This was an excellent...
This was an excellent tour. It was fast- paced and lasted all day, but you get A LOT in. We did the add-on lunch and bullet train options. The lunch was delicious. The bullet train was awesome, and this is great way to add it in to your trip, if you are staying in Tokyo, just to say you went on the bullet train. We travelled as a family of 4 (2 adults, 10 yr old, and 6 yr old) and everyone enjoyed this tour.
