Excursion at Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum
40-minute train+bus ride from Shinjuku will take you back in time. At Edo-Tokyo Open Air Architectural Museum, 30+ buildings as old as centuries have been reconstructed, relocated and preserved on its ground. Not only can you appreciate marvelous exterior which you will hardly be able to find in modern Tokyo, but you can actually step inside and look into every detail in the buildings. There is no better place to offer fascinating insights into everyday life in Japan’s good old days!

Tokyo Tour Reviews
“A wonderful guide.”
Yui was a lot of fun to be with. She took us to as much as possible on our list, and we were all exhausted at the end. She had suggested doing the Kill Bill restaurant in her itinerary, and we enjoyed that along with the rest of the day. It was a busy, fun day, and we thank her for that
