Akihabara Anime Tour - Exploring Akihabara, the anime capital of Japan, was awesome, especially with a local Japanese guide who knew the best route to take! There are so many shops, but thanks to the guide, we were able to skip the tourist traps and hit the places that actually matter. If you’re into anime or even just curious about it, this tour is 100% worth it!

Fun Family Activity - It was super fun and I loved going up to the tower and looking out at the city. The scooters weren’t too fast and it was easy to learn for beginners. Our guide was also super helpful and even gave us tips on how to use the trains and stuff.

Great way to get your bearings in Akihabara - A short but sweet tour highlighting some of the hidden gems of Akihabara, helping newcomers to the area get an idea of what to expect and where to go. As a lover of retro gaming had a great time browsing old games, reminiscing my youth with the guide and playing new and old arcade games. I even managed to pick up a part I needed for one of my old consoles!
