  • Great experience to join the pub crawl with Jens. Since the beginning he was super nice and helping the group to integrate. Arrived alone and left with new friends. Strongly recommended!

  • A great way to connect to people from around the world over drinks and visit Kyoto’s many locations each with their own unique vibes! Everyone was so friendly so I think it’s also perfect for solo travelers wanting to meet up with people!

  • I had an amazing night out with Jens who showed me all the cool local places to go out. We even sang a karaoke duet and got in touch with a bunch of locals. Would do this pub crawl over and over again.
