Tokyo Akihabara Anime Culture, Retro Game & Maid Cafe Visit

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Join us on a guided walk through Akihabara, Tokyo’s electric heart of anime, gaming and otaku culture! 

Together with your friendly local guide you’ll explore the streets, arcades and stores that make this the icon of modern Japanese pop culture! 



Our guides are known for their energy, deep knowledge of anime and gaming history, and ability to make every stop fun and memorable!

They honestly love answering questions and sharing where to find the best collectibles, retro games and limited edition merchandise, so please ask them anything! 



Our standard package is a 2 hour guided walk covering Main Streets but also local stores that are more “tucked away” and local!
At the end we visit an Arcade where you will get to compete in a game of Mario Kart!

If you choose the optional 3 hour package, we end the tour with a visit to a maid cafe!

If you want a deeper connection to modern Japanese pop culture, this tour is perfect for you! :)
