What to expect
MagicalTrip pioneered bar-hopping tours in Japan back in 2018 — before it was a thing. Winner of a Top Japan Experience Award, every stop is handpicked by local izakaya-hoppers who actually drink here. The person next to you won’t be a tourist — it’ll be a salaryman unwinding after work, or a student fresh out of exams. That’s the Shibuya we want you to experience.
What to Expect
Stop 1 — Oku-Shibuya Far from the tourist trail. A beloved local izakaya, a carefully selected course. Stop 2 — Center-gai Shibuya’s most iconic street, buzzing and alive. A lively izakaya — let the night take over. Stop 3 — Hidden Specialty Sake Bar Right behind the Scramble, known only to locals. End with the perfect pour.












Reviews
This tour was a great introduction to Shibuya's isakayas which gave us the confidence to explore on our own for the rest of our trip. We booked a group tour, but as it was mid week it was just us and the guide along with 2 camera crew (prearranged). The food and drinks were plentiful and delicious. We loved the 2nd restaurant so much we went back again later in our trip.
So much fun, food and drinks a plenty. Lam was a fantastic guide and we met a great bunch of people from all over the world. I would recommend this tour we had a blast.
I had a good experience knowing more about Shibuya and the best places around the area. NAO is a very good tour guide! Nao personalised the tour and made it super worth it!
The tour guide is very professional. The Japanese speak English fluently and can chat. I experienced the atmosphere and dishes of an authentic Japanese izakaya. I am very satisfied👍
Yuki is an amazing guide! We decided to book this tour last minute and we do not regret it at all. It was just us 2 but we still had such a fun time with Yuki and learning about the area. All the food we had was delicious and more than enough (so come hungry!). Alcohol provided was also all really good. I definitely think the price you pay is worth it. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to book another tour with Yuki the next day for Shinkinju!
I loved this experience SO is the man well educated and speaks amazing English, fully recommend this experience with SO glad I did this and will never forget it.....
the overall experience was great and through time was even better. Lisa-san did an amazing job explaining everything, the places were the ones that the locals go to and the food and drinks were amazing. I enjoy it very much, also knew an amazing people on the tour. Yoko-san did an amazing job trying to accommodate me on the best tour possible. 5☆
An amazing experience, I’ll guide Naoki was a lot of fun and taught us a lot about Shibuya and Shinjuku.
Possibly one of the best food tours I've ever been on. Friendly guide, interesting people you get to know along the way. The food was totally authentic, well chosen restaurants, and alcohol flows as much as you can handle.
Chiaki's (千晶) led izakaya tour was really professional. She gives her all in trying to make her clients as comfortable as possible. She is also knowledgeable and accommodative. You will bound to know a lot more about Izakaya, Shibuya and Japan after the trip. Have fun joining!
