Què farem?
We'll help you understand the Japanese lesbian scene from top to bottom.
There are a few big bars and clubs in Shinjuku Nichome that you can visit on your own, but we'll take you to the cozy, intimate spaces that the locals here really visit.
More than simply bar hopping, in this experience, while walking around the area, we'll explain the culture and history, and the manner and style of each type of bar, so you can understand the meaning of the places we visit. You'll be able to feel comfortable and at home here, just like we do.
We'll visit two bars of different styles, along with one club. The first bar is run by a lesbian couple, who are its owners and exclusive bartenders. The second bar is exclusively for women, and is loved as a place for its guests to relax and be themselves. The final spot will be a club mainly for women, where we can try karaoke and party! Locations may change based on availability.
Each of these spots is hidden and difficult to find for travelers. But don't worry, with us you'll be able to go anywhere with no problem. I go to all of these spots regularly, and I'm excited to show you how we do LGBTQ in Japan!

I've been hosting a LGBTQ tour in Shinjuku Nichome for two years, and enjoying drinking and exploring Tokyo's gay areas for five. Having studied sexuality and gender studies in university, I came to love Nichome not just as a party spot, but while doing fieldwork there, as a social landmark for LGBTQ people. There are many LGBT bars in Tokyo, but I make a point of visiting as many as possible, and love making real connections with the bar masters. For this experience, I'm happy to offer a course with bars cis and trans women can enjoy. The girls of Shinjuku Nichome are excited to have you!

On aniràs?
We'll visit a total of three locations, with two lesbian bars and one lesbian club. As is common in the Nichome style, each bar is very intimate and made for easy talking with the bar masters and guests.
The first bar is run by a lesbian couple, and loved by its regulars for the conversation they provide.
The second bar is for women only, and its guests enjoy being themselves here alongside other women.
Last, we'll visit a lesbian club and party!

This tour was definitely one of my highlights in Tokyo! Naoki and Yukie are so fun to hang out with and passionate, and they took us to some amazing places in Shinjuku Nichome that I could never ever find by myself - the places that locals go to. I really liked the atmosphere of the places I went to.
First, we went to a cozy bar run by a lesbian couple that had great vibes, at first I was surprised that it was so small but I really felt that it helped us have better communication with the other guests, and the couple who run the bar took the time out to talk and laugh with us.
Next, we went to a bar for girls only, but I wouldn’t have known that from the outside, they just took us into a door on a narrow street that I never would have tried to enter. I thought it was very interesting because even though it was similar to the first bar, the style of the bartender and patrons was really different and I could feel how each bar has its own unique culture.
Last, we went to a lounge where there were mostly girls and I got the chance to talk with a lot of new people in a relaxed setting. It was very easy to enter so I hope to bring my friends there next time I come to Tokyo. I felt like I really got a sense of the LGBT scene in Tokyo from these three different bars and even though it was only a few hours I had such a great time and learned so much. Thank you, Yukie and Naoki!

When I came on this experience, I had already visited Shinjuku Nichome a few times and thought I knew the scene pretty well, but I didn’t know how wrong I was! I had gone to the more popular clubs in the area, but my fabulous hosts Naoki and Yukie went right past them and took us to two tiny bars I had never heard of, and a club with mostly lesbians that I didn’t know about at all. I was a little nervous to come on this experience by myself, but I didn’t feel at all awkward as Naoki is so hilarious and easy going, and we all became fast friends. That said, he takes the experience very seriously and had prepared an amazing selection of slides (that he calls a Nichome Bible) so we could get to know the history of the area and about the LGBT situation in Japan. I learned so much and also made so many friends from this experience, and ended up having so much fun that I joined Naoki again for another night in Nichome later that week. Thank you Naoki and Yukie!! ❤️
