“Highly recommended, gives a great background about Tokyo, it's history and more. Our guide Atsushi san was amazing! he is very knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. Do take into account though that the tour is marked "wheelchair accessible", while in fact you can only take it if you can go up and down the bus's steps.
