Your guide holds a "River Bar-Hopping" sign.
For two spectacular spring weeks the Meguro River becomes a tunnel of pink petals—and even when the blossoms are gone, its lantern-lit quayside remains one of Tokyo's prettiest night walks. With a bilingual local guide you'll sip a riverside pint straight from a takeaway window, tuck into charcoal yakitori at a neighbourhood institution, then climb to the second floor of a flagship craft-beer taproom for a final toast above the water. Expect crowds during peak bloom, but also once-in-a-year magic: falling petals in your glass and soft pink reflections dancing on the canal.
Three riverside venues, all within 300 m:
Guided craft-beer pour · charcoal skewers with sake · three-beer flight & New Haven-style pizza slice
Cherry-blossom photography at the famous red-lantern bridge (weekdays 17 : 30 start avoids the heaviest crowds)
Group capped at six so everyone gets rail-side space
