As I was on my own in Tokyo, I wanted to get a quick look around and see as much as possible in the short time available. The idea being that I could come back and spend more time on those attractions that I liked. This tour helped me see a lot of Tokyo in a short time. It is well worth taking.

Very helpful guide who was proud of his nation and wanted to share his capital with the visitors. Lunch was excellent and the venue superb - would recommend this tour to anyone who visits Tokyo.

We did this trip within a few days of arriving in Tokyo. This was an excellent tour that enabled us to orientate ourselves around Tokyo central and surrounding suburbs. Well worthwhile if you have a short stopover in Tokyo. Only issue was not having not enough time to shop for gifts in Asakusa - we returned on another day.

Very informative and friendly host and bus driver. Great way to see major sights in a short time and get a local understanding of other sights to see and how to get around Tokyo.

This tour was definitely worth the price! The sites were interesting and, for the most part, the tour guide and information couldn't have been better. And the lunch was fantastic - a real surprise. Lovely view, beautiful ambiance, and nice food. I'd recommend it again!

I thought it hit some important spots and the guide was very good - she told a lot of stories from her own life and even showed pictures. I was a single traveller and didn't feel out of place.

Great tour covering the main sites in Tokyo. The boat trip was particularly enjoyable.

Tour company and guide were excellent. The guide spoke excellent English and had great information and stories to share. Lunch was very good, and there was a good mix of activities. It was very good value and we could not have done it any better or cheaper on our own.

The tour was a great way to get around and see Tokyo. Unfortunately, it was a hot, humid September day in Tokyo and the bus had only very minimal air conditioning. It meant there was no good place to cool off after walking around the temples or palace, so as the day went on it became more difficult to enjoy the sights because we were hot and tired. The bay cruise was also neat, but the trip to the mall at the end was a waste. I could visit a regular mall in the US anytime and this one was not really any different. It would've been better to just finish the tour after the cruise or go to a more unique, historical location. I definitely recommend the tour as a way to see a lot of Tokyo in a single day, but there were definitely things that would've made it a more enjoyable day.

It rained heavily in the morning and this put a damper on the trip. Our tour guide kept repeating the same thing over and over again. People on our tour should have been given a voucher to repeat the trip.

We didn't really feel like our tour guide was up to par. He didn't seem to know a lot of information about the area and had a tendency to repeat the same information over and over. He didn't wait for everyone to get off of the bus before he started to talk, so we missed some stuff.

The tour of Tokyo was great! We did have one problem - the group on our tour bus was so large that by the time those at the back of the bus had gotten off, the tour guide had already begun speaking. I think I missed twelve of the guide's descriptions, and we had to decide whether to try to keep up, or just to take pictures and look up the details on the internet later.
