You've already seen the Godzilla Head and the 3D Cat. The next step is the Shinjuku that doesn't show up on anyone's map: parks where you can actually hear yourself think, shrines that have been here longer than the neighborhood around them, and backstreets that look like nothing and turn out to be the whole point of the trip.
Your Local Expert has been walking these streets long enough to know which ones are worth slowing down for. The route shifts based on what you're curious about. Some corners have stories that take a minute to tell. That's usually where things get interesting.

We loved this tour as a way to see and gain a better understanding for Shinjuku, which can be overwhelming if you don't know your way around. The private tour allowed us to go at our own pace, which felt like meeting up with a friend rather than being overly touristy. This was definitely a highlight of our trip, and we would absolutely reach out to Lime again next time we visit!

Overview
Ya has visto la cabeza de Godzilla y el gato en 3D. El siguiente paso es el Shinjuku que no aparece en ningún mapa: parques donde puedes reflexionar tranquilamente, santuarios que llevan aquí más tiempo que el barrio que los rodea y callejuelas que parecen insignificantes pero que resultan ser la clave del viaje.
Tu experto local lleva recorriendo estas calles el tiempo suficiente para saber cuáles merecen la pena. La ruta se adapta según tus intereses. Algunos rincones tienen historias que se cuentan en un instante. Ahí es donde suele empezar lo interesante.
Compras personales, recuerdos o actividades opcionales.
Conversación de planificación previa a la experiencia a través de la aplicación TOMOGO!.
Transporte hasta el punto de encuentro y durante la experiencia.
Paradas flexibles o ajustes de itinerario cuando corresponda.
