Spend an evening with a local guide at two carefully selected venues: one authentic local izakaya and one local bar. Food and drinks are completely optional and paid separately at each venue. This is primarily a seated social and cultural experience, not a walking tour.

Begin at a welcoming izakaya where local residents gather to eat, drink, and relax. Your guide will explain Japanese izakaya customs, help you understand the menu, and recommend dishes and drinks according to your preferences and budget.

Then visit one local bar chosen for its atmosphere and authentic connection to Kanazawa’s nightlife. Depending on availability and local conditions, this may be a sake bar, a hidden area bar, or another small venue popular with residents. The experience always includes one izakaya and one local bar.

Rather than visiting tourist-oriented establishments alone, enjoy both venues with a guide who can help with ordering, explain local etiquette, and make conversation easier. You can choose whether to eat or drink and how much to order at each stop.

The short transfer between the two venues is only a practical part of the evening. The main experience takes place seated inside the izakaya and bar.

This is a small-group experience, and guests from multiple bookings may participate together. Solo travellers, couples, and friends are welcome. A private option may also be available for guests who prefer a more personal evening.

The tour is conducted in English. When needed, AI-powered translation support is available in over 150 languages.

Please note: Food, drinks, seating charges such as otoshi, and the guide’s food and drinks are not included in the booking price and are paid locally.
