About this guide

AsakusaTemple.com is an independent guide to Senso-ji, the Buddhist temple in Asakusa, Tokyo, and to the walking tours, food tours, rickshaw rides and kimono experiences around it. We are not the temple, a tour operator or Viator, and the site name describes the place we write about rather than a business. For the temple's own information, see senso-ji.jp; for the city's, see Go Tokyo.

Facts here are checked against the temple's site, Go Tokyo, the operators' own listings on Viator (including recent guest reviews) and other published sources. Prices, meeting points and opening hours change; when a listing and this page disagree, the listing at checkout wins.

The site is funded by affiliate commissions: when you book through a Viator link here, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That never changes what we recommend, including telling you that the temple itself is free and that you do not need a tour to see it. Details on the affiliate disclosure page.
