The play of the cursed child, 8th story of our favorite wizard AND this time of his son Albus Severus Potter! 4 hours of performance with guaranteed show! The acting, the sets, choreography, staging, visual effects, magic, sound effects... Everything is there and it's amazing for a play. Subtitles via a smartphone are available in English and Chinese in exchange for a guarantee of 10,000 yen that you get back at the end of the performance by returning the equipment. A catering area and an official store are present. An intermission after 2 hours to be able to eat or go to the toilet.

I recently took the Mt. Fuji tour booked through Klook, and it was an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, everything was well-organized and exceeded my expectations.

the tour guide was fantastic. he really helped understand and experience the small things around the area and also explore a side of Japan that gets left out when living in the big city.

Love the guide.He is very informative making the journey very enjoyable. Recomended to take this tour if you have limited time in Tokyo and dont plan anything after the tour coz the returning time may take longer than expected.

We had the experience just today and we came back home more than satisfied.. both the guide and the driver were coordinated and did everything to make us live the experience at its best and trying to avoid the heavy traffic on Sunday! for this reason the initial route was changed but we still managed to see all the stops indicated by the Tour. information about the places was shared and in addition our guide was always very nice, helpful and attentive! my partner and I thank him from the bottom of our hearts. finally we were also lucky enough to find a perfect day and to see Mount Fuji from different places.. I share some photos with you 😊 anyway I say goodbye and fully recommend this experience!

A very good hotel with self-service check-in and check-out. The self-service machines are in Chinese. I booked it for Halloween because it was convenient and the other one was too expensive. This one is about a minute's walk from the subway station in the center of Shibuya. It's worth booking. If you like the vitality of Shibuya, you can consider it.
