Did this tour about 15 years ago and wanted to do it again. The formula is the same as all those years ago, well done for sticking to something that works so well. Our tour guide was very personable and gave us a lot of insights into Japanese life. Our thanks to all.

Great trip! Very informative guide. Ran like clockwork. Guide tried to make sure that you got the most that you could out of what was offered. Tokyo Tower was just the right amount of time, Tea Ceremony was fun and the river cruise was also fun and informative. The Imperial Palace and Asakusa stops were also very interesting and the shopping was great fun for the whole family. It was my wife and I and our 15 and 11 year old boys all who had a great time on this tour.

It was fantastic! It was a great mix of learning about Japanese culture and seeing the sights of Tokyo. We took our two small children 2 & 3 and they enjoyed it too. The food was terrific and we loved the guide. I would highly recommend to anyone on their 1st trip to Tokyo. It is a good way to check out the city.

This tour was great!! The guide spoke really good English. We learned a LOT about Tokyo from her. The tea ceremony and bonsai garden were very nice and peaceful. The BBQ lunch was great and very filling. The boat ride was very relaxing. I also liked the shopping. I would definitely recommend this tour!!

The best day tour I ever had. Comprehensive, well planned, great guide with very informative sense of humour. If you have a short time in Tokyo this is the best you can get.

This is the perfect tour if you have a short stay to hit all the top sites, or at the beginning of a long stay to get your bearings and see things you may want to revisit. Our guide spoke terrific English, and was friendly and informative. This is a great tour!

My family and I absolutely enjoyed this tour. The walking is reasonable, so we were never too tired. The places we visited were top of the Tokyo attractions. The lady guide was informative and entertaining and spoke English very well. And lunch was delicious and generous. We enjoyed every moment of it. One minor weakness is that when we first arrived to the bus station, it was a bit confusing to us, and we were nervous. Apart from that, everything else was very good. I would highly recommend any English speaking tourist for this tour.

If you have limited time in Tokyo then this is one of the best full day tours there are. It covers a lot of the must see sights and great value for money. Lunch was excellent. The guide was friendly and his English was above average. Check exchange rate before you book as we got a better deal paying before we traveled than the local rate in Yen. A word of warning. Hotel pick-up from popular hotels is included but not necessary the drop-off at the end of the tour and if you just arrived and have not experienced the public transport system yet then it can be a bit of a challenge.

This is one of the best tours you can do in Tokyo. The tour guide explained the history and landmarks of Japan in great detail while being very entertaining. The only downside to the tour was Tokyo Tower; I felt it was banal and quick. However, the rest of the tour was beautiful. The tea ceremony was meditative and unique. The lunch was absolutely delicious, and experiencing the rest of Japan on the tour was very educating and fun.
