This was a great tour. Nori, our guide, was an absolute sweet heart to be around. She was very knowledgeable and gave everyone on the tour enough time to really enjoy the sites!

Highly recommended. Haru our guide was excellent always explaining everything, even during the bus trip. She was always worried about the participants even to take pictures. The visits to the temples were quite calm. the visit to the imperial garden and cruise were fantastic. The visit at the end of the day in Osaiba was one of the best places to take pictures of the city. the trip on the bus was safe and comfortable.

Polecam, zwłaszcza w pierwszym dniu zwiedzania Tokio.
Review by: Alex M, May 2018
Very good way to get your bearings especially if you've never been to Tokyo before we hadn't. Good value for the money. I'm sure the do-it-yourselfers will quibble over some details, but my family and I had a great time and were very glad we did it. Having said that, the next time we go to Tokyo there are other ways to explore in greater depth, but what we had was a fine introductory course.

This tour was an amazing experience and a 'must do'. Our guide, Junko san, was excellent. She was very knowledgeable, funny and accommodating. The Imperial Palace, shrine and temple we visited were beautiful. We enjoyed our lunch, however, we wished that we had a Japanese meal instead of Western food. There's a lot of walking so be prepared. Overall, this tour was well worth it and highly recommended.

A long day but get to see quite a bit. Lunch was not the best.
Review by: Yasser A, April 2018
The tour is great for people don't have a lot of time staying in Tokyo and need to see most of it. But if you have the time and you would like to roam around the locations I would reconsider taking this tour. Our guide was great and was explaining everything you need to know. _br/_ The only thing I didn't like is the time in the Imperial Palace. We had only 30 min and we just saw some of its buildings from the outside and took some photos. we didn't go to the gardens around it as there was a long queue because of the cherry blossom season probably

Very informative tour by a knowledgeable guide. Yuko-san even taught us some Japanese words in a very funny way, with stories. History pearls were also appreciated. She did an excellent job explaining the itinerary and warning us in advance about various stops, availability of washrooms etc.

We like taking this type of tour first day in a new city to help orientate ourselves and catch a few of the key cites. It was a good tour with a fantastic guide. My only criticism is that there was a lot of time on the bus going back and forth and I am sure the route could be better mapped out. For instance, we were picked up at Shinjuku and transferred to the other side of the city, only to come back to Shinjuku for the first attraction. An hour or so in a bus that wasnt needed if those on the western side of town were transferred to the first sight seeing stop or close by.

We had limited time in Tokyo and a free day so booked an all day city tour. This tour in particular because we could be collected from our hotel. It was a very busy and enjoyable day. Only 14 of us. Nobu, our Japanese guide, was very organised and knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. Lunch was not a buffet as described but a pleasant meal nevertheless with the choice of the main course being made before we left the bus station.....chicken, fish or vegetable. There was no geisha dancing for us. The toilet outside the restaurant on the 23rd floor was decidedly dirty with only one western toilet and a squat toilet available although I understand there were other facilities on the 4th floor. We were delivered to Tokyo Station at the end of the day. Thanks to the instructions from Nobu we were able to buy tickets and find our way home, even changing trains.

Fuji-san was a great guide for this mass-market tour...it's always tough with a bus load of people doing the 360 on any large city with such a rich history and context as Tokyo....Fuji-san was able to do this quite well and get us on time through the major highlights of Tokyo and give us ideas for further exploration throughout this megaplex. We enjoyed the hotel pickup which was a feeder bus to the larger bus terminal. The in processing and such at the bus terminal was a bit of organized chaos but it works Japanese style. They have nice bathrooms and plenty of the obligatory vending machines to get you ready for the tour. The highlight was of course the cherry blossoms all over town and the temple with the side markets especially the street food with all sorts of delicious delights for the five senses and most of them on a stick! Octopus, calamari, fish, etc were quite delicious. All in all, a great overview tour that is necessary to quickly get the overview of Tokyo and explore more!

Great tour, we covered pretty much everything important in Tokyo. Tour guide was also excellent and ensured we were entertained throughout the tour.
Review by: Michael S, April 2018
I took this tour after taking the other day tour featuring the tea ceremony, Tokyo Tower, etc. If asked which one is better, I would pick the other tour. The Tokyo Bay Cruise was ok, but not nearly as dramatic or as fun as Sumida River Cruise, the Asakusa Kannon Temple was a repeat, so, no difference. The Meiji Shrine was excellent and the tour guide's explanations of what was happening including several weddings that day was very good. However, lunch overlooking Tokyo Bay was a disappointment.

Love Tokyo, love Japan...and a great tour!
Review by: silk416, April 2018
Our guide was very knowledgeable, efficient and helpful. The tour itself tried to cram far too much in to the day. There was too little time at some of the stops to fully explore the surroundings, but as a taster they were fine. The included Western style lunch was very disappointing. The soup was tasteless, the main course was cold, not particularly appertising and consisted of a small flattened chicken thigh, two small carrot batons, a tiny floret of broccoli and two small potato chips. The less said about the dessert the better. Overall we were quite disappointed.
