All Reviews for Tokyo Bus Tours

Great way to see all the most important sites of Tokyo in just one day. We visited Meiji Jingu Shrine and the Imperial Palace Gardens with the tour guide and had free time to explore the Sensoji Temple. Lunch was good, a buffet lunch in a nice restaurant with many local foods. Then we enjoyed a boat cruise on Tokyo Bay on a beautiful boat (go to the deck for the views, don't stay inside) before heading to Odaiba where we had 30 minutes of free time. The tour guide was very nice.

Miss Silky was a great guide. The whole family really enjoyed it.

The tour was well organised, the direction to meet them are clear and the meeting is easy to find also located near a underground and train station. Yumi our guide was very informative and fun. She gave us the right amount of information and also gave us the right amount of time for ourselves. I really enjoyed it, to be the first time in Tokyo it was the right half day tour to see the main important attraction in town. I recommend it!

an awesome experience for our kids and we really enjoy it :-)

I felt the wind like I was on a roller coaster, and it was more enjoyable than I imagined. I think the good weather contributed to that as well.

ジェットコースターに乗っているように風を感じられて想像以上に楽しく満喫出来ました。お天気が良かったのでそれも良かったことの一因だと思います。

It was a good well organized tour with a very well experienced and friendly guide

The trip was very well organised and gave a wonderfully rich and varied view of the city. The guide was helpful, clear and made the venues interesting.. Lunch was excellent, as was the Tea ceremony (if not the tea!!!) Most of the trip was a five star experience but in the afternoon far too much time was allocated to free time for shopping, which was of no interest whatsoever to the majority of our tour group. As a result the subsequent visit to the temple was rushed and came very late in a long day, when we were all extremely tired.

Interesting tour, experience guide, nice lunch, almost get to see Tokyo in one day.

Wonderful tour. Very well organized. Took us to all the important sights of the city. Enjoyed a delicious lunch. A great overview of the city.

I took the water bus from in front of the Tokyo Skytree during a weekday in Golden Week. The ride on the river was only about 15 minutes, and I think it would have been better if it had been closer to 30 minutes. I also think there should be course options like a downstream ride on the Sumida River.

ゴールデンウィーク中の平日　スカイツリー前より乗車して中川　水陸両用バスに乗って来ました。　川の中には　約15分しかないので、倍近くの30分以上がよかったと思います。
また、隅田川川下り等のコース設定もありと思います。

The tour guide is pleasant, profession, knowledgable

Driving on the Shuto Expressway felt like riding a roller coaster, and it was so much fun!! The prices are reasonable, and since it departs near Tokyo Station, I think the access is very good too.＾＾

特に首都高を走ったのがジェットコースターに乗っているかのような感覚で楽しかったです！！お値段もお手頃ですし、東京駅近くから出発なのでアクセスもとても良いと思います＾＾

It was raining a lot the entire time we were on the tour. At the Imperial Palace, there was no time to roam around because we were following the guide and the group took many pictures under the rain. At Asakusa, we were allowed to roam around on our own and strolled along the shops at our own pace. However, we had to wait for everyone at the tour to get back on the bus. Some people choose this to be their last stop and we lost time due to miscommunication. We ended up with less than 10 minutes to spend at the outer fish market.

The main highlights of this tour is the bus ride with the audio commentary and the buffet lunch. The lunch location overlooks the bridge and statue of liberty - spectacular view. There is not enough time to explore the stops provided in the tour. It is best to choose an area to explore and have the bus drop you off as your last stop. We chose Shibuya as our last stop and walked back to Shinjuku.

Other Tips:
1. This tour is good for people arriving on the first day and dont want to explore too much.
2. If you want to eat Japanese food, i would suggest not selecting the lunch. We were full from the American lunch and did not have room to eat dinner!
3. If you like to explore and walk at your own pace (whether fast or slow), then you should not select this tour.

There's lots to see and do in this Tokyo tour. My favorite was checking out the Japanese tea garden and having tea. Also riding on the boat to see the bay. It was a good day. Definitely recommend for people who want to see Tokyo but are pressed with time.

To begin with let me highlight an important aspect of the day that may have caused our experience to be inferior. The weather on the day we took the tour was dull and raining at some of the spots

The tour is ideal for people who want to do a self-guided style tour covering most important sites of Tokyo. Since this was our first time we felt that with little guidance from the guide we were basically just strolling around and checking things ourselves

The tour started off with the Imperial Palace east garden. We just strolled past some part, took pics and we're back in the bus. Along the way we passed by some of the districts and the audio guide was helpful in understanding some aspects. But definitely nothing close to having a guide who will explain things. Next we got down at Sensoji shrine but without any guidance just pretty much strolled around. Would have liked to get some history and perspective on the structure.

The outer fish market was extremely boring - it's basically like any other market. Would have loved if the tour gave a peek into the inner market though which surely is more interesting ! Then was the Odaiba cruise which was average.

The best part of the tour was the lunch. It was an American diner with a wide spread of options from Italian to Chinese to a few Turkish dishes. Oh not to forget the traditional Japanese cuisine too.

The guide we felt was a bit inexpeienced but definitely did make our journey comfortable. She was also very accommodating and flexible

Wish this tour was as awesome as the Mt. Fuji one by the same tour company

This tour was a little different, as you get free time to explore the various areas without a guide (they can give helpful tips but don't walk with you) and then meet up again. I liked this, because I could see exactly what I wanted and try lots of sweets. It was nice to be able to choose the drop-off location,very convenient. We had good weather too, lucky!

Great site very easy to use

It was amazingly well organized. I was picked up in a taxi by my guide, and then taken to the buses where the tour was to begin! All the guides spoke excellent English, and included many highlights including Tokyo tower, Imperial Palace, and an authentic Japanese lunch. Well worth it!

Very well structured, excellent tour guide full of energy and interesting info about all of the places we visited. Highly recommended!

You want fast and furious? Take this tour. You won't be disappointed! Quick pace was good for us but probably not for others. We covered some many destinations and interests. Tour guide was knowledgeable and fatherly. Felt like a older relative of mine was taking us on the tour!!

Would have liked to go into imperial gardens

Took the 1-day tour on Oct. 10, excellent tour organization, fantastic tour guide, amazing Tokyo sites, first class service, I highly recommend this 1-day tour.

3 shrines, a good lunch with a very nice view of the tokyo bay from the 12 floor. Short cruise, then visit to Odaiba 1 full day we are able to visit alot of places. hassle free tour. You must try it

Successfully made the booking purchase very smoothly. And also City Discovery provided me with the Saver discount and it works! Very happy to buy the tour with discount.

The only down side to this and other tours in Tokyo,is that you can be picked up at your chosen Hotel, but at the end of the trip you are dropped of at Tokyo Station and you have to find your own way back to your Hotel.

superb adventure, funny tour guide

Everything was OK

Although there were time lags in finalizing the booking, it was due mainly to the end vendor being in Japan and being somewhat slow to respond. City Dlscovery was always prompt in acknowledging my questions, and was very professional in keeping track of my tour issues.

Perfect....!!!
