Enjoy an efficient, one-day tour of Tokyo accompanied by a government-licensed and experienced English Speaking guide! Your guide will introduce both modern and traditional aspects of this dynamic city.

Due to the enormous size of Tokyo, one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, a one-day tour would probably focus on one small area, which would still leave you in awe at the scale of the city. Tokyo is where you can experience both modern and traditional, and your experienced private guide will help you efficiently enjoy a full day in this dynamic Japanese capital. Let us know what you would like to experience, and we will customize a six-hour tour that's best for you!

Note*1: Please select your must-see spots from a list in the tour information to create your customized itinerary.

For a private vehicle, please book Private Tokyo Tour with Government Licensed Guide & Vehicle (Max 7 persons) or or Tokyo 6hr Private Tour with Licensed Guide & Bus (Max 15 Pax)

What To Expect

1

Asakusa

Asakusa (浅草) is the center of Tokyo's shitamachi (literally "low city"), one of Tokyo's districts, where an atmosphere of the Tokyo of past decades survives. Asakusa's main attraction is Sensoji, a very popular Buddhist temple, built in the 7th century. The temple is approached via the Nakamise, a shopping street that has been providing temple visitors with a variety of traditional, local snacks and tourist souvenirs for centuries.

Imperial Palace

**This tour does not include access to the inside of the Imperial Palace** The current Imperial Palace is located on the former site of Edo Castle, a large park area surrounded by moats and massive stone walls in the center of Tokyo, a short walk from Tokyo Station. It is the residence of Japan's Imperial Family. Edo Castle used to be the seat of the Tokugawa shogun who ruled Japan from 1603 until 1867. In 1868, the shogunate was overthrown, and the country's capital and imperial residence were moved from Kyoto to Tokyo. In 1888 construction of a new Imperial Palace was completed. The palace was once destroyed during World War Two, and rebuilt in the same style, afterwards.

    Our trip with Bruce was amazing! We had a list of things we had not experienced in Tokyo on our previous visit, and he created a wonderful itinerary, taught us how to use public transport, and ended with the best ever sushi lunch. His knowledge and sense of humour made the day over and above our expectations..

    We had the absolute pleasure of having Lance as our guide during our time in Tokyo, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the very beginning, it was clear how much care and effort he put into planning our experience. He had done deep research on every destination we visited, and he shared such interesting and insightful tidbits that brought each place to life in a meaningful way. What stood out most was Lance’s deep respect for Japanese culture and his thoughtful approach to helping us understand local customs and traditions. He created a space where we felt comfortable asking questions and encouraged us to connect more authentically with the places we visited. Lance wasn’t just knowledgeable—he was kind, professional, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a rich and memorable experience. Anyone would be truly lucky to have Lance as their guide. Thank you for making our trip to Tokyo so special!

    Our guide was very knowledgeable and had a very positive attitude. She taught us a lot about Japanese history and customs. She took us everywhere we wanted to go and knew what else to fit in. It was great taking the train all over Tokyo.
