Konnichiwa ! I'm Ryo, your local guide. I was born and raised in Tokyo. I graduated from Shinjuku Public High School, a 5-minute walk from Shinjuku Station and then went to Waseda University, which is about a 30-minute walk from the same station. I used to live in Kabukicho town and worked for a movie production company located in the Shinjuku Nichome gay town. I have first-hand experience going to many of the establishments which we will discuss during the tour.
Currently, I work as a cram school English teacher during the day, teaching both high school students and recent graduates.
We had the best time with Ryo in Shinjuku
Most enjoyable walking tour we’ve had in years!! Ryo is entertaining, honest and à fast walker!! We saw sides of Tokyo we didn’t know existed and learnt a huge amount about the Japanese culture. This tour can be a bit explicit, but Ryo is charming and polite and respectful the whole way. Just be ready to be surprised by how honest his stories are. But we loved it. Thank you Ryo.
Wir hatten heute eine wirklich tolle Rotlicht-Milieutour mit Ryo. Die Tour war super interessant und sehr kurzweilig. Ryo hat uns nicht nur die bekannten Orte gezeigt, sondern auch viele spannende geschichtliche Hintergründe erklärt. Man merkt, dass er sich bestens auskennt. Wir hatten eine richtig gute Zeit mit ihm und können diese Tour absolut weiterempfehlen! 👍👍👍
If you want to be shocked (for good) about how creative Japanese could be, join the tour. I enjoyed it very much.
