Tokyo is one of the world's largest and most sprawling
cities, with an extensive subway system renowned for being crowded and confusing to
navigate, but you can make the city much more manageable with a seat on the Sky Hop
Bus. A one- or two-day pass gives you unlimited "hop-on/hop-off" access for three
different routes covering many of Tokyo's most popular locations, including Asakusa,
Skytree, Ginza, Marunouchi (access to Tokyo Station and the Imperial Palace
grounds), Odaiba, Roppongi and Tokyo Tower.
Schedule: You can rent a go-kart for 1or 2 hours, between 10
am and 8 pm (all karts must be returned by 8 pm)
Rent go-karts and enjoy driving them on the public road
starting off from Tokyo's iconic Otaku paradise, Akihabara!
This kart rental shop in Akihabara is the first go-kart rental shop for driving on
the public road. It is good to use as you go sightseeing because you can see Tokyo
from different places. People rent karts for events, advertisements and for many
other purposes.
You can enjoy the go-karts privately or with a group and enjoy cosplay while
driving. Many people wear cute costumes and enjoy Go-Kart on the public road!
There's no doubt that you will stand out in such vivid, unique kart!
Why we love it:
- You can drive on the public road without a seatbelt or helmet.
- The kart's maximum speed is 60km/h!
- You can go outside Akihabara if you return on time!
- People who are planning to purchase the kart, YouTubers who are filming videos,
birthday presents for the kids, etc. – many kinds of people rent go-karts!
After they give you a lecture, you can go for a drive!
We will promise you to make your trip unforgettable! Don't miss this chance!
Mt Fuji, Hakone, Lake Ashi Cruise and Bullet Train Day Trip from
Tokyo
Category: Day out of Tokyo tour
Location: Bus Departs From Tokyo Station
Price: 18000 Yen
Schedule: Coach Departs 08:00 AM
The day begins with a 2.5-hour coach journey to the UNESCO
World Heritage Site of Mt. Fuji, recognizable by its iconic snow-capped peak. On
arrival, you’ll ascend to Mt. Fuji’s 5th Station—located halfway up the mountain at
7,545 feet (2,300 meters)—and absorb unobstructed views of Mt. Fuji’s Five Lakes.
Following Fuji’s 5th Station, you’ll have time to purchase food, or, if you’ve
upgraded, enjoy a traditional Japanese lunch (if you select the "+ Lunch" option at
checkout). Then, head into Hakone National Park by coach and take a short
sightseeing cruise on Lake Ashi.
Your final stop is the summit of Mt. Komagatake, reachable by Komagatake Ropeway,
one of Japan’s highest aerial tramways. During the ride, enjoy more spectacular
views and take a stroll along a mountain trail at the top.
Return to Tokyo by bullet train.
Biking through the busy streets of Tokyo can seem
intimidating, and the roads can be confusing. On this bike tour, your guide—a former
professional cyclist—leads at a relaxed pace and helps you make your way through
traffic and crowded areas comfortably and easily. Plus, this tour also takes you to
the top of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building for 360-degree views over
Tokyo..
Did you know that Tokyo actually is a city of water? The
southeastern part of the Japanese capital faces Tokyo Bay, while the Sumida River
has acted as Tokyo’s gateway to the sea since ancient times. This access to the
ocean has always attracted both people and business, and even today, you’ll spot
many a ship sailing on the rivers and Tokyo Bay.
Among those ships are the so-called water buses, or suijo bus in Japanese. These
unique boat taxis have gained popularity especially among tourists in recent years.
These water buses do not only take you from one place to the other, however; they
offer amazing views on the city of Tokyo, and in some cases even unique gourmet
experiences – let’s take a look at Tokyo’s trendy water buses!
