Itinerary
We will take the subway from the nearest station to your hotel to reach Meiji Shrine. Completed in 1920, this shrine is a tribute to Emperor Meiji, a key figure in modern Japan during the 19th century. Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the serene forest surroundings and appreciate the distinctive Shinto-style architecture.
The journey from Meiji Shrine to Shibuya Station is a short one, taking only a few minutes. Situated in the heart of Shibuya City, one of the 23 wards in Tokyo Metropolis, the station is known for its iconic pedestrian crossing. Just outside Shibuya Station, you'll have the opportunity to capture a photo of the world-famous Hachiko dog monument!
Tokyo Tower, constructed in 1958, once held the title of the world's tallest structure. We go up to a observation deck, situated at a height of 150 meters, using a high-speed elevator. From the Main Deck, enjoy a breathtaking panorama of Tokyo that showcases the city's remarkable views.
Although Tsukiji Fish Market for wholesaler was relocated to Toyosu in 2018, Tsukiji "Outer Market" remain in the same place. It always draws many international tourists who look for fresh seafood and sushi. You can have a lunch break here. Your guide suggest the best place for lunch to you.
For a taste of traditional Japan, Asakusa is the ideal destination. This lively and bustling town is brimming with shops that specialize in traditional crafts, souvenirs, street foods, and more. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere as you explore the rich cultural offerings of Asakusa.
Sensoji Temple is one of the oldest and largest Buddhist temples in Tokyo, with a history dating back to its establishment in 628.

Asako was our guide. She was and excellent guide. I would highly recommend her. Asako was very patient. Aside from our scheduled itinerary, she found out our interests and made some detours if time allowed. I will definitely request Asako should I decide on another Tokyo tour.

Your guide, Yoshi is also delighted to hear your comment. Thank you again for choosing our tour. We hope you come back to Japan some time in the near future.
We really enjoyed the private tour with our host. The hotel meeting point was well organised, and our tour guide gave a summary of the day before heading off. In the 5+ hours we did visit all the locations, but importantly the tour guide gave tips along the way. Even showed us how to buy train tickets via the machines. It was a great way to see parts of Tokyo that we may not have considered. Thank you
