Full description
Cruise the bustling streets of Tokyo in your own private chariot on a fun sightseeing tour of the Asakusa district by rickshaw. Admire the beautiful Asakusa Shrine next to the city's oldest temple, and experience the everyday street life en route to the famous shoe shopping district of Hanakawado. Venture inside Sumida Park, most resplendent in spring when thousands of cherry trees are in bloom. Check out quirky Tanuki-doori, and the adult theaters of the historic Rokku Ward. Take souvenir photos of Hanayashiki, the oldest amusement park in Japan. Ride down Denpoin Street, where little has changed since World War II as you make your way back to the starting point. Book the 2-hour or 3-hour tour options and you will also see the Sensoji Temple, while guests on the 3-hour option can choose a memorial gift of a special Hello Kitty doll or original T-shirt.

Buchi and his two rickshaw pals were amazing! So friendly, they waited for us even though we were ten minutes late, due to a train delay. They took us around the Temple area, stopped to point out other landmark such a Sky Tower and asked us about where we were from, took pictures, and in general were fantastic guides! Definitely recommend this company!

Our guide was so enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and funny. He took us through some back streets where we saw a real-life geisha and to the most beautiful Japanese garden behind a small temple. Even though it was 95 degree and humid, he was energetic, cheerful, made anime references to engage my teenaged son, and told funny jokes and stories. The 90 minutes went by so fast because we were having so much fun

Kazu did an amazing job as our rickshaw driver and guide. The ride was very smooth and comfortable, and his passionate energy made this tour so much fun! He was very knowledgeable about the area and shared his culture with us. He also took great pictures of us so we have them to remember the experience. Highly recommend this tour as a starting point to get recommendations for your time in Tokyo or as a layover activity to experience a lot during a short amount of time.
