Itinerary

1. Tokyo
This isn’t just sightseeing—it’s a deep dive into Tokyo’s otaku universe, where anime, manga, gaming, and futuristic tech collide. Your host will design a personalized route based on your interests. Whether you're a lifelong fan or a curious newcomer, expect an immersive, high-energy experience through Tokyo’s most iconic pop culture districts. A short online questionnaire will be sent before your tour which helps shape a custom itinerary.
2. Akihabara
Begin your experience in Akihabara —Tokyo’s pop culture hub. Your host will introduce the area and set the tone for your immersive journey into otaku culture, starting right where the action begins.
3. Akihabara Radio Kaikan
