The Asakusa Night Tour is an official guided service route where you walk through Asakusa at night with a Tokyo volunteer guide. The route covers the observation terrace, Nakamise Street, Sensoji Temple, and the Sumida River waterfront in a season-specific order.

The tour is free, but advance registration and a check on availability are required. Restaurant reservations and shared dining are not included, so plan meals separately before or after the tour.

Useful tips

  • Applications are open from one month before your preferred date until three days before, so check as soon as your travel dates are set.
  • The route is mostly on foot, so if rain is forecast, a raincoat that leaves both hands free may be more comfortable than an umbrella.
  • Looking at the evening schedule, the official guide says groups can have up to five participants, and the tour must include at least one participant aged 20 or older. If you're joining with several family members or friends, check the group-size requirement first before applying.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need any money besides the guide fee?

According to official information, the guide itself is free. Personal purchases and meals along the way aren't included, so bring separate money for snacks, drinks, and transportation.

Does the walking order change by season?

Official guidance lists separate routes for September to March and April to August. Both routes start at the Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center, but the order of the Sumida River waterfront, Sensoji Temple, and Nakamise Street changes.
