The Tower, the Temple & the Garden Tour

 

This is a tour enjoying the essence of Tokyo with kid in 1 day. Though baby is always welcome in our tour, you can enjoy this tour the most when your kid is over 2 year old. We will be going through the business district with limited baby's facility.

*This tour is nothing to do with C.S.Lewis. I'm just a fan of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe".

ITINERARY

  • Meet the guide at the JR Hamamatsucho station

  • Slip into restaurants where local business people goes. Let's eat what ordinary Japanese have for lunch in their everyday life. 

  • Soak yourself into a dignified atmosphere of Zojo-ji temple with 600 year old history. Hundreds of stone statues awaits for you.
  • Enjoy the superb 360 degrees city scape from the Tokyo Tower's observatory. Glass floor is always popular for kids to jump on!

  • Finish the tour at the exit of Tokyo Tower. I'll tell you how to go to your next destination before saying goodbye.

*Please bring your baby carrier if you are with kids-on-toe. Stroller may go through all the way in this course, but to enjoy the most inside Shiba-rikyu garden and Zojo-ji temple, changing into baby carrier is recommended.

*To reach the Tokyo Tower, we need to climb up a steep slope.

*Since the area is for office workers, even shop's people are welcoming kids, most of the restaurants doesn't offer kid's chair nor kid-size cutlery. Thank you for understanding the circumstance in advance.
