After lunch, take pleasure in observing a traditional tea ceremony, engage in the process of preparing tea yourself, and savour each and every sip.

Concluding our day excursion, we ascend to the main deck of Tokyo Tower, the iconic symbol of Tokyo. From the Tower's main deck, you'll witness a stunning view that blends the lively cityscape with the beauty of classic Japanese landmarks.
