Overview

La strada che conduce al tempio accoglie visitatori da secoli. Oggi è fiancheggiata da bancarelle di cibo, negozi tradizionali e folle provenienti da tutto il mondo, ma il ritmo del quartiere conserva ancora l'atmosfera di una Tokyo più antica. Asakusa è uno dei pochi luoghi della città dove monumenti storici, attività commerciali locali e vita quotidiana coesistono. Questo tour esplora sia i luoghi più famosi che le strade che li circondano.

Oltre il complesso del tempio, il quartiere si apre su strade più tranquille, ricche di piccole botteghe artigiane, negozi a conduzione familiare e tracce del passato della zona. La vostra guida locale vi aiuterà a orientarvi tra i principali monumenti e i luoghi che conferiscono al quartiere il suo carattere distintivo. I luoghi più famosi sono solo una parte della storia.

The Asakusa tour was absolutely incredible, the walk through the culture, and history was quite enlightening. Both my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed. Much of our satisfaction was because of our amazing tour guide, Rose! She was warm, patient, flexible, and knowledgeable, making every part of the experience feel engaging. Rose took the time to share meaningful insights. Her kindness, and professionalism truly stood out. If it’s your first time, I highly recommend the Asakusa tour with Rose as your tour guid

Hana was great! We were very fortunate to have her show us around Asakusa. She was so friendly and informative that it was like touring with family. I wish we could have spent more time with her for the rest of our trip in Tokyo. Highly recommend!

The tour was great. Showed us the classic Asakusa temple, and the not so known one as well. We loved how he took his time to take us on a scenic walkway as well!
