**Yokohama's Noge has a "real night" that most travelers have yet to discover.** Just a short distance from Minato Mirai and Chinatown lies an old-school yokocho (alley district) where the spirit of the Showa era still lingers. Noge, Yokohama — a neighborhood lined with beloved bars and eateries where loyal regulars keep coming back. This is a place rarely found in tourist guidebooks, known only to those in the know. Your guide, Shigeo, is a true food industry professional. After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America (CIA), he gained hands-on experience with world-renowned F&B brands — joining the menu development and operations management teams at Anna Miller's, serving as a member of the Japan opening team at Hooters, and becoming the general manager of the first Ruth's Chris Steak House in Japan. On this tour, Shigeo personally selects the best spots in Noge and takes you on a guided bar-hopping journey. Even if you are not a big drinker, there is no need to worry. From choosing the right restaurant to understanding the stories behind the food and drinks, enjoy Shigeo's expert commentary as you savor the best of Yokohama's nightlife. Experience the feeling of "drinking with a local friend" — that is what makes this tour truly special.
