Excursions in Tokyo

The combination of past and future, commitment to cultural traditions and aspiration for everything new – is the main hallmark of the Japanese capital. Even the most advanced Anglicized guidebook can scarcely gain an insight into the soul of an authentic city, able to ritualize anything, even tea-drinking.

But during tours of Tokyo with a guide, the unique opportunities will open to you:

• acquaintance with the ancient art of kabuki in the most exotic temple of Melpomene – "Kabuki-Dza" theater;
• inspection and fitting of the armour suits of ancient warriors at the Samurai Museum;
• walks along the oldest Ueno park with ancient shrines, temples, ponds, hundreds of sakura and the National Museum, named the "Tokyo Louvre", which you should definitely visit with an English-speaking guide;
• learning the origami basics at the Origami Kaikan Gallery;
• a visit to the impressive Senso-ji Temple, the key place in every sightseeing tour;
• order a spectacular anime poster photo at the Purikura no Mecca printing booth;
• climb with a guide to the dizzying height of the overlook platform of a TV tower, nicknamed the "Sky Tree" due to unprecedented height of 634 m.

Apart from exploring city attractions, visit to Tokyo will necessarily include:

• observing of sakura and wisteria blossoms in the picturesque area of Nakameguro;
• river excursion;
• accommodation in a traditional Japanese hotel with a tea room, thermal SPA and onsen;
• visiting a sushi restaurant in Tsukiji's largest fish market;
• guided tour of Ginza Six – ultra-modern shopping complex with 241 stores and new products from local designers and international brands;
• time-out in a cafe with cats or owls (for lovers of mewing or sniffing companions).

Such schedule will allow you to survive a lifetime in 3-4 days and will leave a series of pleasant memories of Tokyo in your memory.
