Brilliant: well organised; good schedule; excellent guide: will book again!

Trip was well plan , Well organised. Staff was helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend viator .

It was terrible. There was a storm coming and it was raining hard all the time, and the wind was very strong, destroying our umbrellas. They cancelled the boat cruse and refunded us or that, but I would have preferred it if they had given us the option to cancel out of the tour altogether, considering the bad weather. We couldn't even get out of the bus without being drenched. It was the low point of my trip to Tokyo.

Good value for money.

Great little trip with a very informative guide taking in a number of city highlights. The only downside was that on the cruise I ended up sitting at the back of the barge where the windows were difficult to see out of and you couldn't hear the guide. Other than that all good.

We had arrived in Tokyo on the overnight flight from Sydney and wanted an introduction to the city. We had, therefore, booked this trip prior to our departure from the UK. Overall, it was excellent and provided us with lots of information about Tokyo and its sights which we were able to utilise over our next three days there. The guide was superb and the pick-up and drop-off went according to plan. This is an essential trip for first-time visitors to Tokyo and well worth the cost.

Guides not very interesting or interested. Views of Imperial Palace a bit of a joke. Boat trip ok.

good thing we chose the afternoon tour as it was bright and sunny. we were able to see the skyscrapers along the sumida river. the guide was good, gave us lots of information from the start till the end of the tour. He was also friendly and smiling face. :-)

Doing what: Tokyo Highlights Afternoon Tour and Sumida River Cruise

We did this short tour on our arrival in Japan and it gave us a great feel for the city and the people. Our guide was interesting and spoke reasonable English. There was time for us to spend on our own, and seeing the Emperor's entourage leaving the Palace by horse and carriage was an unexpected bonus. The boat trip back to our starting point showed a different perspective on the City but added little to the experience.

The tour provided everything we wanted - a short overview of the city. Guide was very friendly and informative.Very satisfied

Doing what: Tokyo Highlights Afternoon Tour and Sumida River Cruise

This tour was a great way to get a feel for Tokyo in a short period. There was a good mix of sightseeing from the bus and stops to get out, take pictures, go to the fantastic market and temple. Being in the afternoon in winter it was dusk by the time we boarded to River Cruise and it was lovely to watch darkness fall and all the lights appear as we cruised. Our guide was good and made sure we knew how to return to our hotel at the end of the day

Enjoyed this tour as well. Guide gave us complete information about Japan. Guide was good and very friendly and helpful.Thanks

Too speedy. My mum walks very slowly with walking sticks and I was informed that this tour only was a bus tour. Even so we had to walk long distances and in a hurry. Not too impressed. But the views are great and it is probably a great tour for the one that is fit.

We had a great time. At least managed to have an English speaking guide who understands what we want. Also got to see certain historical parts of Tokyo. Half day was about nice. Thanks a lot.
