Tokyo Kimono Tea Ceremony and Rickshaw Experience

Experience Tokyo the way it deserves to be experienced — in comfort, in style, and entirely on your terms. Your day begins with pickup at your hotel in a private luxury car (up to 5 guests) with your English-speaking guide. In the morning, step into historic Asakusa: dress in an authentic kimono, take part in a traditional tea ceremony, and ride through the old streets on a private rickshaw. Every experience is included and pre-arranged — no separate bookings, no waiting in line, no logistics to think about. The afternoon is fully customizable. Choose 2–4 destinations from our suggested list — the Imperial Palace, Akihabara, Ueno, Shibuya, Harajuku — or tell us anywhere else you'd like to go. You can plan your route in advance by messaging us after booking, or simply decide together with your guide on the day. Both work perfectly. One luxury car, one dedicated guide, and Tokyo's most iconic cultural experiences woven into a single seamless day. No research needed — just enjoy.
