A great way to see Tokyo, offering sightseeing and cultural aspects in a really enjoyable way. The local operator understands how to present the best in a timely and interesting way. The guide was entertaining and informative. The lunch was absolutely delicious, with first class service and good company. We really recommend this tour!

This trip was for the most part excellent, and a fantastic way to start a trip to Tokyo.
Our favorite part was the Tea Ceremony and surrounding gardens, which were both delightfully tranquil and relaxing experiences.
The only change we would make was the visit to the imperial palace, while the cultural significance of the palace can't be understated, seeing it from afar (as it is closed almost all year) does it no justice.
Tour guide was informative and kept the group moving along well.

The tour gave a good overview of some of the important sites to see in Tokyo and the guide was very professional and spoke very clearly in English. There was a lot to see which made the day very interesting and the boat trip was very relaxing. The lunch served in a restaurant overlooking the bay was excellent - 3 courses with a glass of wine, with impeccable service, in a very clean and comfortable environment.

The guide and this tour as a whole was great. In the 21 days of our holiday in Japan and China the barbeque lunch provided was the best we had in a very beautiful location.

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.

This tour is highly recommended. We had a great time. Tour guide was ok and nice. However, we had limited time at Asakusa for souvenir shopping. I wished we had a longer time.

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 !

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.

We have travelled all over the world but this was our first visit to Japan. This tour is the best we have been on. Our tour guide Keiko was excellent, knowledgeable, interesting, helpful and fluent in English. The organisation was exemplary and we packed a lot in without feeling on a conveyor belt, great restaurant for lunch, relaxing cruise and in all a must see if you want an overview of Tokyo at a great value price.

Good tour to cover as much of Tokyo in a short time. Lunch fantastic. Could have used more time at the Asakusa Temple City, however we did get a great value for the day.

The tour guide, Naomi-san, was great. She had good information and was full of energy. This is a quick stop and overview of these places which was perfect for us, and the river cruise was nice and relaxing.

The tour was ideal, a good way to see Tokyo is just 4 hours.
Good weather and visibility is ideally needed though.

This is a great tour which gives a good overview of the city. We particularly enjoyed the tea ceremony at the Japanese garden and the river cruise. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and provided us with a lot of valuable information about the sights that we were visiting and the city and the country generally. Overall, a very enjoyable and informative experience. Highly recommended.

Certainly the best thing to do at the start of a holiday in Tokyo. Shame that a couple of items were missed out of the program because our trip fell on a Friday, but the lunch made up for it, excellent lunch and well worth the cost.

At first they said its expensive to have this tour, but the experience and the convenience from transportation, tour guide, and the whole tour are all great. On my next visit i will surely be getting more tours and be able to enjoy JAPAN. Thank you that my wife and kids enjoy the rest of the tour.

This tour was the highlight of our time in Tokyo. Everything from the tour of the Imperial Palace Gardens to the fantastic boat ride on Tokyo Harbour. Lunch was lovely and our guide Mr Sato was just wonderful & very entertaining. He gets 6 Stars!
