Tokyo: Imperial Palace and Shogun Historical Walking Tour
One of the best activities we had
Our guide was very informative, friendly, and funny. We leaned about history and architecture! We leaned so much from him that we never would have known without doing guided tour. This was an excellent tour!

Tokyo Castle & Imperial Palace - Shogun Walking Tour
Compact and Complete
It was a 2 &1/2 tour. You cannot enter the actual palace. However you get to learn about the palace, some of the gardens, walls and other structures on the grounds. Nono was fantastic!
