Complaints from Overseas Tourists about the Lack of Nightlife Tours in Tokyo

Many of the complaints about Japanese tours revealed that from interviews with over 200 foreign travelers visiting Japan, was the lack of nightlife themed tours available. While many of the overseas travelers who have visited Japan are satisfied with Japan’s high hospitality and historical cultural content, there are however complaints such as “I wanted to experience Japan at night more”, “I want to talk with local people in Japan”, and “I wanted to play at night, such as drinking at a pub but I could not experience these activities as many shops could not understand English”. In response to those voices, Magical Trip created a tour where you can experience bar hopping in izakayas (Japanese bars). You can enjoy a unique experience in Japan, “Inside a crowded narrow shop” “Meat that you do not normally eat (but tasty and safe!)” “What serious Japanese office workers do after work”.

 

The average age of tour participants is late 20s to early 40s. Tour representing the “want” based consumption

The average age of the participants is as young as the late 20s to early 40s, and their nationalities are from the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom. It can be said that Westerners of younger generations have a high interest in traditional Japanese food and the culture of sake/izakaya. Tokyo Bar Hopping is a tour that represents the “want” based consumption from overseas tourists, especially Westerners who think “I want to experience something I cannot do without coming to Japan” or “I want to go to a place that is ‘super local’ as well as going to sightseeing spots”.
