Sumida: Tours & Tickets

Excellent. Entered the building then at the far end on the right is a section for international fast track tickets. No waiting just got our tickets and then we were on our way. Brilliant views of Tokyo.

For a taste of a real Tokyo neighbourhood, you can’t beat this tour. We enjoyed a lovely flat neighbourhood for cycling and a really interesting tour that included sake and tofu tasting and a spectacular drum display at a local temple. The tour started with coffee and a historical overview and then we enjoyed cycling around all the points of interest. Our guides were Eri and Kent. They were knowledgeable and charming and we really enjoyed their company. I would highly recommend this tour to those interested in getting off the beaten track and seeing Tokyo beyond the glitz and glamour of ginza ( not that there’s anything wrong with that! We did that too!).

Really liked the view and was easy to get around. Getting a ticket online was a really good choice as the lines can get really long, and we where able to skip that. The top view is really nice on a clear day or with a little fog. It is quit busy up at the top, but that didn't bother us too much.

Tokyo Sky Tree Tower is a MUST see for any visitor to Tokyo. Be sure to visit both levels!.

It took us 2 minutes to enter and go up. We skipped the ticket line and went straight to the elevator after a 20-second check at a separate counter. Great views from the two decks on top.
