What you can expect

Start by meeting your guide at Starbucks close to the palace (see the “meeting point” section for more details).

Let’s walk together towards the grand Otemon Gate of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. As we step through, your guide will lead you on an engaging journey around the palace grounds. The original castle isn’t there anymore—but there’s a fascinating storey behind that, which you’ll hear all about on the tour! You’ll also see a miniature model showing what it looked like in the past.

Along the way, we’ll explore old samurai house, spot some royal koi fish, and admire trees from all over Japan that was gifted to the emperor many years ago.
It’s a peaceful place with a rich history, including the site where Edo Castle once stood over 350 years ago.

This tour is perfect for anyone interested in history or wanting to get a deeper understanding of how Japan became the country it is today :)
