★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 254 reviews · 1h 10m · from $11Our pick

A 70-minute Tokyo open-top bus ride with GPS audio in multiple languages, covering Tokyo Tower, Ginza, Rainbow Bridge, and more.

“Good audio descriptions via headphones although the music between segments was too loud compared with the voice. Many facts in the descriptions but not a lot of general interest, e.g. descriptions op how Toykyo residents live. The "VIP" room where we met was quite basic but the lady who spoke very little English, was kind.”
