Tokyo City Tour

Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at the meeting point of your choice. From there, we'll start this full tour of Tokyo by bus to Kabukicho, a popular Japanese bar area.

We'll then go to Shinto Meiji Jingu, one of the most famous Shinto shrines in Japan. Afterwards, we'll pass through Harajuku, the Omotesando shopping district and the National Diet building, the seat of the Japanese parliament.

The route then continues past the Imperial Palace, the current residence of the emperor, where you'll also see the Edo Castle, a symbol of the Japanese capital. After learning about the history of Japan, we'll visit Akihabara, a paradise for technology and anime lovers. We'll also pass through Ueno and the Kappa-Bashi shopping street, where you'll see numerous kitchen items, such as Japanese dishes, knives and lifelike food replicas.

Our tour will then continue to the famous Asakusa district. There, we'll walk along Nakamise shopping avenue and make a photo stop at Kaminari-mon, a gate with an iconic red lantern that has become a symbol.

In Asakusa, we'll enjoy a tea or matcha ice cream tasting. In addition, if you opt for the option with lunch, we'll enjoy a delicious traditional Japanese lunch at an izakaya, the traditional Japanese tavern. If you prefer to refuel on your own, you'll have about an hour of free time in Asakusa.

After lunch, we'll meet back up and head to the Tokyo Skytree. With a height of 634 m (2,080 ft), it's the tallest communications tower in Japan—you'll love it! After enjoying the view, we'll go to Sora-machi shopping mall.

From there, we'll head to the Odaiba area, where we'll take an unforgettable boat ride on Tokyo Bay. Along the way, we'll see the Rainbow Bridge and view Tokyo's skyscrapers.

At the end of the cruise, we'll return to the bus to pass by the Tokyo Tower, the Roppongi district and the Olympic Stadium. Finally, we'll conclude this 10-hour tour in the vicinity of Shinjuku Station.
