Asakusa 2026 Calendar of Events

We had an amazing private tour to Mt Fuji and the surrounding areas with Live Nippon and our guide, Pradhan.Pradhan was friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating, making sure we got to see some beautiful places and experience the area at a relaxed pace. He was also happy to answer all our questions and share interesting information.We would highly recommend Live Nippon

Our tour was excellently planned and our guide was amazing!! Absolutely check traffic expectations. We only got to do two of the five spots we had on the plan and spent 6 hours in the car stuck in traffic. It was a national holiday. Had there not been traffic the tour would have been perfect but this was obviously not the tour operator or guide’s fault.

Our amazing tour guide, Ramesh was knowledgeable and fun.. educational walking tour, food was delicious

It was very informative, great guide, highly recommended!!

This was so fun my first day Japan I wanted to site see and this was the best way to do it. The guys were all great

This rickshaw tour is led by Yusuke. He is a driver who is very knowledgeable, humorous, familiar with Japanese history, and has excellent driving skills. His Chinese and English are both very good, so there are no problems with communication. This trip started in Asakusa, passing through various shops, landmarks, and temples showcasing the unique characteristics of different Asakusa districts, and finally arriving at the Skytree. Along the way, there was bright sunshine, a cool breeze blowing in our faces, the chirping of birds in the trees, and as Yusuke talked while walking, we didn't realize our rickshaw trip was over. Hope to have a chance to come to Tokyo and ride a rickshaw next time!

Well, you take your chances with Mt. Fuji..rain and cloud...never saw the mountain. Having said that, Mirza was an excellent guide and the day was still worthwhile, as we saw temples, gardens, lakes, museums ,etc.

Very comprehensive and enjoyable tour. Our driver Bajwa was very friendly, polite and professional. The vehicle was very comfortable and clean. It was a very wet day but we still had an enjoyable time.

Had a great time on the tour. Even though I have visited this area previously I still learnt a lot. Matcha making was interesting and tasted better than what I usually have. Kentake was amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable and funny. Highly recommended.

Great fun super interesting great fun love our guide

Very educational and entertaining, the tour guide brought us to multiple food places and made it a great experience for each person

If you’re thinking about taking a rickshaw tour in Asakusa, ask for Diego. We had such a brilliant experience with him from start to finish.He was so friendly and easy to chat to that it felt like we were exploring the area with a local friend rather than being on a tour. His English was excellent, which made it easy to ask questions, and he shared some really interesting stories and insights about Asakusa that we would never have discovered on our own.He also took some fantastic photographs for us along the way. He knew all the best spots and made sure we came away with memories we’ll genuinely treasure, not just the usual quick holiday snaps.The tour was relaxed, fun and full of little details that made us appreciate the area even more. Diego has a great personality and genuinely enjoys meeting people, which really comes across.One of our favourite moments was teaching him the Irish word “craic”. Hopefully he’s adding it to every tour now because he definitely brought plenty of it himself!Thank you, Diego, for making our visit so memorable. You’re a credit to the team and we’ll be recommending you to anyone visiting Tokyo.

Max was a great tour guide. He communicated well, picked us up on time and got us to the sights ahead of the crowds. In addition to the fan favorites he showed us a relatively hidden gem that was a true surprise and one of the best memories we’ll have from the trip. He was fun and knowledgeable and helped make the day special.

Petteri met our train to do a trip to Mt Fugi and the surrounding areas, unfortunately too much cloud cover to see Mr Fugi, however we visited other areas of interest in lieu. Petteri was a fabulous guide and driver. We chatted the whole trip, he was a very friendly person.

Thanks David for a great tour and seeing as many sites as we did. The Kitaguchi shrine was the best we have seen and the boat tour on the lake Kawaguchi was very scenic. We missed Mt Fuji but still toned out nicely!

Driver/Guide was excellent and very informative. He guided us through out and ensured that we maximized the time
