5.00Our guide, Huy, was excellent. Really well organised. Explained all the information on the tour well. The tour took a reasonable amount of time and didn’t feel rushed. Huy added a lot of humour and covered sensitive points without offending. Great tour.
Not the typical tour

4.00With this walk through the red light districts we learned how the underworld circumvents the laws, what animates boys and girls to play "psychologist" and how prostitution works. Also the explanation about the love hotels was nice to hear. Highly recommended for those who want to know more than temples and shrines.
Excellent tour, worth it

5.00Excellent tour. Danny was very patient in explaining the various areas. I would have liked for the tour to end at the starting point.
A great experience.

5.00I had to get help from a local to find the meeting point outside the Shinjuku station but it was worth it. Great tour, very informative and entertaining. Nikki, the guide was so enthusiastic, it was infectious! She obviously loves what she does! Glynn March 2026
