You will begin at the birthplace of Ginza, where your guide will talk about how this once simple silver mint area grew into one of Tokyo’s most iconic and fashionable districts.

You will visit Ginza’s famous symbols such as the Wako Building and the Mitsukoshi Lion statue. In this area, you can find hidden spots like small angel and monkey figures, as well as a shrine hidden in a narrow alley.

You will then move between Ginza’s busy main streets and its back alleys. Some of the small shops in these backstreets have been around since the wartime period, offering a rare look at Ginza’s older side.

You will learn how the former Kojun Building played an important role in Ginza’s development, and how it helped influence how Ginza looks and feels today.

You will walk past the Toyoiwa Inari Shrine. This shrine has stood here since the early Edo period and has long been cherished by locals, including famous Kabuki actors. You will then head back towards Ginza 5-chome where you can take photos of old‑fashioned alleys and visit small neighborhood shrines.

You will finish the tour at the Kabuki‑za Theater, the main stage for traditional Kabuki performances and one of Ginza’s most iconic landmarks.
