Pub Crawl in Nagoya
"There's nothing to do in Nagoya. It's just a stop-over destination". We know you've heard it before and we're here to show you first-hand that this is absolutely false. Nagoya's nightlife offers one of the highest energy, youthful and fascinating experiences in Japan—you just need to know where to look for it. Our local, long-term resident guides will peel back the layers of the nightlife. They will place you in the locations and situations that made them decide to call this place home. By the end of the night, you will also consider Nagoya to be one of your favorite cities in Japan. At the start of the crawl, you will receive a free beer or highball (your choice!), 4 shots of local sake throughout the night (any additional drinks will be at your own cost), and local residents as your party guides who can speak both Japanese and English. In total we will visit 4 unique locations to enjoy Nagoyan culture and people, with the option to end the night at a club.

Tour of antique shops, cultural stores known only to the locals
Tourist attractions are ok, but this tour has captured the hearts of the guests the most. And above all, the best way to feel the real Japan is to blend in with the locals. I would like to introduce a few of the places where we usually spend extraordinary time. The highlight is an antique shop. It is wonderful rummaging through all the treasures, where you can make many purchases at bargain prices. But I will suggest several spots in that neighborhood, so please feel free to customize your own combination of these places. Depending on specific requests, we will also introduce spots not mentioned here. For example, if you lived in Nagoya's American village with the Occupation Forces after the war, and you would like to feel the atmosphere of those days, I can take you to related places. Please feel free to tell me anything!! E.g. acupuncture to relieve travel fatigue, a barbershop to get a haircut, or anything else. I will accompany you as much as possible.
