Ready to become an Izakaya Master??
Join us for a night of eating and drinking like a Sendai local down the atmospheric back-alleys of Bunka-yokocho and Iroha-yokocho!
Undiscovered by most visitors to the city, a step down these alleyways is a step back in time to retro post-war Showa Era Japan!
Follow your nose down the lines of hundreds of tiny izakayas (Japanese pubs), bars and restaurants – it might be daunting, but you can’t go wrong!
Each offers tasty local food and plenty of local sake to wash it down.
As most bars 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.
