LET'S GET OUT OF THE TOURIST AREA where it's overpriced and crowded with tourists!
I’ll discuss not only Japanese food and drinks but also culture, traditions and history, which will be beneficial for the rest of your stay in Japan for sure!
This tour focuses on Ueno, which is not as crowded as Shibuya, Shinjuku and is less touristy. I'm going to take you to popular taverns and restaurants for ONLY LOCALS (NO TOURISTS!!) where the staff speaks NO ENGLISH.
We will visit several taverns where you will have sashimi, grilled fish and ramen, etc. You will also have the opportunity to try UNIQUE Japanese alcoholic drinks, so you'll be able to experience what Japanese taverns are like. I'll order signature dishes and feel free to ask me any questions.
At the end of tour, I will explain which train station you need to go to, depending on your destination.

Aki was great! My daughter turned 21 and a trip to Japan was her gift. This experience was great for our last night. Be prepared to really step outside of your comfort zone!!!

Aki was a very friendly and outgoing guide who gave us a good mixture of local Japanese food and drink knowledge/tastings as well as let us all be ourselves and mix with some locals in one of the stops without putting any time restraints/pressure to move on until we were ready. He was also very helpful and found a cab for me to get into once the tour was complete! All around a lovely experience that I would recommend!
