Best of Tokyo: Guided Full Day City Tour with Lunch

Discover Tokyo’s past, present, and future on a full-day guided tour. Visit Asakusa, Yanaka, the Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine, and Harajuku, and enjoy a local lunch experience.
Begin your day with a comfortable hotel pickup and head straight into the historic heart of the city. The tour opens in Asakusa, where Tokyo’s old-world roots come alive around the iconic Senso-ji Temple. Wander through traditional streets, incense-filled courtyards, and lively lanes that reflect the spirit of Edo-era Tokyo.

From here, step into the quieter charm of the Yanaka neighborhood, one of the few areas that survived wartime destruction. With its narrow lanes, old wooden houses, small temples, and local shops, Yanaka offers a rare glimpse into Tokyo’s preserved old-town atmosphere and everyday local life.

Midday, your guide will introduce you to a local lunch experience, recommending authentic eateries loved by residents. Whether it’s a comforting bowl of ramen, a seasonal bento, or a neighborhood specialty, this stop adds a genuine “eat like a local” touch to the day.

After lunch, continue to the Imperial Palace Outer Grounds, where wide promenades, stone walls, and moats create a calm contrast to the surrounding business districts. Learn about Japan’s imperial history while enjoying views of one of the city’s most significant landmarks.

The journey then shifts toward Tokyo’s creative and spiritual balance with a visit to Meiji Shrine, set within a tranquil forest, followed by a walk through Harajuku’s backstreets. Away from the main crowds, discover youth culture, independent boutiques, and the city’s ever-evolving fashion scene.

End the day in Shibuya, where Tokyo’s modern energy is on full display. Experience the famous crossing, towering screens, and vibrant streets that symbolize the city’s fast-paced, contemporary lifestyle.
