Enjoy the cherry blossom and incredible food during your trip to Tokyo
The Tokyo Restaurant Bus by Willer Travel is a tourist bus that allows people to enjoy the sights of Tokyo together while tasting authentic food and drinks. In this double-decker bus with a kitchen downstairs and open-air seating upstairs, passengers look out over Tokyo from a three-meter-high platform, offering a view of the city unlike any other.
Whether you choose the afternoon or evening itinerary, the route will take you past some of the best places to watch the cherry blossoms in Tokyo, including Chidorigafuchi Moat, the picturesque moat around Tokyo Imperial Castle, and Tokyo Midtown, a park in the center of Tokyo. You will also visit other city attractions such as the Tokyo Tower, the Rainbow Bridge, and the upscale Ginza shopping district," writes Japan Today.

During the trip, an experienced guide will tell anecdotes and facts about the city, and in the middle of the trip, passengers will be allowed to take a 30-minute break to stretch their legs in Odaiba. The entire tour lasts about three hours, depending on traffic.

Meals are also carefully planned. You will have the opportunity to choose a set lunch consisting of French or Japanese dishes.
A sample of the French menu:
Prosciutto rolls, shrimp sakura soup, and quinoa cheese risotto, while the Japanese meal includes seasonal dishes such as eel and soybean pulp terrine and chirashi zushi (raw seafood on rice). And, of course, dessert is served with both meals! All of this will be served with wine or sake while you explore the best sights of Tokyo in the comfort of an ultra-high open-roof bus.
Tasting of Japanese cuisine
Both lunch and dinner cost the same - 16,800 yen per person (16,500 yen for children), with a minimum reservation of two people. The tours will be available on March 20, March 22-24, March 28-31, and April 4-7. They are exclusive to the spring season and will no doubt be popular, so you may want to book early to make sure you have a seat available. Bookings are already open on the official Willer Travel website, which also has an English-language version, thanks to the recent popularity of the tour among foreign tourists.
