Private Tour Explore the Four Seasons in Hidden Spots in Akasaka
Tokyo is famous as one of the largest cities in the world, but in its corner, there are beautiful gardens and cultural heritage.
On this tour, you will visit the gardens of one of Japan's leading luxury hotels, the guesthouse that welcomes state guests, and the scenic ginkgo trees that represent Tokyo.
The Japanese-style gardens that are hard to see overseas, but the place surrounded by colorful nature that changes its expression depending on the season will surely heal your travel fatigue.
This tour is perfect for those who want to visit many places with much fewer people and take a little leisurely sightseeing or go to a place rich in nature.
