Top Tokyo Half-day Tours

★★★★★ Amazing Experience for Any JDM Fan Our son (18) attended this tour and absolutely loved it. If you are into Japanese car culture, this is a must do experience while visiting Tokyo. The evening started at A PIT Super Autobacs where there was plenty to see for any car enthusiast. From there, the highlight was visiting Daikoku PA and experiencing the incredible car scene firsthand. He loved seeing so many unique and modified cars, cruising alongside other enthusiasts at night, and soaking in the atmosphere that makes Tokyo’s automotive culture famous around the world. One of his favorite moments was stopping at a parking garage with amazing views and getting photos with Tokyo Tower in the background, along with a stop at a 7 Eleven that offered another great perspective of the city skyline. The entire route felt like something straight out of a car enthusiast’s dream. The guide was fantastic. He was relaxed, personable, and extremely knowledgeable about Japanese cars, tuning culture, and the local car scene. The small group size of only two guests made the experience feel personal and allowed for great conversations throughout the night. The tour lasted from about 5:00 PM to 10:30 PM, and he rode in a beautiful Civic Type R, which made the experience even more memorable. Every stop was well planned, everyone involved was friendly and welcoming, and the entire evening exceeded expectations. If you are a fan of JDM cars, Japanese automotive culture, or simply want to experience Tokyo’s legendary car scene, this tour is worth every penny. Five stars all the way. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Excellent one day trip of Tokyo covering all key areas including two types of temple across two religions. The Hato Bus tour operator was very comfortable and well structured, and especially big thanks to our tour guide Mr Teru-san and the bus driver Ichitawa-san. Teru-san was very patient, polite and explained key locations and the historic context very clearly and English was easy to understand. Tokyo sky tree experience, Sensoji Temple, Meji Shrine and the Imperial Palace outer Garden was great. The short stop at the Ganman Robot and The Statue of Liberty was nice surprise item The best part of the tour was the buffet lunch at the restaurant near Haneda airport with a good spread at a superb dining location. The pick up location right behind the Tokyo station was very easy and convenient to locate. Highly recommend this one day trip of Tokyo compared to other two operators.

This was by far such a great start to our trip here in Japan! Leo was such a rockstar with everything from messaging the day before to introduce himself to changing things up when our flight got delayed so he could still take u! He was so friendly and a joy to talk to about things here in Tokyo while driving us to the hotel in the comfiest of rides! Will use again!

Small group experience with entertaining and knowledgeable guide, Nobuto. Several meal stops and a sightseeing visit around the area. I saw lots of things I would not have found on my own and the group was fun and the food delicious. Definitely recommend it!

We went on the Hakone and Mt Fuji tour and I have to say Yui was one of the best tour guides we have had in Japan! She speaks excellent English (that is a feat in Japan as many guides/tours say they speak english but they don't coherantly) she made the site's come alive with a bit of history and some fun facts about the site's. She was attentative and very fun to conversation with.

This activity definitely punched above its weight! Initially, we looked into attending a live Sumo match, but unfortunately none of the tournaments were happening while we were in town so booked this as a best alternative after reading the reviews - REALLY glad we did! For those of us who are not really knowledgeable about Sumo, this was a perfect introduction to the sport and its history. We enjoyed hearing directly from the wrestlers about their experiences in and out of the ring, the food they prepared was delicious, and the opportunity to "wrestle" them in the ring was a memory we (and our teenage nephews) never forget!

Really fun biking experience! We explored spots both well-known and hidden from most tourists. We especially enjoyed the walk to Meiji Shrine, a delicious lunch at The Frontal, and riding through busy city streets that we never would have attempted without Gako’s guidance. The route was very well planned, and Gako was thoughtful on reminding us about safety. He also answered many of our questions about Japanese culture. Highly recommend.

Our guide took us to 3 very different local places that we would not have found otherwise. They offered a variety of different types of food and drinks and we enjoyed it all. We were stuffed and you could drink pretty much all you wanted. We had two others with us and the guide (sorry I am not great with names) and they were all great company. It was a nice night out in Shibuya.
