Highlights
  • Ueno Park - Start off from Ueno Park (especially beautiful during cherry blossom season), where you can take that nice walk you would probably need after the flight.

  • Sensō-ji - Pay a visit to Sensō-ji, the most important temple of Tokyo, to learn a bit about Japanese religion and culture.

  • Shibuya - Experience first hand a dash into the famous crossing street, or enjoy its view from above by climbing up Magnet department store.

  • Harajuku Station - Check out the wildly out-there cosplay costumes in the streets of Harajuku, the mecca of young pop-culture generation. Or, if this not your cup of tea, ask your host to escort you to Omotesando, a more relaxed high-end district just a stone’s throw away.

Great tour for a layover. - Ayaka was great. This was a walking tour and we got to see the trains going to Tokyo with our two kids. She was very knowledgeable and helpful. We went to a small town street market in Tokyo, Akihabra for our love of Anine, play Mario kart at a video game place and eat sushi. Ayako took videos and pictures of us.

Machan Taj west end - We visited Machan Taj west end Bangalore after telephoning Mr Ramnath Rangaraj and requesting for good service . It is my wife’s birth day and I wanted to be sure we get a good service . The Hotel has an unmatched ambience and we went to Machan to check out . We are vegetarians . This time around we chose a la carte and we ordered some wine . They brought around some nice French Chardonnay that was super with the right dryness . The starters were good and egg plant special Methi Venkata was super and so was dal makhani and we got a lovely cake as well . The service was par excellent , the food taste was super and we enjoyed it very . Thank you to all of the staff there many of whom we know by sight as we are regular visitors

Great way to spend long layover in Tokyo! - I loved my tour! I had an overnight/all day layover in Narita and this was the perfect way to make the most of my short visit. My wonderful guide Izumi met me at the hotel in Narita and helped me navigate the public transit system and get into Tokyo, all while teaching me about Japanese culture and history. We were able to visit several really interesting areas during the tour and I feel like I got a taste of what Tokyo has to offer. It left me wanting to return for a longer visit in the future!
