What to expect

Visit Asakusa - the most popular tourist destination in Tokyo and make sure that you experience authentic Asakusa like a local.

Skip the over-priced, touristy restaurants around the sightseeing area and find one that is authentic, local, and fun. This tour was created to help you navigate through "the real Asakusa".

Follow your local guide who knows the area well and make your experience 10 times more enjoyable. During the tour, you won't only visit the main spots in Asakusa but you'll also take a break in the Japanese style at a teahouse where you can try matcha (powdered green tea), and dine at a local restaurant where you can make your own monjayaki and okonomiyaki (a type of traditional pancakes).

Prepare yourself to see and experience Japanese culture through all five senses. Learn more about the important traditions of Japanese temples, local lifestyles, what to buy, and what to eat in Asakusa.
