★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 236 reviews · 4 hours - 270 minutes · from $40

A 4.5-hour morning bus tour hitting Imperial Palace views, Tokyo Tower, and Sensō-ji, with an English-speaking guide and efficient timing.

“This Tour was a great way to see Tokyo and some of its amazing landmarks. A lot of credit would go to our tour Aki, who spent time giving history behind each of the sights we went to. She also took the time for everyone to take pictures and she also offered to take pictures for the guests. I would recommend this tour for all that want to see some of the important landmarks in Tokyo.”
