Tour Details

At the designated time, we'll meet at the Hachikō statue, Japan's most loyal and famous dog. From this spot outside Tokyo's Shibuya Station, we'll start our free walking tour of Shibuya. Ready to discover one of the most iconic neighborhoods of the Japanese capital?

First, we'll set off to the nearby Shibuya Hikarie, a building standing at 600 ft (183 m) that houses the Shibuya Hikarie Sky Lobby, an indoor observation deck with glass-walled panoramic views overlooking the famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing, train tracks, and the city skyline. Then, we'll walk to the district of Nonbei Yokocho, known for its narrow, lantern-lit alleyways lined with Izakaya pubs and restaurants.

We'll then head to Miyashita Park, just 5 minutes away, one of the few green spaces within the business neighborhood of Shibuya Ward. Afterward, we'll walk for about 5 minutes until we reach Center Gai, a popular area with brand-name stores, fast food outlets, and nightclubs. Here, you'll discover different konbinis. Curious to know what they are? We'll tell you all about them!

Next, we'll reach the Udagawacho district, known for its vibrant nightlife and shopping streets. Along with boutiques and restaurants, this area has art galleries and live music venues.

Finally, we'll head back to our starting point in the area of Dogenzaka, where we'll end our 2-hour tour.
