Overview

Discover Tokyo’s nostalgic side on a walking tour through the charming areas of Yanaka and Ueno!Step into a different side of Tokyo—one that feels like a journey back in time. As you stroll through the quiet streets of Yanaka, you’ll find traditional houses, run shops, and a warm local atmosphere that’s rare in modern Tokyo. Your guide will share stories of how this area survived the Great Kanto Earthquake and World War II.

Visit a historic shrine, enjoy a drink at a retro beer hall, and explore a lively street market filled with local colour.

Take in the beauty of Nezu Shrine, with its red torii gate tunnel and peaceful garden—beloved by locals but often missed by tourists. Then relax at a vintage-style beer hall with a drink and nostalgic ambiance. End the tour at Ameya-Yokocho Market, where food stalls, local vendors, and Tokyo’s everyday energy create a vibrant final stop.

It’s the perfect blend of old-world charm and lively local culture—all experienced on foot.
