Bar Hopping in SHIOGAMA

Eat and drink like a Shiogama local!

Highlights

Ready to become an Izakaya Master??

Join us for a night of eating and drinking like a Shiogama local down the atmospheric bar town!
 
Undiscovered by most visitors to the city, a step down these places are just like discovering local areas. As most only sit around 8-10 customers at a time, it can be a little intimidating to enter on your own, but on this tour, you’ll be joined by a local guide! Let them introduce you to all the best places and help you navigate the language barrier as you eat, drink and chat to the friendly locals.
 
On this tour you’ll enjoy a drink of your choice and a plate of local food at three different styles of izakaya. Discover new favorits and learn to order like a pro!
