Now here’s a chance to do something good, meet new people, and have a great day out in Tokyo.
What happens?
Tokyo River Friends organizes regular litter-picking events on the banks of the Arakawa, Edogawa, and Tamagawa rivers. As well as helping the environment, participants can enjoy a guided eco-walk experience along the riverside, learning about the wildlife on the water’s edge.
No reservation required — just show up at the appointed meeting spot. The organizer will lead everyone to the site together so be on time. After a few hours of work, participants usually head out for a picnic or meal at a local restaurant.
