Overview

This is a 3-hour walking bar crawl led by a local guide through Kyoto's Kawaramachi and Kiyamachi neighborhoods. The tour visits two main areas where you can find traditional bars and izakayas that are not easy for foreigners to locate on their own. First, the group spends about 80 minutes in the busy Shijo Kawaramachi area, known as Kyoto's tourism center, where you can try local foods like yakitori and karaage, and enjoy Japanese sake. Next, the tour takes a 10-minute walk along Kiyamachi Street, a lively area with many bars and nightclubs popular with locals. Finally, you'll spend approximately 80 minutes at a local bar in Kiyamachi, exploring small bars tucked into alleys to experience authentic Kyoto nightlife. The tour includes the 3-hour guide service and has no admission fees. Food and alcoholic drinks are not included and must be purchased separately. Alcoholic beverages are not suitable for guests aged 19 or under. If you have dietary restrictions, it’s important to inform the operator ahead of time. The total cost is split among participants, with small amounts rounded up for convenience.
