What to Expect
You arrive in Kusatsu, a hot spring town in Gunma Prefecture long known as one of Japan’s premier onsen destinations. After a day around the famous Yubatake hot spring field at the town’s center, the evening opens up a different side of Kusatsu — one shaped by the locals and regulars who gather in the small bars and izakayas tucked into the streets surrounding the resort area. Your guide meets you and sets the tone for a relaxed, on-foot night out.
From there, you move through three distinct stops across Kusatsu’s walkable bar streets. At each venue, you settle in, order drinks, and engage with the space at your own pace before moving on to the next. Your guide navigates the route, introduces each spot, and helps bridge any language gap between you and the bar. The progression across three different bars gives you a cross-section of how locals drink and unwind in this mountain town.
By the end of the tour, you will have sat down at three separate Kusatsu bars, ordered and consumed drinks at each, and moved through a portion of the town’s nightlife on foot. Each stop adds a different layer to how the evening builds — from the first drink to the final bar, you close out the night with a grounded sense of how Kusatsu looks after dark, beyond the onsen and tourist routes.
