The best way to explore a city sky hop offers 3 routes that cover all the major must sees in Tokyo can be done in one day but the best option is to get the 2 days pass that allows you to get off and see the sights at different locations I highly recommend

Headout is very useful, having the phone number to ask any questions is great. The route we took wes lovely. I thought we had booked a 24 hour pass, it's a One day pass, be careful, they are different! 😅 Also I think it would really help to add information on the route planner about near by underground connections. We found this difficult to navigate and unfortunately our phone assistant couldn't answer that question. I would, however recommend HOHO as a great way to get a sense of Tokyo. Thank you!

The staff were lovely and helpful. I would recommend starting with the red line from the first stop near Tokyo station. I started at stop number 4 on green line, which wasted about 2 hrs of the day because bus didn't arrive there till just before 10am and took an hour to get to main station with not much of interest on the way.

Going straight to areas. But I wish Shibuya was closer to the crossing area ans wish they made a stop close to Harajuku station. I had to walk to each and the stop was in the middle of both.

The hop on hop off tour was complete nonsense as the buses only ran every few hours. What's the point? The tour means that you can get off the bus, have a look around and get back on the next bus. We skipped the bus completely and only went to the Skytree. I can only advise against the bus tour in this format

There needs to be a better plan for rain - it was the flooding and pooling of water in the open deck busy that was more of an issue that the rain coming down. The bus should be able to have temporary covers for the rain, especially during the rainy season. We only lasted 1.5 hours. After this time we were too wet to continue. The guide was very helpful and she cannot be blamed for the rain nor the open deck bus.

The best way to explore a city sky hop offers 3 routes that cover all the major must sees in Tokyo can be done in one day but the best option is to get the 2 days pass that allows you to get off and see the sights at different locations I highly recommend

Tips to make the best of your Hop-on Hop-off Tokyo tour

  • Tokyo is packed with must-sees, so stay on for one full loop to get the lay of the land! Spot your favorites, take notes, and then hop off like a pro on round two. 
  • If you’re in Tokyo, you have to see Mt. Fuji. Period. A day trip from Tokyo lets you soak in those postcard-worthy views. Think hot springs, lakeside scenery, and that iconic snow-capped peak – because Tokyo’s skyline is great, but Fuji is forever.
  • After a day of city-hopping, unwind on a dreamy Tokyo cruise. Go on a dinner cruise, soak up cherry blossoms while savoring sukiyaki (a rich hot pot with thinly sliced beef and veggies), or channel old-school Japan on a Yakatabune houseboat with a steaming hot pot. Sightseeing and feasting? Yes, please!
  • Maximize the fun and savings with combo tickets! Pair your hop-on hop-off tour with top attractions like Tokyo Tower or Skytree.  
  • Slurp ramen in Shinjuku’s Omoide Yokocho, grab sushi in Tsukiji Outer Market, or hunt down the best melon pan in Asakusa. Whether it’s street eats or Michelin treats, Tokyo is a feast – don’t just see the city, taste it!
