Tokyo Night private tours put your group in a car with a driver-guide for an evening among the lit sights. You are collected at your hotel, you set the pace, and most fares cover the whole car.
One fare for up to nine: four hours in a private vehicle with a driver-guide, picked up anywhere in Tokyo, with stops from the bay to Asakusa and Shinjuku. Child and baby seats come on request; WiFi and snacks are on board.
From $488 per group (up to 9)
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Five hours from 7:00pm, collected in Shibuya or at your address, with half an hour at each of five lit stops. Priced per person for up to six. A sights-and-photos evening rather than a history lesson.
From $195 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Up to five people, four hours, eight lit stops, and pickup at your hotel or at Haneda Airport inside the time. Extra hours cost 7,000 yen each, and Narita is not served.
From $318 per group (up to 5)
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Four hours for up to three, from your hotel in Tokyo or Yokohama and back. You choose the stops from a list that runs from the bay to Akihabara and Shinjuku. No alcohol is allowed in the vehicle.
From $244 per group (up to 3)
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
The winter one: four hours round the city's Christmas lights with a driver-guide dressed as Santa, carols and decorations in the vehicle, and cards, water and snacks. One fare for up to nine; dates are offered when you book.
From $594 per group (up to 9)
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Not in Tokyo itself: two and a half hours among the lit factories of the Kawasaki waterfront with a government-licensed guide-interpreter. Pickup is in Kawasaki, Haneda or Yokohama only, which suits a layover.
From $52 per person
Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead.
Four hours in a private vehicle with a driver-guide and stops from the bay to Asakusa, for $488.18 per group. Child and baby seats on request.
Check availabilityIt is a car, a driver-guide and your group, for an evening. You are collected at your hotel or another address, driven between the lit sights, and let out at each one for photos and a short walk. Most drives drop you back where you started.
The stops are the ones that look best lit: the bay and Rainbow Bridge, Odaiba, Tokyo Tower, Ginza, the temple at Asakusa, and the crossings of Shibuya and Shinjuku. You spend ten to forty minutes at each, and the rest of the time in the car.
Most are priced for the whole group, from $244.20 to $594.78. The five-hour after-dark drive and the factory-lights drive in Kawasaki are priced per person instead.
$488.18 covers up to nine people on the driver-guided evening. That is $122.05 each for four of you, or $54.24 each for nine.
Nobody meets at a station exit in the dark. The car comes to your hotel's door or taxi rank, and the customizable drive will also collect you at Haneda Airport inside its four hours.
You can ask the guide to linger where you like and skip what you do not. The Tokyo-or-Yokohama drive lets you choose every stop from a list. On the nine-stop evening, Shibuya and Shinjuku are the stops that go if time runs short, so say early if they matter to you.
A car suits a family better than a bar crawl. The driver-guided evening offers child and baby seats on request. The Tokyo-or-Yokohama drive does not take babies under one.

For four people in central Tokyo, the customizable drive is the lowest, at $79.63 each. The factory-lights drive costs less still, but it runs in Kawasaki and collects you only there, at Haneda or in Yokohama.
Four hours by private car for up to five, eight lit stops and the drop-off inside the time, for $318.52 per group.
Check availabilityWhat happens at pickup, and how the evening ends, is in what to expect on the night. For the stops themselves, see the lit landmarks and their hours.
