Tour description

Venture through neon lights and experience the local street food, where you will set foot inside an entertainment district.
Savor the essentials at a stall like Takoyaki octopus dumplings and discover the chef's secret sauce. Must try local favorites like Kushikatsu deep-fried skewers, breaded meats and veggies to a golden crisp.
Indulge in the spicy, sweet chili shrimp and give way to the King's Gyoza pork dumplings. Visit a traditional stand-up style Tempura Udon noodle vendor, accompanied by a subtle fish broth.
Bump shoulders with local salary workers and admire the culture from the Land of the Rising Sun. It's a great time to sip on your choice of different Japanese Sake. For example, rice, wheat, potato, or plum.

All while you learn about the surrounding historical and iconic sites. Hablo Español.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • The cost of the dishes is not included on the tour.
