I honestly wish I knew about this the first time I came to Tokyo. It saved me so much money. I still needed the suica card for JR lines, but the fact that I had unlimited access to the Tokyo Metro lines was mind blowing. Would definitely recommend and do this again and again on my next trip to Japan.

Such an adrenaline rush!! Originally scheduled day, one of our trip, but I got pushed out to the middle due to rain and Shibuya being closed for Halloween. Honestly, not mad about the delay because it’s a tough experience to top. Instructor was great at explaining things safety and equipment. She was a vibe! Great pictures. We loved our group.

Getting on the bus was very easy; presenting the code was enough.

Transportation convenience: 3-minute walk from the JR Nippori Station South Exit (Note: The South Exit does not have escalators or elevators. Those with large luggage can use the North Exit, which is not too far away).

Overall, it's super great, and you can book through Klook; another popular platform couldn't book it, so you must book the room through Klook. It's self-check-in, so you can get to your room quickly. The location is very good, close to Ueno Station, Ueno Park Plaza, the zoo, Yokocho Market, and Don Quijote; it's right near the accommodation. The room is small but not too narrow, which wasn't a problem for us! But having a refrigerator was a real surprise! So great! Highly recommended, and its TV has free access to exciting Japanese videos (if you know, you know), I really didn't expect it to be so good!
