Plan points
Savory Street Food Adventure!
After meeting near the iconic Kaminarimon (Thunder Gate), we'll head straight into Nakamise Shopping Street. From classic ningyo-yaki (small cakes shaped like dolls) to crispy Asakusa menchi-katsu (fried minced meat cutlet), freshly baked melon pan, and delicate matcha crepes – get ready for a culinary journey! Your local guide has curated a special food map to help you discover the best bites Asakusa has to offer. Best of all, all food and drinks are included in your tour price – so just relax and enjoy tasting your way through Asakusa!
(Vegan options available)
Dive Deep into Asakusa's Fascinating History!
Once we pass through Nakamise, we'll visit the magnificent Sensoji Temple and Asakusa Shrine. Why is there a giant straw sandal hanging in the temple? How did Nakamise Street come to be? Your knowledgeable guide will share captivating stories and insights into Asakusa's rich culture and centuries-old history!
Explore Every Corner of Asakusa!
After paying our respects at the temples, the adventure continues! We'll stroll through Nishi-Sando (West Approach) with its quirky souvenir shops, venture down Hoppy Street lined with lively izakaya pubs, and discover the hidden gems of Kannon-ura – the charming backstreets behind the temple. Experience Asakusa like a true local!

I enjoyed shopping for Japanese goods on Hanayashiki Street. I bought a fan and chopstick rest at a good price, with a warm local vibe.
