Travellers can explore over 110 unique experiences through the platform. From immersing themselves in the serene beauty of a traditional tea ceremony to witnessing the intricate artistry of a bonsai demonstration, visitors can delve into the rich cultural tapestry of Tokyo. What's more, the platform offers opportunities to participate in interactive workshops like ikebana flower arranging or traditional Japanese calligraphy, and embark on guided tours exploring hidden gems and local neighbourhoods.
The platform allows visitors to purchase tickets in advance for upcoming events or for experiences happening on the same day. Bookings are made through integrated partner sites, ensuring a secure and efficient transaction process. In instances where a partner site doesn't support a particular language, the platform defaults to English to guarantee accessibility for all users.
