Check with the Honda Factory public relations, all factories give public tours. Also, Honda has a museum on site that I hear is very good. Only time I've been to Japan was to change planes but if I ever get the time I plan on looking into getting a factory tour.

You should also do a search for a very early thread (about 5 years ago) when a group of S2000 owners went to the original S2000 factory in Tachigi, now I believe the S2000's are built at the Suzuka plant. There are lots of threads out there on this topic.

If time permits, you should make the trek out to Twin Ring Motegi and visit the Honda Collection Hall along with the other on-site activities that are available depending on the day.

If you are in Tokyo you MUST check out the Roppongi Hills Shopping Center... It's New, it's Bad, and it's only a few blocks from the Roppongi night club district. There are also lots of high-end cars in the area since it's near many of the foreign embassies and some really nice Japanese neighborhoods.

If you get a chance you can also check out a Kabuki Theater matinee in Ginza; tickets are pretty cheap ~$20 and you can rent headphones with Japanese/English interpreters. You can ask any of the police (koban) or other tourists in Ginza where the theater is... a very awesome experience.
