What Our Participants Say
Having three different locations, all with a totally different vibe was really nice. I haven't been to many snacks in Japan before and it was a fun experience I think is unique to Japan. Having self-serve all-you-can drink at the first location was really nice for getting started. I think the second snack we went to especially had a really fun concept and is a great way to make friends with locals, which is hard to do anywhere else as a traveler. The owners of the third snack were so kind and it was nice for winding down the evening.
The experience is amazing, I was able to know the famous "izakaya". The food and drinks are incomparable. Hayate is such a great guide who explained everything about Japanese culture and always answered my questions. The waiters were so kind and always attentive at our petitions.
I recommend this tour widely, I had a lot of fun!
