The real golden-gai

Published on Feb, 2024

Golden-Gai is a really interesting area.... Went to places I'd never think to check out. The vibe was laid-back, and the drinks were top-notch. Shoutout to Chika, our guide, for making it a night to remember. Great for anyone up for something a bit different!

MUST DO!

Published on Feb, 2024

Had a blast on this bar-hopping tour! Found some cool spots that aren't your typical hangouts. Our guide, knew her stuff and made it feel like we were just out with friends. If you're into exploring offbeat places, this is right up your alley!
