About this activity

The tour begins in Shibuya, from where you will visit the famous Shibuya Crossing, one of Tokyo’s most iconic landmarks. The tour then continues to Meiji Shrine, a peaceful sanctuary surrounded by forest and dedicated to Emperor Meiji.

Next, you will take the train to the Imperial Palace, the main residence of the Japanese imperial family, where there will be time to admire the surroundings and take photos. After that, you will explore Akihabara, known as the center of anime and manga culture.

The next stop is Asakusa, home to the historic Senso-ji Temple and a lively shopping street filled with traditional snacks and souvenirs. Guests who select the lunch option will enjoy a local meal, while others will have free time to explore and eat at their leisure.

The tour ends in Asakusa for those who choose the Basic option. If you select the Skytree ticket option (with or without lunch), the tour continues to Tokyo Skytree, where you can go up and enjoy panoramic views of the city.
