Yes, you can absolutely take a taxi across the Rainbow Bridge in Tokyo, as it is a major vehicular thoroughfare connecting Shibaura to the Odaiba waterfront. In 2026, the bridge features two decks: the upper deck for the Shuto Expressway and the lower deck for the Yurikamome monorail, local traffic, and pedestrians. A taxi ride across the bridge offers some of the most spectacular views of the Tokyo skyline and the "Statue of Liberty" replica in Odaiba, especially at night when the bridge is illuminated with solar-powered rainbow lights. For 2026 visitors, a taxi from Shimbashi to Odaiba takes about 10–15 minutes and costs roughly ¥2,500 to ¥3,500. While walking the 1.7km pedestrian path is a popular 30-minute experience during the day, taking a taxi is the preferred way to cross quickly and comfortably, particularly during the humid summer months or when carrying shopping bags from the DiverCity mall.
