Highlights
  • Tsukiji Fish Market - Tsukiji Outer Market is Japan’s “Food Town,” where one can encounter all kinds of traditional Japanese foods. A mixture of wholesale and retail shops, along with numerous restaurants, line the streets, and new culinary trends.

  • Senso-ji Temple - Along with being mostly visited temple of Japan with over 20 million of visitors, this ancient 1400 years old buddhist temple is an iconic symbol of Tokyo.

  • Imperial Palace - The Imperial Palace has served as the residential place of the successive Emperors since 1868. It contains the Imperial Residence and the Imperial Palace Complex.

  • Tokyo Skytree - Tokyo Skytree is the highest freestanding tower in the world with 634 meters height. Offering you spectacular views out over Tokyo, there are two enclosed decks located at heights of 350 and 450 meters respectively, making them the highest observation decks in Japan.

  • Tokyo Tower - A symbol of post war recovery in the center of the city. Built in 1958, and standing 333 meters tall, Tokyo Tower serves as a symbol of Tokyo’s rebirth after World War II. At the time of its completion, it was the tallest tower in the world, surpassing even its inspiration, the Eiffel Tower.

  • Ginza - Ginza is a fancy, upmarket shopping district and it won’t let you forget it. You’re far more likely to find internationally-recognized luxury brand clothes and accessories here than a charming Mom-and-Pop shop or hip independent coffee store. Originally, it was part of the downtown area of Edo (olden days Tokyo), and still has a bit of that old school charm. But the area was always somewhat posh. It was named after a silver mint that used to be there after all.

  • Takeshita Street - The 350-meter Takeshita-dori Street is the hub for Japanese pop culture and also known for wacky, youth-driven shops selling colorful and crazy clothes and accessories. It’s also a paradise for sweets-lovers - don’t miss the fluffy, sugary crepes. There are also several boutiques that specialize in edgy grunge and goth fashion.

  • Meiji Jingu Shrine - Located in the heart of Tokyo in a wooded area of over 100,000 trees, Meiji-Jingu is one of Japan’s most famous shrines and is dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken. The atmosphere inside the shrine is very peaceful and spiritual.

  • Odaiba District - A man made island located in Tokyo Bay, Odaiba is a district with excellent shopping and amusement facilities that also boasts beautiful parks and a charming coastline. However, as it is roughly 40 minutes drive from the last destination, the driver will take you there if only left enough time.

  • Shibuya Crossing - Shibuya Crossing is the busiest intersection in the world. It is famous for its crowded and colorful district, packed to the gills with shops, restaurants, clubs and avid shoppers.

  • Omotesando - Omotesando is known as one of leading cafe areas in Tokyo. Omotesando is very famous that even became the first place to open the shop in Japan when overseas coffee chains consider tapping on Japanese market. It is also the place you will encounter the latest trend of Japan. there you will find peculiar merchandise which will never be found in other areas. There should be plenty of Japanese subculture clothing and goods that are also attracting foreign visitors.

Best experience ever! 👍 - As a family we have been on many guided/private tours and we have to say that our tour of Tokyo was the most enjoyable and expertly done than any of the others. Our guide/driver Mr. Utah was fun, considerate and very knowledgeable and I would recommend no one else over him. My family loved him, he listened to changes we had in our plans, and he knew right where to go to maximize our time and views. We walked away feeling great, much more knowledgeable about the city, and explored it together with someone we can now call a friend. We highly recommend Mr Utah! Thank you so much for everything! ☺️🙏🏻

Great tour of Tokyo with “ Utah.” He was very nice and flexible. Completely customized our tour for whatever we wanted. - This was the best way to travel. Utah was an excellent guide and was very flexible. If we drove past something that was interesting, we was happy to stop the car and let us go to see it. This trip with Utah was very customizable and he was very willing to extend it if needed. Utah was also very knowledgeable about Japan. We had a perfect day with him and the drive was also very comfortable.

Abe Best Tour Tokyo - Abe was our guide. He was so professional, knowledgeable, reliable and a pleasure to be around. He created a perfect itinerary for us and was very patient when my family of 5 was wandering around a certain area separately. Somehow he always kept track of each of us and gathered us together to go to the next location. We really had such an amazing time. We would recommend this tour of Tokyo and especially Abe to everyone! Also he was Russian speaking so that was a huge plus for our family. And his English was perfect too.

So many new things I learned during my three-night stay and would do it again especially want to see the countryside. - Being able to go around Tokyo and nearby places by a private car and an English speaking driver who was friendly and relatively knowledgeable about the history of Japan, including its religion, government, culture among others and may I just add that the standard of living in Tokyo is high.
