This tour covers major sightseeing spots, Tsukiji outer-Market, Hamarikyu traditional garden, and Asakusa in 5 hours. The outer market has many retail shops and sushi restaurants, so you can still enjoy the bustling market street. After feeling the energy of the market, we move to a beautiful traditional garden, Hamarikyu. It was once a palace and garden of Tokugawa shoguns. From the garden, we ride on a water bus that runs to Asakusa. Please enjoy a one-hour Sumida river cruise to Asakusa.

“5 stars! Amazing!”
Michiko was incredible! Very knowledgeable and fun to work with. We enjoyed every minute with her and what she had to say about the places we visited. We asked her to come on an hop on/off bus and she was able to show us all of Tokyo and give us the history and information about everything we saw. I would 10/10 book her again. Thank you!

(94 reviews)Dear Jacob, Thank you very much for giving me such an excellent review. Yes, your request is a bit unusual. That's why I enjoyed a hop on/off bus riding. Especially, it was beautiful scenery we could see the Tokyo Bayside at sunset from the double-decker bus. Thank you for giving me such a nice opportunity. Unique requests are always welcome. Michiko
