Tokyo Private Tour by Car

Explore Japan’s capital on a Tokyo private tour by car with Tokyo Grand Tours. Travel in a luxury vehicle with your own English-speaking chauffeur. Your day begins with hotel pickup, so you can settle in and enjoy the city.

Discover historic temples, lively markets and modern landmarks over approximately 7–9 hours. Because the itinerary is flexible, you can spend more time at the places you love.

Sensoji Temple and Nakamise Street

First, explore Sensoji Temple in Asakusa and enjoy the atmosphere around its grounds. Then browse Nakamise Street for traditional souvenirs, gifts and Japanese snacks.

A Flexible Tokyo Sightseeing Itinerary

The stops above form a suggested route. Because traffic and opening hours vary, we may adjust their order. For example, your Skytree ticket time will help shape the morning schedule. Tell us your priorities so we can plan a comfortable day.

Your English-Speaking Chauffeur

Your English-speaking driver is your guide for the day and gives commentary on each sight as you travel between stops. At each stop the driver drops you as close to the entrance as possible and gives you clear instructions, so you can explore at your own pace. The up to 22 guests bus option includes an accompanying walking guide. For the 4-, 6- and 9-guest options, a licensed walking guide who accompanies you inside each sight can be added for an additional fee, subject to availability. Please ask when booking.
