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.
Very interesting tour - definitely the dark side. Really positively surprised by the storytelling, the historic information and insights about places we would just walk by and know nothing about.
Ryo was amazing - so knowledgeable and also entertaining. Highly recommend this tour! Arigato to Ryo!
Great experience, much better than we expected. We learned so many things about Shinjuku and the Japanese culture. Highly recommended 😊
It was a long tour but we enjoyed every minute of it. Ryo has lots of stories and experiences to share and it really opened up our eyes to the darker side of the Japan!
Ryo gives an incredibly thorough and incredibly honest tour of very interesting districts with so many personal stories. More than I would share about myself with visitors, but grateful for his willingness to make us feel a part of the place. Highly recommend this i very unique tour.
