    • Meet and greet your tour guide at the agreed-upon location and navigate through 3 neighborhoods, Yanaka, Nezu, and Sendagi, in Bunkyo Ward as the locals call it "YA-NE-SEN".  The area mostly survived the air raids in 1945 so a few traditional Japanese houses and original architecture remain in the area with narrow streets including the Shinto Shrine built in the 18th century. 

    • See the traditional Japanese houses preserved and used by the locals and delve into the nostalgic part of the city.

    • Walk the narrow streets to move from one neighborhood to the other to explore old temples, small shops, and cafes. 

    • Visit the typical old-time shopping street, Yanaka Ginza, where you will find local stores.  You will have many chances to taste local snacks, craft beer, or local sake during the tour.

    • The tour will end at your hotel or a place you request.
