Tokyo 1-Day Bus Tour to Tokyo Tower & Asakusa with Tea Ceremony & Sumida Cruise

Reviewed by: Carolyn

Early pickup from hotel but very efficient at bus interchange. However tour info did not state that you were not transported back to your hotel - so I used the metro and thought I would never get out of my station and back to my hotel.
Not enough time at Tokyo Tower.
Had the best meal of my 10 days in Japan - beautifully cooked and served using the hot stone. Tour guide very helpful and good english. Nice tour bus.

I exchanged my points for a bus ticket since Alan's points were about to expire. It was valid for 24 hours, covered three routes, and included a live guide, which was very good.

I live in the city, but I was able to enjoy an experience that I rarely get to have! 都内在住だけどなかなかできない体験を楽しめました!

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I wanted to ride the red buses I saw around the city, so I signed up. I thought the one-day pass was only valid for the day it was exchanged, but it’s actually valid for 24 hours from the time of exchange. I was surprised it was valid until the next day (though I didn’t use it…).

I took two routes: one around the Tokyo Skytree and another around Odaiba. Each route takes about an hour. I was able to get off at the Skytree and stroll around Solamachi.

What surprised me was that the bus runs on the highway. Riding an open-top bus on the Shuto Expressway and crossing the Rainbow Bridge is a rare experience, and I can recommend this ticket just for that.

However, even in late March, it starts to get cold after around 4 PM. I think late April would be a better season. The guide's explanations were enjoyable, but sometimes their voice was too soft or they spoke too quickly, which was a downside.

Also, some bus stops were hard to find and in slightly awkward locations. For example, at Senso-ji Temple, I worried about whether I could reach it after being dropped off there! There might be regulations affecting this, but I hope improvements can be made.

Still, I think it’s fun for even those living in the city to ride just for a bit of a change!

街中で見かける赤いバスに乗ってみたくなって申し込み。
1日券って引き替えた日のみかと思ったら、引き替えた時間から24時間なんですね。次の日まで有効でびっくり。(使いませんでしたけど…)
スカイツリーをまわるコースとお台場をまわるコースの2つに乗車。1コースおおむね1時間程度ですね。途中でスカイツリー下車をしてソラマチをぶらぶらしたりもできました。
びっくりなのが高速道路を走ること。オープンバスで首都高を走ったり、レインボーブリッジを駆け抜けたりは滅多にできない体験で、これだけでもこのチケットおすすめできちゃいます。
ただ、3月下旬でも16時過ぎたくらいから寒くなってきます。4月下旬からが良いシーズンかな?
ガイドさんの解説も楽しいけど、声が小さかったり早口すぎたりするのがマイナス。
あと、バス停がわかりにくい&ちょっと場所が微妙なところがちらほら。浅草寺なんか、あそこで下ろされてたどり着けるのかな!?と入らない心配をしてしまいました。規制などもあるかもしれないけど、改善されると良いですね。
でも、都内在住者でもちょっと話題程度に乗ってみるのも楽しいと思いますよ!

The scenery is beautiful and it's a great tour, but since it was cold in February, I think those who are not good with the cold should choose a different time.

景色はよくとてもよいツアーですが、2月の寒い時期でしたので、寒さが苦手な方は時期をえれんだほうがよいかと思います。

Usually I am not a fan of organized tours but City Discovery really provides excellent service. I had very good experience in Australia. the tours I took in Japan were of the highest standard. Panoramic Tokyo is a must it takes you to the key places you get an excellent feel of the city from traditional places to the new Odaiba district. Excellent lunch in a restaurant on the top floor of a hotel with sweeping view of the Tokyo bay and gardens. Just do it !

My 3-year-old son was very satisfied!!! 3歳男児も大満足!!!

Reviewed by: 江戸っ子38

Since it was a one-day pass, I took two rides: from Marunouchi to Skytree at 10:20 and from Marunouchi to Odaiba at 17:30. Sitting in the front row, even a regular curve feels thrilling like a roller coaster. Whether you're in the middle or the back, you can see the scenery in 360 degrees. It's very impressive! I highly recommend it for small children. For me as an adult, the bus guide's stories were full of interesting insights and very entertaining.

一日乗車券だったので、10:20発 丸の内→スカイツリー、17:30発 丸の内→お台場の2つに乗りました。最前列に乗ると、普通のカーブでもジェットコースターのようなドキドキがあります。真ん中でも後ろでも、360度に景色が見えます。非常に迫力があります!小さな子供に非常にお勧めです。大人の私には、バスガイドさんのお話が薀蓄に溢れて、大変おもしろかった。

If you don't have a lot of time in Tokyo, this is a good tour to do. If you are going on to Kyoto as we were I wouldn't bother going to the Shrines.
Not a long of time in many of the places, 15-20 mins in both places, hard when you have a toddler. Guide was excellent though!

The Full Day Grand Tokyo Tour was a nice and relaxing way to view the cities highlights and gardens. Nagi and Jun were excellent guides throughout the day and even taught us a few greetings and how to count in Japanese. I would recommend this tour as a good way to hit the major highlights of Japan.

It might be good for those who have time, but... 時間がある人には良いかもしれないが・・・

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

This bus has limited access areas, so it might be convenient if it matches the place you want to go, but the frequency is low, making it difficult to use multiple times in a day. It seemed like they didn't understand when I showed the voucher from Alan Wan, and I was made to wait. There appeared to be two types of buses: one that only allows boarding on the second floor, where you listen to the guide's announcements while touring, and another with a roof. There is a headphone jack, but they are not distributed, and when I tried using my own headphones from overseas, I found that all channels were playing the same music. I don't think I will use this service again. It's troublesome to have to go to the initial boarding location near Tokyo Station (to receive the boarding card) if it rains. The cost performance is not good. That's all.

このバスは、アクセス地域が偏っていて、行きたい場所に合致すれば便利かもしれないが、本数が少ないのでそうは一日で何度も利用するというのは難しい感じでした。
アランワンからのバウチャーを見せても分かってないようで待たされました。
一階には乗せない2階のみに乗車させ、ガイドのアナウンスを聞きながら周るタイプのバスと、屋根のあるタイプのバスと2通りのようでした。(どちらかが来る)
イヤフォンジャックはありますが、配られることも無く、手持ちの海外で使用したイヤフォンを試に入れてみたら、どのチャンネルも同じ音楽が流れているのみでした。
私はもう利用しようとは思わない。
雨が降ったら困る、東京駅近くの初乗りの場所まで必ず行かなくてはならない(乗車カードを貰う)のが面倒。
コストパフォーマンス的に美味しくは無い。以上。

The Rainbow Bridge was amazing. レインボーブリッジ、最高でした。

Reviewed by: もちぞう

I participated on a clear day in January. I was worried it might be cold since it was an open-top bus, but it wasn't too bad. The best recommended course is the Odaiba course.

After looking up at Tokyo Tower from directly below, the open-top bus headed onto the highway. This was quite a rare experience. It was my first time seeing how large road signs and traffic lights are. Furthermore, it continued to the Rainbow Bridge, and with the good weather, I was able to enjoy views of both Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Skytree. Since it was a weekday, Odaiba had a rather quiet atmosphere, so we continued without getting off until Tsukiji. We got off at Tsukiji, had sushi for lunch, and then boarded the bus again from the same spot to return to the starting point in Marunouchi. Next, I took the Asakusa course heading towards Tokyo Skytree. I wanted to do some sightseeing at Skytree, so I got off the bus there, but it was a very enjoyable bus experience. If it's your first time in Tokyo, just riding this bus would be enough for sightseeing.

I think even people living in Tokyo would enjoy participating with friends or family on a nice day for a drive-like experience.

1月の快晴の日に参加しました。オープントップなので寒いかなと心配でしたがそれほどでもなかったです。一番のおすすめコースは、お台場コース。

東京タワーを真下から見上げた後、オープントップバスは高速道路へ。これはかなり貴重な体験です。道路標識や信号機はこんなに大きいのかと、初めての経験でした。さらに、レインボーブリッジへと続くのですがお天気もよく、東京タワーとスカイツリーの両方の景観が楽しめました。平日だったのでお台場はかなりおとなしい雰囲気でしたので、下車せずそのまま築地まで。築地で下車して、ランチにお寿司をいただき、その後、また同じところから乗車して丸の内のスタート地点へ。次に浅草コースに乗ってスカイツリーへ向かいました。スカイツリー観光をしたかったのでバスの乗車はここまででしたが、かなり楽しいバス体験でした。初めての東京ならこのバスに乗っているだけでも十分観光ができそうです。

東京に住んでいる人でも、お友達や家族と天気の良い日にドライブ気分で参加するのもいいと思います。
