Itinerary

  • Senso-ji Temple

    Sensoji (浅草寺, Sensōji, also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple) is a Buddhist temple located in Asakusa. It is one of Tokyo's most colorful and popular temples. The legend says that in the year 628, two brothers fished a statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy, out of the Sumida River, and even though they put the statue back into the river, it always returned to them. Consequently, Sensoji was built nearby for the goddess of Kannon. The temple was completed in 645, making it Tokyo's oldest temple.

    30 minutes

  • Asakusa (Pass By)

    This tour will allow you to explore Tokyo more efficiently in one day. Meet at your hotel, then move to anywhere you want.

  • Kappabashi Street (Kappabashi Dogugai)

    Kappabashi Street (かっぱ橋道具街, Kappabashi Dōgugai) is a shopping street between Ueno and Asakusa, which is lined with several dozens of stores selling everything needed by restaurant operators, with the exception of fresh food.

    30 minutes

  • Ameyoko Shopping Street

    Ameyoko (アメ横) is a busy market street along the Yamanote Line tracks between Okachimachi and Ueno Stations. The name "Ameyoko" is a short form for "Ameya Yokocho" (candy store alley), as candies were traditionally sold there. Alternatively, "Ame" also stands for "America", because a lot of American products used to be available there when the street was the site of a black market in the years following World War Two.

    30 minutes

  • Tsukiji Fish Market

    Tsukiji Outer Market (築地場外市場, Tsukiji Jōgai Shijō) is a district adjacent to the site of the former Tsukiji Wholesale Market. It consists of a few blocks of wholseale and retail shops, as well as restaurants crowded along narrow lanes. Here you can find fresh and processed seafood and produce alongside food-related goods such as knives.

    30 minutes

  • Edo-Tokyo Museum

    The Edo-Tokyo Museum (江戸東京博物館, Edo Tōkyō Hakubutsukan) is housed in a unique looking building in the Ryogoku district. The museum's permanent exhibition vividly illustrates the past of Tokyo (known as Edo until 1869) through its exhibits and covers many features of the capital from the Edo Period to relatively recent decades. In an interactive way, visitors are able to experience and learn about various aspects of earlier Tokyo, such as the way of life of people, Edo Period architecture, cultural heritage, political climate, commercial situation and more. Through numerous models of towns, figurines and life-sized figures, the museum makes it interesting to find out about how towns were constructed in the past.

Excellent Guide

Published on Jan, 2025

Our tour guide was amazing—polite, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind! They ensured we visited all the spots we wanted within the timeline. Highly recommended!

Fantastic guide Izumi!

Published on Jan, 2025

We did this tour with two adults and two children aged 9 and 7. We visited Asakusa, the Tsukiji Fish Market and Ginza. Izumi was a fantastic and knowledgeable guide who shared many interesting facts. The kids were particularly engaged with the fortune sheets at Senso-Ji shrine, including the animated way in which one obtains their fortune. The children also loved ‘Buddha’s Breath’, the incense stand, and the main hall of the temple itself. Shopping for half an hour in Asakusa and trying street food was also a real highlight for us and for the children. The fish market was exciting and vibrant with many places to eat; Izumi helped us find a proper sit down restaurant of high quality (many places in the market are “stand up only”, but our kids needed to sit down). Izumi also provided me with a metro map and explained about the two different ownerships of the different lines - invaluable information (for this reason I recommend doing his tour on day #1 in Tokyo if you can). The whole day was about 2km of walking, give or take, so not too much for littler legs, but we would have struggled to do this tour with a pram (many steps in the metro; having said that, I’m sure Izumi would have a pram strategy!). I hope this information helps you.

Fumiko is a great guide especially for families!

Published on Jul, 2024

Fumiko was a fantastic, friendly and highly knowledgeable tour guide. She designed a fabulous and memorable day in Tokyo based on my children’s interests, and was so flexible when they became tired and hungry. I can highly recommend her!
