Pick-up at Your Hotel
Imperial Palace20 minutes
The Imperial Palace was once the home of the Tokugawa Shogunate (1603–1868) and is now the residence of the Emperor. While you can admire the beautiful pine trees and lawns from the car, we recommend getting out for a short walk. A stroll along the historic palace walls and bridges offers a close-up view of the cherry blossoms. You will discover many different types of Sakura while learning about interesting stories and historical details.
Asakusa (Senso-ji Temple)15 minutes
Asakusa is famous for its traditional atmosphere and the historic Senso-ji Temple. In the temple grounds, you can see beautiful cherry blossoms framing the majestic five-story pagoda. It is a perfect spot to experience the classic beauty of old Tokyo and take memorable photos of the Sakura.
Roppongi District20 minutes
Roppongi is known as a sophisticated urban center where world-class art, fashion, and nightlife meet. During the spring, this modern district transforms into one of Tokyo’s most elegant cherry blossom destinations. At "Sakura-dori," you can see a stunning cherry blossom avenue nestled among stylish architecture. Walking through these elegant gardens offers a peaceful escape in the heart of the city, showing a different side of Tokyo's spring.
Zojoji Temple & Tokyo Tower20 minutes
Zojoji Temple serves as the head temple of the Jodo shu Buddhist denomination and is famous as the family temple of the Tokugawa Shogunate. This historic site, where six of the Tokugawa shoguns are laid to rest, becomes even more breathtaking during the spring season. Here, you can see vibrant cherry blossoms with the orange Tokyo Tower in the background. Standing between the ancient temple gates and the modern tower, you will enjoy a unique contrast that is irreplaceable to the heart of Tokyo.

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.
- • 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.
