Why take this tour?

SPECIAL LIMITED SEASONAL TOUR Stroll along a famous Blossom lined canal and experience true Hanami with a local.

Cherry Blossom season in Tokyo is so beautiful, and even more so in the evening when lanterns and lights turn the tree-lined streets into a magical fairyland. Nakameguro is a trendy, beautiful neighborhood, famous for its 2km route along the Meguro River/Canal. This entire route is lined with cherry trees and it must be seen in person to really get a feeling for how beautiful the cherry trees are. Taste local treats and beverages, explore the history of the district and enjoy a dinner at an amazing izakaya that features seasonal dishes.

Sakura season is short and it's impossible to predict exact dates each year but we will be offering this limited edition tour in the time period most famous for Hanami. With our guide, learn about the area, the meaning and reason behind Sakura season, and taste local specialties that are bound to be pleasing to the eye and to the palate.
