What to expect
Take a peaceful escape from Tokyo’s fast-paced streets with a guided walk through Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, one of the city’s most scenic and historic green spaces. Once a feudal lord’s residence and later an Imperial garden, Shinjuku Gyoen beautifully blends Japanese, English, and French landscaping styles.
On this 2-hour tour, stroll beneath towering cherry blossoms, explore the tranquil Mother and Child Woods, and visit the serene Japanese Tea House. Each season transforms the park with its own colors — from spring blooms to autumn reds. Ideal for nature lovers, photographers, and culture seekers, this experience reveals Tokyo’s peaceful side amid its urban buzz.
Reviews
My husband and I had a wonderful time here. Our guide Momoko was very insightful about Japanese history and provided some interesting facts whilst showing us the grounds. We would highly recommend this tour, especially with Momoko who is a delight. P.S The ice cream near the entrance gate is a must try (very refreshing after the tour).
Incredibly overpriced and no tour guide was really needed. The listing said it did not include park entrance but it did, I had purchased tickets ahead of time while everyone else that booked the tour thru other avenues knew not to purchase tickets because they were included. This wasn’t the tour guides fault she was lovely but this is more of a self guided thing, the price is too high.
