It is very convenient to book tickets using Klook. You don't have to compete with everyone on the Jr website. This time I was arranged to sit in car 3, which is close to car 2 for selling things. If you want to take pictures, you can go to car 1 to take pictures of the scenery.

I booked this activity twice. During my first visit, the weather wasn’t good so the rooftop was closed. Thankfully, they offered a full refund with no hassle. On my second booking, the weather was perfect and the rooftop was open—the view from Shibuya Sky was absolutely stunning, one of the best in Tokyo! I highly recommend buying your tickets through Klook to skip the long lines and avoid missing out, as tickets can sell out quickly.

At first, I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't think that I could really book a Japanese restaurant for free with Klook. Since this restaurant only accepts phone reservations and I don't understand Japanese, I relied on Klook to help me book a seat. When we arrived at the restaurant, the owner had already prepared our dinner.

What you buy on Klook is the electronic version of the Hakone Freepass. You don't need to exchange for a physical ticket. You can use it by showing the electronic ticket display to the staff. It is convenient and fast, and it is a great choice.

After purchasing online, you can directly scan the QR code at the machine at the Japanese station to redeem it. It is very convenient. You can take the subway directly to eat delicious food and go shopping. It is very useful. Next time I come to Japan, I will continue to buy and use it.

I joined with my two kids and had a fantastic time. We initially thought riding a bike in Tokyo was a bit scary, but our guide took us safely through the streets!! The view from Tokyo Tower was so beautiful and the dolphin show was so fun!! I would recommend to do this for your night time activity when it’s not too hot.

My partner and I had an amazing time on this night bike tour! Riding through the city at night was such a cool experience! Quiet backstreets, glowing temples, and Tokyo’s famous spots all lit up. Our guide KC was great!! The whole tour felt fun, safe, and relaxed. It was a really unique way to see Tokyo and made for a super memorable night with the dolphin show and getting up to the Tokyo Tower! Highly recommend!

I made sushi for the first time here and it was delicious! the staff was so kind and helpful. they guided you every step of the way. it was right in Shibuya a few minutes from the station. I left there feeling super full. they also give you a brief history of sushi which is nice. they are a new spot that just opened a month ago so it was nice to be one of the firsts here as well! I highly recommend
