stazione. Vivevo nel quartiere di Kabukicho e lavoravo per una casa di produzione cinematografica nel quartiere gay di Shinjuku Nichome. Ho esperienza diretta di frequentazione di molti degli istituti di cui parleremo durante il tour. Attualmente, lavoro come insegnante di inglese in una scuola di preparazione intensiva durante il giorno, insegnando sia a studenti delle scuole superiori che a neolaureati.
I attened this tour on Sunday. I had an amazing exerience with Ryo! he was so passionate about the explanation of history and culture in Shinjuku. It was raining when we started the tour so luckly I was the only one who was in the tour! I felt like it was a private tour. Even though the weather wasn’t perfect thanks to Ryo the tour went great! he showed me around the area and explained about the history from the past! The story of night life in Japan was fascinating. How the sex life is in Japan or Something that you can only see here. I could learn and see many things and asked what I was curious about. Because Ryo is a local who was born and raised in Tokyo he could explain the reality. Since shinjuku is very big to explore it was nice to have a local guide. I highly recommend this tour with Ryo! I have a great time with him and learnt the story in Shinjuku. 안녕하세요! 저는 이 투어를 일요일 밤에 진행했습니다! 비가 오고 바람이 많이 불어 걱정했지만 료가 투어를 잘 이끌어 준 덕분에 재밌게 투어를 마칠 수 있었습니다. 신주쿠가 크기에 로컬가이드가 있으면 도움이 될 것 입니다. 또한 일본의 밤 라이프 스타일을 경험하고 배우고 싶다면 이 투어를 꼭 추천합니다. 료는 아주 재밌는 사람입니다. 영어로 진행되기에 어느정도의 영어수준은 필요하지만 로컬가이드로부터 듣는 설명이니 더욱 흥미로울 것 이라고 생각합니다! 기회가 되면 꼭 투어 참여해보세요. 감사합니다 료!
Thanks for the tour. Interesting insights in the world of "Japanese love". Good to mention, target group of the tour is adult men, not recommended under 18yo.
Excellent tour. Ryo was frank and honest so we learned a lot, no glossing over the strict facts with niceties. Went home to immerse myself in the TV series Tokyo Vice once we learned/understood the nuances. Excellent introduction.
Ryo was very professional, informative, entertaining and patient. We got to see a side of Tokyo that we would have never known about or seen without him.
It was very interesting to learn about the other side of Tokyo life. The tour was great, and our guide Ryo knows and most importantly loves his job. Thank you for an interesting evening!
