TOKYO AFTERNOON Half-Day Bus Tour

Splendid of half day tour of Tokyo's highlights

The tour covered the key highlights of the eastern part of downtown Tokyo, and our guide (Naomi-san) was fantastic! While it was one of the hottest days this summer, most of the time was spent in a/c bus and at Tokyo Tower (a/c). Though it was a painfully hot day, we also enjoyed the stroll around Asakusa! Wish we had more time there:)

Good tour for a first overview

The tour was pleasant to get a first impression of important sights. If you want to spend a little more time, you should then go back to the spots in the early morning. Nevertheless, very nice and pleasant to be on the road in an air-conditioned bus and to get good background information. Clear recommendation.
