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.
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.
Very cool way to discover the area, learn its secrets, and hear about first hand experience of the district. Not for shy people though! Come open minded and ready to have fun
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.
