[Tokyo] Asakusa Senso-ji Temple & Backstreets Half-Day Tour
- What to expect
-
This is a walking tour that takes you through Asakusa, where the traditional downtown culture of Tokyo remains strong, accompanied by a local guide. Centered around Senso-ji Temple, known as Tokyo's oldest temple, we will guide you not only to classic spots like Kaminarimon Gate and Nakamise-dori Street, but also to back alleys that tourists rarely visit and areas beloved by locals. During the tour, we will provide easy-to-understand explanations of Asakusa's history and culture, the etiquette of visiting temples, and Japanese beliefs and traditions. On Nakamise-dori Street, you can learn about the history of the shopping street that has continued since the Edo period, as well as traditional Japanese sweets and crafts. Furthermore, we will venture into the back alleys a little further from the hustle and bustle around Senso-ji Temple, visiting spots where you can feel the old townscape and local life. You can discover another charm of Asakusa, where the daily lives of local people breathe, not just Asakusa
