4.00The tour is easy to navigate on the red and blue routes. Plenty of sites visited. Very good eay to see so much in one day. And can hop off and enjoy museums, Japenese flower gardens, opera house, etc. I enjoyed the commentary. It would be helpful to have the tour hours last beyond 4:30pm. Maybe til 6 on the last loop.
