Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Tokyo full-day tour

Reviewed by: Gloribel

The service of the staff in Tokyo were very helpful. We used the Bus-On_Hop-Off the day 25th of December, 2015. We also used 2 of the 3 routes available. We rode through the places like Akihabara, Ropongi Hills, Ueno, Tokyo Tower, and the Skytree, among others.

We were very forutnately to have one of the stop of the bus in the hotel we stayed (the New Otani Garden Tower Hotel). For that matter it was also vey convenious.

It was great experience we will do it again.

The time was a little chilly for that time of the year, but is was worthwhile the experience of using this service.

In general we were glad we used the bus tour.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Great way to explore the city!

Reviewed by: Chew

The Hop-on Hop-off bus tickets would bring you to many of the prominent tourist places. It is a great way to explore the city and very convenient for you to drop off at your desired spots for touring. With 1-day pass, it is quite impossible to take all 3 routes unless you intend to just sit on the bus without dropping off at the numerous tourist spots. Hence, you would need careful planning of the route. I first took the bus at Tokyo Station for the Odaiba course, dropping off at Venus Port (since I did not manage to go there when I went to Aqua City and Diver City the previous day) before taking the bus again one hour later back to Tokyo Station. After that, I took the bus again to go to Roppongi Hills. It depends on which place you want to go and with careful planning you will be enjoying the bus tour very much.

When we took it the intended rope way was closed due to strong winds, but we saw another rope way is running. they refunded the portion of the rope way entrance fee.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Great experience on viewing tokyo

Reviewed by: Marshall

The buses condition is great and clean. The tour is precise in timing however the schedule is not that frequent (one hour plus). This is open top seating bus only and it gets pretty cold during the winter when the bus moves quickly. The coverage of the tour is great however the initial boarding/getting the pass is only in couple places, cant be done on every stop. The tour guides are nice and helpful, it is no hassle on bringing infant and stroller. The pass is Valid for 24 hours from the initial pass exchange, So you can continue using it the next day when you start late on the day. The tour is running until pretty late too. Good price for money. Recommended.

スカイホップバス東京 乗り放題バスチケット 1日券・2日券<乗り降り自由>

It's fun no matter how many times you ride it. 何回乗っても楽しい

Reviewed by: Hiroshi

This was my second time using the service. During my first visit, I used it for sightseeing on a single route, and it was quite fulfilling as I was able to efficiently visit various attractions.

This time, my purpose was shopping at multiple shopping malls, so I used the Odaiba course again to shop in Odaiba and Toyosu. The bus stops right in front of the shopping malls, making it very convenient for shopping!

A significant difference from my last experience was that we crossed the Rainbow Bridge on the highway, which offered great views, and although the wind was a bit chilly, it felt nice.

The bus users were mostly foreigners and Japanese people who seemed to be from other regions. Most of the users appeared to enjoy taking photos and engaging in lively conversations as we passed by tourist spots.

In the future, when local friends or family come to Tokyo, I will use this service again. I would also like to try the Asakusa and Skytree route, as well as the Roppongi route.

今回の利用は2回目で、前回利用した時は1ルートだけ観光目的で利用しました。その際は観光名所を効率良くまわれて、かなり充実しました。

今回は複数のショッピングモールで買い物が目的だったため、前回と同様にお台場コースを利用してお台場と豊洲で買い物をしました。このバスはショッピングモールの前にバス停があるため買い物にもとても便利です!

前回と大きく違ったのは、レインボーブリッジを高速道路で通ったため、景色が良かったのと、少し風が冷たかったですが、気持ち良かったです。

バスの利用者は、外国の方が大半と地方から来たと思われる日本人の方が利用されていました。
利用者のほとんどが、観光名所を通ると楽しそうに写真撮影したり、会話がかなり盛り上げっていました。

今後、地元の友人や家族が東京に来た際は、また利用します。
その際は、浅草やスカイツリールートや六本木ルートも回ってみたいと思います。

We enjoyed this tour although it was a lot of time on the bus compared to the time off the bus. The guide was quite good although she could provide more information about the region to make the time on the bus pass faster. The luncheon provided was excellent and we really liked the Hakone region.

Best Tour of Tokyo!

Reviewed by: Linh Nguyen

We really enjoy the Hop On Hop Off bus tour of Toyko. The best part was the checkin. It was easy and the attendant gave us the tickets within 2 minutes. While on the bus, the best part is the top deck. We had great weather 2 weeks ago so this was an extra plus. The top deck also lets you take great pictures so we were excited being on top. We were given earphones which we had forgotten so this was just incredible service. The stops are great. They were easy to find and maps were easy to read. The schedules were also easy to read and we were able to plan accordingly. All in all, we had a great time, used the bus to see everything, and also get around town conveniently.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

English language recording broke after the first stop.

Reviewed by: Meh

I am very experienced with hop-on, hop-off tours, having taken them in North America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.

The English language recording broke after the first stop. I don't think we missed much, as the recording mostly just explained some facts about the highway when it was working.

The Ueno and Akihabara stops are inconveniently located as they drop you several blocks from the main attractions (this might be true for all tour buses stopping at these locations).

There are three separate bus tour routes and they really should be combined into 1-2 routes. The buses go four to five stops on a given line, then the bus doubles back.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Best Tour around Tokyo - Incredible Value

Reviewed by: M Shoaib Sheikh

We recently had the chance to stop by in Tokyo on our recent trip to Asia.We were really tight on schedule provided we had 21 hours layover.But then we were suggested by our Hilton Tokyo concierge to take advantage of this fantastic skybus hop on and hop off service.

There are 3 courses you can opt for all in one ticket for nearly 22 USD/person which gives you excellent value for money as taxi travel in Tokyo is VERY expensive and it is very very organised and operates in very timely fashion along with very detailed history of all the important buildings and monuments we passed by.
We took all three courses starting with Odaiba course and followed by Roppongi-Tokyo course.You can hop on and hop off as many times as you like.One of the best thing is you can hop on to next course bus at same Marunouchi Mitsubishi building so as soon as you end up with one course, you can hop on to next course bus within 10~15 mins and it gives you just enough time to use restrooms and buy something from the shops close by.The buses were WIFI equipped, neat and clean with comfortable seating.We travelled with a toddler and we had enough legroom to give him some space to flex his muscles :).Most importantly, the buses have glass roof so if you can look through them or take pictures if you aren't able to see through windows.

If you are taking train to reach Mitsubishi building, drop off at Tokyo station and you are just 2~3 minutes walk away.You can also grab a bite from Manhattan grill which is pretty close to Mitsubishi building.Without skybus tours we would not have been able to see so much of Tokyo in short span of time.

Tokyo Hop-On Hop-Off Bus

Reviewed by: Nanik Lakhani

We are Canadians from Toronto and first time visitors to Japan. We had a total 1 week's time to visit 3 cities - Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto. We had planned to spend 3 days in Tokyo and wanted to cover the most tourist places. Japan has a very advanced and amazing railway system, especially in Tokyo with multiple local train lines meshing the city providing excellent connectivity. We decided to take a day pass on JR Rail and see the important places ourselves. We took 1-day pass and could see only 2-3 places and were tired by end of the day due to long walks. Then we found out on the net about Tokyo Hop-On Hop-off bus for 1 or 2 days. We took 1 day pass on the Hop-On Hop-off bus and were pleasantly surprised that we could cover most major visiting spots within a day. With guided tour and convenience of hop-on hop-off it was a lot more relaxing as there was minimum walking. There was flexibility to get on to the next bus at scheduled time plus we were able to see most of Tokyo by taking all 3 Hop-On Hop-off bus lines. Staff was very courteous and helpful. It was raining for some part of the day and we were provided raincoats. We enjoyed the Hop-On Hop-off bus and we will recommend other friends to take this tour for quick tour of Tokyo.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Great deal

Reviewed by: Reza

I strongly recommend using Hop-On Hop-Off buses as it is really a great deal. We have seen several places in Tokyo beforehand. However, by using these special buses we have a general sense of view of the Tokyo. My suggestion to the tourists is to have a plan to use the 2 days trip. By paying a quite reasonable price than 1 day you are able to have a trip over the whole thee lines including Green, Purple and also Blue. Be aware the buses for all three routes are red and you should ask the staff which one is which otherwise you need to wait for at least 1 hour for the next bus. you should take the time table and try to choose the lines in a way that you are able to minimum the waiting time in between. On the first day you can sit on the bust and having a look around if there is any places you would like to stop by you should make a note for yourself including which line it is and what station it is then on the next day you can just stop on the favorite places you have chosen. As a last point you are better off getting off the Tokyo station as it is pretty close to the Mitsubishi station compare to the other stations. Hope you all enjoy the trip!

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Fun but mixed

Reviewed by: Sarah Perl

This was mostly a good experience. But there were some areas that needed improvement.

The audio was always "off." The announcements of the audio typically came after we had passed a location -- the audio was late or the driver was fast. In the beginning there was no info on the first 10 minutes of the trip at all. The ear plugs need to be up-graded. The style you have is very uncomfortable for some people, including me. Finally, the audio box for one of us (we were two travelers) was not working -- the volume could not go sufficiently high to hear.

There was an issue with whether the bus was stopping or not at the marked locations. For example, we would have wanted to get off at Asakusa to visit the market and the temple, but the bus did not stop there at all. The brochure indicated that the bus should have stopped there. But there was no announcement or offer to stop, and the bus did not stop. That was very disappointing to us.

We hope this info is useful and we appreciate the two-for-one offer in exchange for us providing this review. Please process the credit at your earliest convenience. Also, the ponchos were great and the woman at the Mitsubishi box office was super helpful.

Sky hop Tokyo, hop on hop off

Reviewed by: Spargo-san

Great 24 hour deal, routes are timed nicely so you can finish on, and join the next, good spread of sites and activities, staff very friendly and knowledgeable, buses in nice condition.

Good thing is that you get 24 hours from the time of your purchase / arrival to get your ticket, so if you show up at 2pm (like I did, because you had activities the night before that prevented an early start) then your 24 hours starts at 2pm and ends at 2pm the following day, nice idea :)

I would recommend the saving the bridge route until the evening (or just go through it again in the evening) as the lights on the bridges at night are awesome and well worth seeing!

Mt. Fuji and Aokigahara Adventure Tour from Tokyo

Wonderful Experience!

Reviewed by: TimmyJimmy

This tour was awesome. They picked us up at the hotel and after a couple more stops, we had a brief stop at a bus station where another bus took us up to Mt. Fuji. We speak almost no Japanese, but the tour guides we had spoke English well and were able to answer any questions we had.

It takes a while to get to Mt. Fuji from Tokyo (like 2.5 hours), but the tour guide made things interesting by talking about the history of Japan and Mt. Fuji. Would have been nice to have more time at the shops on Mt. Fuji, but I have to give them credit for keeping that many people (from all around the world) on schedule.

After a traditional Japanese lunch (included), we headed out with another tour guide for the forest/cave tour. At this point we split from the original group and joined a smaller group for caving. Again, the tour guide spoke English very well and was super nice/informative.

We would have liked to have seen more of Aokigahara Forest, but it was definitely cool. Super quiet and kind of spooky but more beautiful than anything else. The cave tour was also really neat. It was short but also my first time in a cave so it didn't bother me.

After a full day of exploring, we were given bus tickets and waited for a bus. The bus arrived n time but the ride was long and delayed due to traffic. The bus was not uncomfortable, but if you have a JR Rail pass, I would recommend finding a Shinkansen back to Tokyo to avoid traffic. Everything else on the tour was great!

It was my daughter's first time in Tokyo as a sixth grader, so we decided to visit various well-known places that we had heard about! Although it was a bit hectic, we were able to cover all three courses in one full day, and we were very satisfied. As mentioned in the experiences, most of the guests were from abroad, which was nice as well. We had a bit of trouble figuring out the Asakusa station after taking the train from Skytree to Asakusa, but that's also a memorable experience! Thank you very much! (^^)!

Very pleasant

Reviewed by: Colby

The day tour to Mt. Fuji was a nice change from the big city. We stayed in a hotel that was not on the pick up list in Tokyo but took the subway over to a hotel that was. The tour company then gave us a taxi to meet up with the rest of the group at the bus. Our tour guide was the best! She spoke very good English and her voice was so pleasant. Overall we were pleased with the tour. Unfortunately we went on the only day out of the week that it was cloudy and misty. So we went to Mt. Fuji but did not get to see Mt. Fuji! We took the bullet train back to Tokyo and that was fairly easy to navigate as well. Really wish we would have done the 2 day tour package but it was completely booked!
