Tokyo Pub Crawl

80% guys, a little touchy. Probably because practically no other girls at the event. Usually about 100 or so guys on this crawl, so if you don’t mind being stared at like a piece of meat and being shoved and stepped on, then this event is for you.

I love the concept, but can be a bit of a clusterf*ck in my opinion. TPC has «look at us we are tourists!!» written all over. With that said, you are more susceptible to getting ripped the f*ck off. 7800 yen ($ 65) for 3 drinks and 2 beers. Oh c’mon, we’re foreign not stupid. Overall, we had fun. Lots of people to mingle with. Mostly foreigners and army brats.
Tip: If you’re going to miss the first couple of places due to timing, no worries! Message them on facebook and they will get back to you asap on their current location! Loved how fast and efficient the communication was. Also the organizer was extremely apologetic when the third place ripped us off and even got the owner to reimburse us some of the money.

Excellent fun. If you need some drinks, make friends, and have a good time this is a cheap way to do it. Starts at Propaganda and then they take you to two more places there in Roppongi and then end in a nightclub… the one they took us to was nice enough and very fun. Only reason I give it a 4 and not a five is because at the end they take you to a «after party», which is voluntary, at an apparently fancy place. Having lived recently in Miami I wasn’t in the mood for paying $ 10 for a $ 4 beer
wife and I skipped it for the best Dominoes Pizza ever lol. Overall, highly recommend it. Warning: with all the free booze they give you, you will be drunk at the end of the night. Girls alone don’t need to worry about the Japanese men whom are incredibly well behaved and fun even when drunk, it’s the Americans and Europeans you need to watch for! If it’s the case you don’t want that kind of attention — you’ll be fine if you do.

Want to quickly meet some friends in Tokyo? This is a pretty easy way to do it. I was traveling alone in Tokyo and wanted to experience some night life so I found a recommendation for this pub crawl.
The crawl takes you to four different places in Roppongi, three bars and one club. I checked out their website and booked a spot, you end up saving a few hundred yen if you preregister. I got an email with a barcode in it and was good to go.
I showed up only a few minutes late on Saturday night but was one of the first to get there. The first bar was Propaganda (don’t remember the others). You get scanned in and head to the bar. At first I was thinking I made a mistake as the first 15 minutes or so was only about 10 guys. But in the next half hour, a steady stream of partiers came through the door. By the time everyone showed, the bar was packed. The organizer got on a bull horn and we got a complimentary shot before rolling on to the next few bars. The bars were all decent and catered to expats. They were a bit crowded though from the size of the group. We ended the night in a club with a dance floor for everyone to enjoy.
There was a good mix of people there from all over the world. There were Japanese, a few Americans, Aussies, Kiwis, and a bunch of Europeans. Making friends was easy and ended up having a great time.
