Overview of your Tokyo tour

Join me on the tour of Tokyo's best spots with incredible contrasts! We'd enjoy some of the following historic spots & attractions. This is not fit for young kids except those who are interested in a culture tour. - Meiji Jingu Shrine : A Shinto shrine in a serene and deep forest in the middle of Tokyo. - Omote Sando St. / Takeshita Alley : Japan's most fashionable avenue (Tokyo Champs Elysees) and the teenagers' fashion hub in Harajuku. - Shibuya : The 'Crossing' and the coolest capital of young Tokyoite. - Tsukiji : Arguably the largest district of sushi bars and seafood retailers. - Imperial Garden : A vast garden in the very center of Tokyo with its famous Double Bridge and the Main Gate. - Sensoji Temple : The oldest temple in Tokyo. Plus, the famous and traditional Nakamise Shopping Alley in front. * You may replace one or more of these places by Akihabara electric town, Tokyo government observatory, Hamarikyu garden (admission fee required) , Yanaka street, or others.
