C'est le point de rendez-vous. Nous y retrouverons les autres participants de la tournée de ce soir.

Welcome to Kabukicho, Tokyo’s most famous and dazzling nightlife district! Often called “the city that never sleeps”, Kabukicho bursts with neon lights, buzzing bars, themed restaurants, karaoke lounges, and every kind of entertainment imaginable. Whether you’re here for a drink, a show, or just people-watching, you’ll feel the electric energy the moment you step in. What makes it special is its endless variety—from stylish cocktail bars to quirky themed cafés and retro pubs, it’s a place where every night tells a different story.

Tucked right beside Shinjuku Station, Omoide Yokocho—literally “Memory Lane”—is a narrow maze of tiny eateries that takes you straight back to post-war Tokyo. Here, the air is thick with the aroma of grilled yakitori, the glow of paper lanterns, and the sound of friendly chatter spilling out of tiny 6-seat bars. Each shop is a pocket of history, run by owners who’ve been serving locals for generations. This is the place to experience old-school Tokyo charm: order skewers, sip sake, and chat shoulder-to-shoulder with locals and travelers alike.

Step into Golden Gai, a legendary nightlife enclave hidden in the heart of Shinjuku. Comprised of a few narrow alleys packed with over 200 miniature bars—some no larger than a living room—Golden Gai offers an intimate, almost secret atmosphere unlike anywhere else in the world. Each bar has its own personality: jazz bars, film-themed spots, punk dens, or quiet whiskey hideouts. It’s a place where strangers become friends, and every doorway hides a story waiting to be told.
