Private East Tokyo Traditional Walking Tour

Whilst the west of Tokyo is known for its modern, neon-lit districts like Shinjuku and Shibuya, the eastern districts of Japan’s capital are renowned for their resplendent traditional architecture and atmosphere. This walking tour is designed as a day tour of discovery - a deep dive into the history and splendor of pre-war Tokyo, exploring the ambience and architectural majesty of areas like Shinbashi, Asakusa, and Ueno. It promises to be a superb private sightseeing experience!

Your guided walking tour will begin in awesome Asakusa for an unforgettable look at the spectacular Sensoji Temple and vibrant Nakamise-dori Street. Sensoji Temple is simply unmissable - this is Tokyo’s oldest temple and one of its most sensationally ornate!

Having navigated the exciting shopping street of Nakamise-dori, you’ll follow your guide into the awe-inspiring areas of Ueno and Okachimachi, famous for their splendid museums, incredible cherry blossom seasons, and the bustling Ameya-Yokocho Market.

Your private walking tour will then wind its way to Akihabara, renowned as a nexus of anime and gaming culture - two things Japan is well known for!

From here, you’ll move onto your final stop of the tour - the tranquil traditional garden of Koishikawa Korakuen, an absolute oasis of solace that’ll provide a sublime and iconic end to your insightful sightseeing experience.
