About this Tour
Wearing a kimono and stroll around Asakusa area and more! There are many good places to take pictures in Tokyo with Kimono. During this tour we would like to take you to the old temple, Japanese garden, shrine, and local neighborhood with pretty street. This is one of the best and memorable experience you can have!
In addition, this tour includes a private vehicle and a driver-guide, so you can travel comfortably around Tokyo while you dressed in a kimono. Having our private vehicle, you can relax in cool temperature on a hot summer day or warm temperature on a cold winter day.

If it's not crowded, the changing process takes less than an hour.

Additional Info
- • Pick-up and drop-off locations are in Tokyo’s 23 wards, Mitaka City or Musashino City.
- • This tour will have a maximum of 9 passengers.
- • Advance reservations can be made a minimum of 24 hours before departure.
- • This is a private tour/activity. Only your group will participate
- • Your chauffeur may not be able to accompany you and your party to certain locations when a parking for a vehicle is not readily available on site. In such situation, your chauffeur may choose to provide you with relevant information about sites inside a vehicle, and answer any questions you may have prior to your excursion on your own.
- • The price on the Tours don’t include entrance fees and meals.
- • The Tours are subject to extra charge (usually 20% of the base price) in case of early morning and late night departure and/or arrival.
- • Some tours may not be available on requested dates due to holiday schedule or a scheduled closure of business.
- • We reserve the right to assign a type of vehicle (Sedan, Minivan or Van) most suitable for your trip, based on the size of your party.
- • Not wheelchair accessible.
- • Most travelers can participate.
- • Our tour images are for illustrative purposes only.
- • The following fees will apply to the cancellation.
- • We will charge a cancellation fee of 100% if booking is canceled 1 day or less before the event
- • We will charge a cancellation fee of 50% if booking is canceled 2 days or less before the event
- • Please enable javascript in your browser to book
- • How does booking work — is it instant?
- It is not an instant-confirm button. You send a request at the bottom of this page and we reply with a written quote: the final price, exactly what it covers, and the cancellation terms for that specific trip. The booking exists only once you accept that quote. Slower than a Book Now button, but nothing gets sold to you that is not actually available.
- • Will we be grouped with other travellers?
- No. Every tour in these two sections is private: your party only, your own vehicle, your own host. No sharing, no waiting on strangers.
- • Where does pickup and drop-off happen?
- Pickup and drop-off at your hotel inside the central area of the city named on the tour, included in the price. Outside that area we can still collect you — the surcharge is written into the quote, never added when you get in the car.
- • Can the itinerary be changed?
- Yes. The hour-by-hour schedule above is the version that works best, not a fixed mould. More driving time, a different meal, an extra night, or dropping a leg — write it in your request; the price moves with it and the change is spelled out in the quote.
- • What languages does the team speak?
- Put the language you want in your request. The quote tells you whether someone who speaks it is free ON YOUR DATE — we do not promise a language and then tell you on the day that nobody is available.
- • When and how do we pay?
- You pay nothing before you have read and accepted the quote. Payment method, payment dates and which part needs a deposit to hold a third-party booking are all written into that quote. Nothing appears afterwards.
- • How far ahead should we book?
- The earlier the surer. Helicopters, ryokan rooms, supercars and tables at small restaurants all have very few slots a day — money does not conjure one up. Ask anyway if your dates are close: if it is open we will take it, and if it is not we will say so plainly.
Cancellation and date changes
The cancellation terms for your trip are written into your quote, and you read them BEFORE you pay anything.
We do not post one blanket rule like "cancel X days ahead for Y% back" across this section, because every trip holds different bookings: an aircraft charter, a ryokan room, a supercar, a table with a handful of seats. Each supplier has its own terms and most are paid up front. One shared number reads tidily and would be the wrong number on most trips.
The rule we hold to: anything not yet paid out to a supplier can be cancelled, and anything already paid that the supplier will not refund we call non-refundable out loud — at quote time, not at the moment you ask to cancel. If you want a different date, ask before cancelling: moving a booking usually costs far less than dropping it.
