Discover the best of Tokyo with our half-day Tokyo Sightseeing Tour. Led by one of our super local insider guides, you’ll visit some of the city’s most iconic sites, come up close with Japanese culture, and experience day-to-day life in Tokyo as you ride the world-famous Tokyo Metro. This Tokyo Tour is the perfect way to get acquainted with the mega-metropolis of Tokyo at the start of a visit to the city, or a great way to get a glimpse of the city for those short on time.

Start the day at JR Hamamatsucho Station, and ride the Tokyo Metro, arriving at the Hamarikyu Gardens, one of Tokyo’s most spectacular green lungs, dating to the Edo Period formerly a duck-hunting ground for feudal lords. Continue to the Senso-Ji Temple, the oldest temple in Tokyo, as you learn about the importance of religion and spirituality in Japanese culture – often seen as a conflict in Japan where mega-modern and traditions in Japanese culture sit side by side. See the market stalls outside the shrine which have been around for hundreds of years, selling unique Japanese products, crafts, and trinkets. After lunch at a local restaurant, for the final stop of our Ultimate Tokyo Tour, we’ll ascend the Tokyo SkyTree, a modern icon of this historic city. See the changing skyline and understand modern Tokyo. End the tour with a deeper knowledge of this unique city, ready to explore further, or continue on your travels having seen the highlights of Tokyo.
