WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

On this tour our accredited guide will show you around Akihabara, Japan's mecca for fans of anime, manga, games and electronics. Filled with electronic shops both big and small, as well a number of dedicated subculture stores selling niche pop culture merchandise, Akihabara is the perfect insight into Japan's otaku, or "geek," culture. As you walk, our guide will take you around some of Akihabara's most important locations, explaining how this unique subculture came to be. Common sights included on the tour include:

• Mandarake - The largest anime and manga store in the world, where guests can also buy one-of-a-kind collectibles and valuable first editions.
• Yodobashi Camera - A megastore with nine floors, its has the largest and most impressive collection of electronic you have ever seen.
• Specialist Electronic Stores - From tiny little street stores selling only one specific product to chain stores like Sofmap and towering blocks like Radio Kaikan, Akihabara has it all.
• Purikura - The unique Japanese photobooths that aim to make all their patrons look cute, and Akihabara has some of the whackiest out there!
• Kanda Myojin Shrine - For those interested, a short walk will take you to Kanda Myojin, a vibrant red shrine that has links to anime Love Live.
• And more!

After a tour of Akihabara, you will then sit down to a distinctive meal experience at a maid cafe. Enjoy a cute meal* and drink of your choice while the cafe maids serve your every need (within reason!). Then take a photo with the waitresses as a souvenir. Not just for otaku, all the maids are professional actresses, and everyone is welcome!
