What can I say we had an amazing time with Hideaki and Yuki (his lovely partner). We had a lovely insight to Golden Gai/Omoide Yokocho and found outselves going to little alleys which we would have never found. Great company and laughs, I would definitely recommend this to anyone who visit Tokyo! You will have a amazing time with Hideaki :)

This is my second time to book a tour with Hideaki. The first time was the Shinjuku & Kabukicho Tour which I also highly recommend. This tour was a new amazing experience for me. First Hideaki and his wife took me to a sakebar where I could taste one of the best sake in my life. You will be amazed how good sake can taste. We also ate some delicous food there. But the best part of a tour with Hideaki is the conversation with him and his wife. They are really smart people who can tell you a lot about Japan and can give you great recommendations for places to go. Its a lot of fun to hang out with them, we laughed a lot. After the sakebar we went to a very authentic japanese standingbar. It was such a great experience for me. I could really feel the true japanese lifestyle. Many businessmen come here after work. We drank some special japanese beverage called Hoppy, which was amazing and ate some delicous food and snacks. After that they took me back to the station and made sure I got to the right train. I now have 2 great japanese friend. So I highly recommend this tour or any other tour with Hideaki. You can really experience true Japan and not just the touriststuff. When I come to Japan again I will try to meet then again for sure.

Hideaki and his partner Yuki created an unforgettable uiniqur experience for our party of four. We had a great evening of conversation and way too much to drink and eat. Upon my request he took is to some very unique B gourmet restaurants and a tiny punk rock bar in Golden Gai, whixh turned out to be the highlight of the evening. I can highly recommend booking Hideaki !!!!!

My wife and I had an amazing night exploring Golden Gai/Omoide Yokocho with Hideaki! He took us to some great small spots we wouldn't have found otherwise and provided all sorts of cool facts about the area. Hideaki has an awesome sense of humor, by the end of the night it was like hanging out with an old friend. He was also nice enough to send us a whole bunch of recommendations for the rest of the trip. If you are thinking about a tour, go for it and book with Hideaki, you'll have a wonderful time!

Hideaki did an amazing job and was very professional! We had a great time hanging out and his English was very good. He taught me a lot about Japanese culture and answered any questions I had. Even a few days after the event he still answered some more questions I had! This made my experience in Japan a lot better. A+ Would highly recommend!

Hideaki is an amazing guide with perfect english. He took use around Kabukicho and explained the various "shops" and "services" offered by the red light district. We then ended the tour with a yakitori pub (and kudos to him on finding the restaurant with seats - it wasn't easy!). An amazing night with an amazing guide - would recommend him to everyone.

I was excited to meet a local person to show me around and very relieved too because I wouldn't know how to order in a Japanese restaurant. I would be so lost! Hideaki san was friendly and spoke english well. He brought me to a quaint ramen place where we had to place our order using a vending machine like system. It was definitely my first time ordering a meal in this fashion. The ramen shop seats about a dozen people in a bar like style. It was so good! I would have never found the place it by myself! Much less order from it. Hideaki san even took me to try out sake and we talked about the rich historical culture of Japan such as Ukioye. He ended bringing me to a historical bridge that was the main entrance to Tokyo going way back to the Edo period. It was a good evening and I'm glad to have met a friend like Hideaki san. Will definitely recommend him to anyone going to Tokyo and looking for a relaxing evening with good company.

Thank you for great everning, was very nice to met with you! Hightly reccomend Hideaki: smart, intelegent, funny and polite person, good for any sorts of programm in Tokyo

Hideaki and his girlfriend took me and my BF out for Ramen in Shinjuku. The BF loves anything containing noodles so ramen was a '"must on our to do list. I am pescetarian and therefore finding ramen is difficult, since most places serve theirs with meat or a meat based broth. Hideaki did some research and found a place close to our hotel serving seafood only ramen I was able to eat. The restaurant was exactly what we were looking for, a hole in the wall filled with locals and not tourists. We enjoyed drinks and slurped ramen over talks of baseball. My best dining experiences while in Japan were hands down the ones with Meetrip guides. It is easy ending up in mediocre restaurants or ordering the wrong things from Japanese only menus without a local guide. I highly recommend Hideaki, he is professional, reliable and speaks excellent English.

I really enjoyed the Kabukicho-Tour with Hideaki, he is very nice and has a lot of interesting things to tell you about places in kabukicho and other surrounding places. We also went to The Golden Gai and to a bar in Omoide Yokocho. It was like hanging out with a friend and i can really recommend tours with Hideaki, it will be a special experience of your trip in tokyo. If i come to tokyo again i will book another tour with him for sure.

Hideaki totally deserves the most reviews in Meetrip. He is not just fun and gentle but also don't mind sharing with you many of his nightlife experience. We had a short dinner, then he toured me around Kabukicho area and we ended up at Golden Gai. It is definitely a hidden gem! There are more than hundred of mini bars with unique design. He had a very nice chat and if you want to meet someone represent Tokyo in 3 hours, please go for Hideaki!

Open-uri20141104-2179-1o0kujt?1415097035

thanks a lot for tonight, I discovered a very interesting places that I would have never by myself

Thank you, Hideaki! We had a brilliant time. Hideaki was friendly, accommodating and easy to get along with. He toured four of us through Kabuchiko and then showed us around Golden Gai - where we had some crazy and hilarious experiences. Hideaki is an excellent guide and we would highly recommend you book him both for his great local knowledge and his friendly approach.Thanks again, Hideaki!

Going to Omoide Yokocho was a last-minute decision on my part. Really quite lucky that Hideaki was available for this activity! We had a barrel of laughs over BBQ and he even offered to tour me around Kabukicho! I really can't find enough words to say thank you! :D I will definitely look you up when I come back to Tokyo!

My wife and I had a very funny tour with Hideaki in Kabukicho. After a tempura dinner, he guided us through this amazing area and explained us the different types of shops and services that you can find there. We could also discuss with him various topics, including tourists spots in Europe and even business. At the end, he took us to a small bar in the Golden Gai area because I wanted to taste some genuine Nihon shu : it was a very pleasant experience. In conclusion : don't hesitate to contact Hideaki ! Jean-Christophe August 3rd, 2014.

Hideaki was very friendly and showed us around to all of the different places around Shinjuku and was very patient with our questions. It was great to meet a local and get his perspective on Japan and life.

Had a good time meeting up with Hideaki and getting the insider knowledge on Shinjuku and Kabukicho areas of Tokyo. We had some great Ramen, then walked around before hitting a few bars. Nice guy, and really fun to be around. Thanks!

My tour of Kabukicho with Hideaki was simply awesome. At first, I was lost and wasn't sure what I'll be doing. The service I was able find on meetrip.to and with Hideaki, however; really made my first time stay in Japan a memorable one. Hideaki is very responsive answering all the questions and requests I asked him from beginning to the end. And, he's just easy and kind guide to talk to about pretty much anything. He even went out of his way to make sure that I'd find a decent lodging service after agreed time of guiding service was over. Thanks a lot. More than just a paid tour service, I, now, have a friend in Japan.

I had a lot of fun with Hideaki. Hideaki is great to hang around with. He had great knowledge of Kabukicho. He also can speak very good in english. For a person who learn english by himself, to me, he is unbelievable. He will have no problem to communicate with visitor(s) from out side of Japan. I'm from Canada and I can fully understand what he is telling me. Hideaki, next time I am in Tokyo, I will call you again for sure and I am highly recommended Hideaki to others who has time to visit Kabukicho. See you next time my friend. Richard.

This was my first time touring with meetrip and Hideaki in particular, and he was just perfect. His English is better than most professional tour guides in Tokyo and he was more than willing to accommodate all my requests. Awesome night, thank you Hideaki!

Hideaki was an excellent host. He is a great communicator, I really enjoy meeting people and Hideaki felt like an old friend. I learned a lot about Japanese culture. He also honored my special request to see a particular bar in Golden Gai that featured cats and took me to Pussy Foot - it was a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing him again next time I visit.

I had a great time with Hideaki. He was punctual and easy to talk to. Kabukicho is different from what I imagine and having Hideaki explain helps. In addition to Kabukicho, we walk around Isetan food department and he highlighted some of the delicacies that are worth getting. We ended the trip with some yakitori at Omoide Yokocho, which to me is saving the best for last. The food and the atmosphere there is great. All in all it was a great night out with a cool guy. I highly recommend it.

I had a very pleasent evening with Hideaki taking a tour of Kabukicho and finishing the evening with dinner at one of the small joints at Omoide Yokocho. We connected immediately and found a lot of commen interests. His English is very good and he is very easy to talk to. I strongly recommend meeting up with Hideaki if you are in Tokyo.

We had a great time. Hideaki was punctual and spoke English very well. It was easy to converse with him, we enjoyed sharing stories and getting to know each other. We got to see some places we otherwise wouldn't have known about. Hideaki was quite knowledgeable and we enjoyed his company. The little restaurant he found for us in the Golden Gai gave us an authentic Japanese dining experience.

I had fun with Hideaki. He was very nice, patient, fluent-english and really represent Japanese hospitality. I was late and lost and unable to find him at the appointed meeting place, then he instructed me to stop at a spot and he came to me. Together we went to Omoide Yokocho, a narrow alley filled with tiny restaurant that can only host 5-6 guest at a time. We ate at one of the store selling Yakitori (a japanese skewer usually consist of chicken's liver, heart, skin and etc). The yakitori was very tasty, although i don't drink beer, i'm sure that yakitori make perfect companion for beer :). Hideaki told me some interesting stories he had experienced and the night went quite fast! the Yakitori wasn't as cheap as i thought (maybe because we ordered too much), but Hideaki insisted to split the bill. After eating, Hideaki gave me quick tour of Kabukicho (Red light district) and also explained what each establishment does. very interesting! if you have a free night, don't hesitate to contact Hideaki and i'm sure he'll be a good and friendly companion :)

Visiting Kabukicho with Hideaki was really amazing. The night did not start ideally since I got lost at Shinjuku station and did not find our meeting point. Hideaki was really great: he stayed, looked for me everywhere and found me luckily as I was almost sure the meeting was done :) Well the contact with Hideaki was really easy and smooth since he is really open minded and friendly. We had good chatting, as he showed me Kabukicho and its main spots (sexy bars, massage places, ramen restaurants...). We finally had yakitoris and beer in a small japanese bar. Thanks Hideaki. Keep in touch.

Hideaki managed to find time from his schedule for a tour of Omoide Yokocho and Kabukicho with me. He was really patient as I went to the wrong meeting location and had to hurry over to the other end of Shinjuku station. The tour started with a short walk to Omoide Yokocho. A quaint little street with lots of Yakitori and Ramen shops. We managed to find one of his regular shops and had a fantastic dinner! It was followed by a tour at Kabukicho. Towards the end of the tour he was also nice enough to point out a restaurant serving Okinawan cuisine that I could try. Overall he was really knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic during the tour. I would recommend any one wanting to know Shinjuku in greater detail to him.

I had a great time with Hideaki. He took me to a fantastic Ramen restaurant that I really enjoyed and he told me lots of things I didn't know about Japan and Japanese culture. After Ramen he also gave me a quick tour of the Kabukicho and some other Shinjuku areas. I highly recommend Hideaki for a revealing and interesting tour!

We had a lot of fun with Hideaki. He's a nice guy who is so easy to talk to ;) He knows good restaurant that you probably won't try if you're alone and the ramen he recommended was very good :) We appreciated a lot the time spent with him !

We liked Hideaki so much that we booked another night! Spent some time together in an tiny Golden Gai bar sampling Okinawan food. Good fun!

My husband and I enjoyed spending time with Hideaki. He responded to all our emails promptly and was right on time at the designated meeting place. Before heading to Kabuki-cho, he showed us this back alley jammed with old-style wooden bars filled with businessmen eating, drinking and smoking. It was like something out of a movie (the first part of Gremlins came to mind). My husband and I would have never found that place on our own--we never even knew it existed--but we are glad Hideaki took us there. (We even went back the next day with our nicer camera to take more photos.) We then proceeded to Kabuki-cho. Hideaki pointed out some of the different entertainment establishments as we strolled around. Hideaki was very easy to talk to--relaxed, personable--and his English is amazing. It was like hanging out with a friend. (Part of that may be due to the fact that we are all around the same age.) I would recommend Hideaki to anyone looking for a "local" in Tokyo.

We had a really great night with Hideaki and got to eat fantastic versions of yakitori which we would not have discovered otherwise. Likewise with Japanese 'standing bars'. Hideaki is knowledgeable, fun and good company. Highly recommended.

I had a great night with the company of Hideaki around Kabukicho. He pointed out interesting information about the area/shops which I wouldn't have known by just walking around myself. We ended the night at one of the izakayas in the area, and indulged ourselves with Japanese beer and yakitoris.

I came to Japan on business but I had a couple of free days to spend in Tokyo is so huge that you can just spend hours trying to figure out how to get to different places so having this site is so helpful with guides like Hideaki who really know their way around Tokyo. We went to a very good ramen place and then he showed me around Shinjuku and the little local bars where men sit and drink and eat. It was amazing to see these. He also took me to the hotel where lost in translation was filmed (even though I am sure he did not like the movie he was still happy to do this). I was so excited to see this place and to have a drink and see the view from the bar in which several scenes took place. I really enjoyed talking with him, he is very kind and easygoing. Thanks again and hope to see you again one day!
