Spend an atmospheric evening like a local, exploring Endoji, one of Nagoya’s oldest and most character-rich covered shopping streets. Just a short walk from Nagoya Station, this nostalgic district blends the charm of mid-20th century Japan with a vibrant local community. It’s home to independent shops, small eateries, temples, and neighborhood bars where locals gather after work.
Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, you’ll stop at two local izakaya (Japanese-style gastropubs). Your first stop offers a variety of iconic “Nagoya-meshi” — the region’s signature comfort foods — paired with a drink of your choice. Afterward, continue to a second izakaya, where you’ll choose between two experiences: a sake tasting flight curated by local experts, or two glasses of locally produced Japanese wine.
Perfect for food lovers and cultural explorers alike, this evening tour immerses you in the rhythms of Nagoya nightlife while introducing you to the soul of the city — its food, its people, and its hidden stories.
Meet your guide and begin your stroll to Endoji Shopping Arcade, with a brief introduction to the area’s history and culture.
Enjoy your first stop at “Syabaram,” a friendly neighborhood izakaya featuring local specialties such as miso katsu, tebasaki chicken wings, and kishimen noodles, served with a drink of your choice.
Take a short stroll through the atmospheric alleys of Endoji and learn about its postwar charm and community spirit.
Option 1: “Polo” – Sake tasting flight with handpicked seasonal side dishes
