– Feel the Shinto vibe as you cross a vibrant red arch in Nezu Shrine, a portal into another world. We’ll head for Nezu shrine, one of the oldest shrines in Tokyo. While your guide shares Japanese cultural and historical tidbits, we’ll take great photos in and around the tunnel.

– Craft a lucky cat for your travel memory in a cafe of the old folk house. After a nice long walk, we will rest in a cafe with a drink and sweet. This is the first cafe in Japan that provides workshops to craft lucky cat statues that will bring luck and happiness. Let’s paint your statue with your favorite color and patterns, and make your cat keep your memory from Japan for good.

– Dive into the local lifestyle! Stroll the backstreets of a quiet local area. After visiting the famous Himalayan Cedar tree, we’ll visit Yanaka Ginza, a long local shopping street which represents the flavors of Tokyo’s old neighborhoods.
