We joined the Midnight Diner Tour with Alejandro this December. We had a great time. Alejandro is clearly loved by local business owners and staff—he showed some great hidden gems.

I've always loved Japan By Food on YouTube, so when I came to Japan I wanted to do a tour with By Food. It did not disappoint. Our tour guide was super friendly and knowledgeable. All the hosts at the bars were super welcoming. And they were even welcoming enough to get my husband to do karaoke which has never happened before. I also loved how personal it was for having a tour that was so nice and small group. 200% recommend!

We didn't have a tour with Anne & Lauren. We had our tour with Hannah from the company "arigato TRAVEL." Fortunately, Hannah was an absolute pleasure. Our tour with her amounted to the highlight of my month long trip to Japan. Initially I was a bit disappointed that byFood subcontracted their tours after hearing so many positive things about the company online. But again, Hannah was superb, delivering a tour of the highest standard. Thank you, Hannah! Thank you arigato TRAVEL!

Alejandro was amazing and this tour was so much fun. My wife and I booked the midnight diners Tokyo tour while on our honeymoon! Alejandro takes you to many spots that you would never find on your own, and he knows all of the bartenders and so many locals that you really feel like an insider. He suggests different drinks that are all tasty, and the food was also delicious. Definitely book this tour for a fun night in Tokyo!

Discover the Joys of Pescetarian Bar Hopping

Immerse yourself in a unique culinary journey with our pescetarian bar hopping experiences. Japan, a country renowned for its vibrant food culture, offers a plethora of options for those embracing a pescetarian lifestyle. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene coastal towns, the bar scene in Japan is an unmissable adventure for food enthusiasts. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or a curious newbie, these experiences promise a delightful exploration of flavors and traditions.

What to Expect on a Pescetarian Bar Hopping Tour

During a bar hopping tour focusing on pescetarian options, you can anticipate a diverse range of dishes featuring fresh seafood. Begin your evening with a taste of the ocean with exquisite sashimi, a highlight of any Japanese seafood experience. Delight in octopus takoyaki or grilled fish freshly caught that morning. These dishes are often paired with sake, Japan’s national drink, which perfectly complements the delicate flavors of seafood.

As you move from one vibrant bar to the next, you'll experience not only the rich diversity of pescetarian dishes but also the lively social atmosphere of Japanese nightlife. Many local bars, known as izakayas, offer a cozy and welcoming environment where locals and travelers alike can unwind. These venues are perfect for both small groups and solo travelers looking to have an authentic cultural experience.

Top Tips for a Memorable Experience

To make the most out of your pescetarian bar hopping adventure, here are a few tips to keep in mind. Firstly, be open to trying new dishes that you might not encounter in your home country. Japan’s culinary offerings are vast and often unexpected, with regional specialties that are both surprising and delicious.

Secondly, learn a few basic Japanese phrases. While many Japanese people are gracious about language barriers, a simple "arigatou" (thank you) or "sumimasen" (excuse me) can go a long way in making your experience smoother and more enjoyable.

Finally, remember that the best experiences often come from being spontaneous. While it’s a good idea to have a list of must-visit bars, don’t shy away from exploring the less-traveled paths. Some of the most memorable dining experiences occur in hidden gems tucked away in narrow alleyways.

Overall, pescetarian bar hopping in Japan is not just about the food; it's a cultural immersion, a sensory delight, and an opportunity to engage with local customs. Whether you are enjoying a plate of freshly prepared sushi or clinking glasses with newfound friends, this experience is sure to be a highlight of your journey.
