Reviews
The Skytree was the highlight: in clear weather, we had a great view over all of Tokyo. The guide was well-prepared and managed the time very well. Gladly again.
The view from the Skytree is truly amazing, and the tour guide even taught us from which angle we could capture both the Sumida River and Senso-ji Temple in the same shot. The whole itinerary went very smoothly, the timing was just right, highly recommended!
Fantastic tour of Asakusa! The guide explained the history of the Senso-ji temple with a lot of passion and even gave us tips on shops and food. Small group and very well organized. Highly recommended.
A very enjoyable walk through Asakusa. The guide shared enthusiastic stories about Senso-ji and the history of Edo, and we also got great recommendations for snacks along Nakamise. Well-organized and just the right length. Highly recommended!
The Skytree views were out of this world, we went up in the late afternoon and got both daylight and the city lights. Guide was knowledgeable and kept the group together nicely. Smooth and hassle-free, highly recommended.
Finally, we went up to the Tokyo Skytree, and on a clear day, you can actually see Mount Fuji in the distance! The tour guide timed everything so well in advance that we didn't have to wait in line for too long. Walking over from Asakusa and then taking in the panoramic view of Tokyo was truly an amazing experience, offering incredible value for the price.
The tour started in Asakusa and finished at the Tokyo Skytree, and the itinerary was very smooth. The view from the Skytree observation deck was amazing, and the tour guide even went out of their way to tell us which direction had the best photo spots. Overall, it offers great value for the price and is highly recommended for first-time visitors to Tokyo.
We loved going up the Tokyo Skytree after exploring Asakusa. The view was incredible even though it was a bit hazy. The wait for the elevator was longer than expected, but our guide kept us entertained. Good tour overall.
Nice introduction to Asakusa's history. The guide explained Senso-ji and the Kaminarimon story clearly, and Nakamise street was lively. Only downside was the crowd, which made it hard to hear at some stops. Still a good way to spend a morning, I'd say worth the price.
The tour guide was amazing! The history of Senso-ji Temple and the story of the Kaminarimon lantern were told so vividly, and they even took us to try delicious minced meat cutlets. The itinerary was relaxed and not rushed, making it truly ideal for first-time visitors to Tokyo.
