Overview

Shibuya is one of the most electrifying areas in the world — but crossing the famous scramble crossroads is just the beginning.
This 2-hour tour opens with Taro Okamoto's monumental mural, then plunges into the hidden side of Shibuya: the gritty nightlife alleys of Dogenzaka, the mysterious love hotel district, and the underground culture most tourists never see.
We then shift gears entirely — stepping into the peaceful greenery of Yoyogi Park and the serene 1,000-year-old Okuden Shrine, where the city noise fades away. From there, we race through Parco and Miyashita Park before discovering Tower Records and Nonbei Yokocho, a nostalgic alley still breathing the spirit of old Tokyo.
The tour ends 60 metres above the streets at Hikarie, where you'll look down over the scramble crossing and every corner you just explored.
Forget the guidebook. Two hours from now, you'll know Shibuya better than anyone.
Book now and feel the real pulse of Shibuya.
