What To Expect
Stop 1
⏱ 25 minBegin at a golden ginkgo avenue, where hundreds of trees line the streets in a breathtaking tunnel of yellow leaves. It is one of Tokyo’s most iconic autumn views and the perfect way to start your journey.
Stop 2
⏱ 1hAdmission includedStep into Tokyo’s most famous city garden, where Japanese, French, and English styles blend into one breathtaking landscape. In autumn, vibrant red maples and golden gingkos create a painter’s dream. During our visit, you will pause for a relaxing tea experience with matcha and a seasonal wagashi sweet, enjoyed at one of the charming tea spots inside the garden. This cultural break offers a moment of calm surrounded by nature.
Stop 3
⏱ 35 minDiscover a hidden treasure away from the tourist crowds. Nezu Shrine is one of Tokyo’s oldest, with rows of scarlet torii gates winding through a canopy of autumn leaves. Few visitors know this secret spot, which makes it all the more magical. Try your luck with an omikuji fortune or leave a handwritten ema plaque wish for an authentic connection to Japanese tradition.
