One of the challenges of navigating Tokyo is the complex transportation system. This tour aims to make your transition easy. Explore the city the local way by utilizing the public transit with the expert who knows the system very well. In the process, we will visit a few neighborhoods that are normally not on the visitor itinerary so you can see some different aspects of the city you might otherwise miss. Along the way I can help with organizing your plans for the rest of your stay. By the end of the tour, you will have a better grasp on the size and overall geography of the metropolis and knowing how to use the efficient public transportation system should boost the confidence to explore the city on your own!
The tour starts at your hotel or other designated location and here are my suggestions for going to lesser visited areas of Tokyo: *KAGURAZAKA - the quiet neighborhood that was once the geisha district *HARUKI MURAKAMI LIBRARY - inside the Waseda University campus, it is dedicated to one of the most famous novelist/writer in Japan *WASEDA EL DORADO - a Gaudi-like building by architect Von Jour Caux *HIGO HOSOKAWA GARDEN - traditional Japanese garden with roots from the Edo period *Taking the city's only remaining tram system to ZOSHIGAYA, a quiet temple and a 700 year old ginkgo tree On a rainy day, I might alter the itinerary while maintaining the "hidden neighborhood" approach. The tour will finishes close to Shinjuku. Having a SUICA/PASMO transport card will help, but a 24 Hour Tokyo Metro Pass will also suffice. Which is better depends on your overall itinerary in Japan. Feel free to send any questions before the tour. If necessary, I can also help with obtaining train tickets for the rest of your trip.
