CANCELLATION POLICY

Posted By : lauramV83LD
We had a great time using The Tokyo Pass because it provided access to over 50 popular cultural sites, including the Tokyo National Museum. One spot that really stood out was the Fukagawa Edo Museum. We stopped by on our way to Kiyosumi Teien Garden and it felt like we had stepped back in time to old Japan. Very detailed immersion experience in Fukagawa area during the Edo period.

We highly recommend using The Tokyo Pass. The customer service was excellent, it was easy to download and use, and the instructions were straightforward.
