The Otaku Tour
Welcome to Akihabara, the area known for anime and technology! Through our hand-held walking tour, WaTo Tokyo will introduce you to this neighborhood by taking you on a tour through time. We’ll explore how Akihabara went from a backstreet black market to the huge anime and otaku megapolis it’s become! We’ll visit the famous Radio Kaikan, the old train station, Junk Street, and a variety of shops and the local shrine. Along the way, our tour will direct you to yummy food, incredible photo opportunities, and we'll keep you busy with mini-games and challenges along the tour route to make things fun and interactive. Come walk with us!
This hand-held walking tour is best for groups of 2-6, and can take anywhere from 1-3 hours to complete, depending on how many challenges you partake in. This tour is self-guided, so you can go anytime. We recommend starting early afternoon to early evening. Most stores and shops don’t open until 10 AM. This tour comes as a downloadable PDF you can refer to on your phone. You don't need WiFi access, but it helps to have a connection for directions. We recommend using this tour with good walking shoes, sunscreen, and pocket change.
