Overview

Shibuya is one of the most visited neighborhoods in Tokyo. Most people see the crossing, walk the main streets, and leave feeling like they covered it. There is a lot more to it than that.
This tour is for guests who want to see the neighborhood properly. Your Local Expert takes you through the streets, alleys, and hidden corners that do not show up on a standard tourist route. A secret park, local shrines, independent shops, and the parts of Shibuya that have stayed quiet despite everything around them.
Before the tour, your Local Expert will reach out through the TOMOGO! app to find out what you are after. The tour gets shaped around that conversation.
Most guests spend two to three hours in the neighborhood.

What you will do

Meet Your Local Expert at Shibuya StationWe meet at Shibuya Station. Your Local Expert gives you a quick read of the neighborhood before the day begins, what lies beyond the crossing and the crowds, and where the day is headed.
Step Away from the Main StreetsYour Local Expert takes you off the tourist paths and into the quieter streets behind the landmarks. Narrow alleyways, local shrines, and the parts of Shibuya that most visitors never reach.
Discover the Spots Worth FindingYour Local Expert points you toward the boutiques, cafes, and bookstores that belong to this neighborhood. Not the ones promoted online, but the ones that locals actually go to.
Finish with a Local RecommendationAs the tour wraps up, your Local Expert will point you toward wherever the rest of your day should go, the right spot for the evening or the next part of the city worth exploring.

Our guide took us to some amazing hidden spots in Shibuya. The crowds were a bit much, but the food made up for it. Highly recommend!
