In the middle of Tokyo’s hectic, raucous streets there exists a haven - it’s called Sangenjaya. Get to know its down-to-earth character and mellow streets with a host by your side, as you amble from teahouses to bakeries, sampling as many ramen varieties on your way as you can! You could visit Carrot Tower (on a clear day you can see all the way to Mount Fuji!) or the Setagaya Public Theatre, where they perform stylized Japanese dance dramas. Round off your time at the Sangenjaya Setagaya 233 Gallery; a kitsch, independent space. Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.
