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!

So much fun!!! We had heard of the back alley izakayas and bars in Omoide Yokocho and Golden Gai but they are a bit intimidating since we don’t speak Japanese. Yoshi introduced us to new delicious foods (ex: tsukune, the chicken meatballs), cocktails (ex: JJ, oolong tea cocktail), and a hidden gem of an anime karaoke bar we would have never found on our own. We have already been using his etiquette tips and Japanese phrases. Thanks for a great adventure!
