Tokyo Game Show, Capcom Bar & More - Gamer Heaven Tour 2013

For video game fans, see more than just Tokyo Game Show this September. Sign-up ends August 5.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Join PacSet Tours this September 17-26 for a tour all about Tokyo and video games: the Gamer Heaven Tour! We're not just going to Tokyo Game Show -- we're going one step further to create a social gaming experience unlike any other.

Besides visiting the Tokyo Game Show, Odaiba, Akihabara, and Nakano Broadway, we'll be riding the Leiji Matsumoto-designed Himiko Ferry and checking out Miyazaki's creations at the Studio Ghibli Museum. Experience both a video game-themed meal at the CAPCOM Bar, along with visiting other cool retro game bars. Join the fun as we play at arcades all over Tokyo and learn about games at a local Tokyo school.

Plus: During the entire tour, we will be hosting a gaming tournament for participants for the chance to win 20,000 yen to spend at Trader Akihabara OR Super Potato! Finish off the tour by relaxing with us in the mountain hot spring town of Ikaho, where old-style game booths and the local Mizusawa Temple await your visit.

Prices for the tour start at $2750, which includes a round trip flight to Japan from Los Angeles, accommodations, and more. The tour departs September 17 and returns September 24, while guests on the extension will stay until September 26.
