Overview

Tokyo’s Ebisu area blends sophisticated urban style with a local vibe that sets it apart from more touristy districts.

On this se;f-guided walking tour, you’ll explore what locals call “Tokyo’s big local city” – a community-focused area known for exceptional dining, stylish boutiques, and cultural attractions. You’ll also discover how this former brewery district became one of Tokyo’s most desirable areas.

The tour starts at the iconic Ebisu statue outside the station, named after one of Japan’s Seven Lucky Gods and the Yebisu Beer once brewed nearby. As you stroll past vibrant murals, you’ll find out how this area evolved from an industrial brewing centre into a sophisticated urban hotspot, while maintaining its unique character.
