Tokyo: Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour + Audio Guide
About
Discover the Japanese capital at own pace with a Tokyo sightseeing tour aboard the super-convenient Sky Hop Bus. This open-top Tokyo sightseeing bus lets you explore the city’s many cultural highlights and districts, without having to navigate the city’s notoriously busy public transport network. With 12-hour or 24-hour tickets, you’ll have access to three unique sightseeing routes that will drop you to the door of Tokyo’s star attractions and most popular neighbourhoods.
Get up close to iconic Tokyo highlights, such as Tokyo Sky Tree, Asakusa, Tokyo Tower, Tsukiji, Ginza, Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden, and lots more. Along each route, you can sit back and take in the panoramic views of Tokyo and learn about the city’s history and culture from richly detailed audio-guided commentary. See something that piques your interest? Simply hop off the bus and explore at your leisure. Feet tired of walking? Simply hop back on – the next bus is never too far away!
