Would recommended to everyone!
This was such an amazing tour! It is perfect if you don’t have a lot of time in Tokyo but want to see it all, or even if you want to get your bearings and decide where you want to go back to later. Yasko was amazing and we ended up being the only two people on the tour so she tailored it to our interests and took us to some excellent spots!

A great tour that give you a little bit of a lot!
I give this tour 5 stars for what it is - a great fast-paced tour that give you a little bit of a lot! First things first, please be sure to wear comfortable shoes and prepared to do a lot of walking! If you are not fit to do so, I do not recommend this tour, consider a private car or bus tour. Sam our tour guide, was great! So friendly and knowledgeable. You will learn quite a bit about Japanese culture along the way and he does a great job of explaining the sites and what they mean. You will learn to navigate the subway system which is worth its weight in gold. Consider taking this tour towards the beginning of your trip because the subway is your friend to get around. It could be a little confusing at first but once you get used to it is so much more efficient to get around and cheaper and QUICKER than Uber! TIP: Add the Suica transit card to your smart phone wallet and load it up before you go! I loaded about 3000 yen (about $19.00 USD) and still have about 1800 yen after using for 4 days. Be advised that this is an “express” tour so don't expect a lot of time at each site but I think this is perfect if you want to take in Tokyo in about 7 hours. I also wouldn't call many of the sites "hidden gems" as they were very much touristy but for my 1st time in Tokyo, I was OK with this as I like to take a city all-in during my 1st visit and then return to specific spots for a deep dive if time allows OR take another trip back if I am that intruigued. Sam will tell you when and how to revisit each site with tips and tricks on how to do so. Highly recommend this tour if you don’t mind walking, seeing a lot but want to do so in express mode!

Our tour guide gave us a...
Our tour guide gave us a very comprehensive historic overview of the temples and Shrines and the cultural backgrounds of how it has evolved through history to today. Really enjoyed every minute and learned so much. We enjoyed the market, historic areas and the Temples and Shrines. Thank you Sam -and Viator!

A must do tour for people new to tokyo
Sam was awesome and made the tour lots of fun. It was great seeing a lot of the main sites and learning some history behind them. Excellent tour to do if you are just starting your Tokyo visit. Be prepared with your transit card and comfy shoes.

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems cost?
+
Prices start at $12000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 13. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 7-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tokyo Full Course Tour: Explore 10 Must-See Sights & Hidden Gems start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tokyo Shinjuku Chopsticks Making Class, Tokyo : Asakusa Chopsticks Making Class, Shinjuku Night Food and Bar Crawl. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
