Tokyo Blur (referred to as Tokyo Blur 1 from version 1.2.0 to 1.4.0) is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is named after and inspired by Tokyo, Japan and makes its debut in the tour in the city’s namesake tour, the Tokyo Tour. The course also appears as Tokyo Blur R (reverse), Tokyo Blur T (with ramps), and Tokyo Blur R/T (reverse and with ramps). The course's music is based on the theme of 3DS Toad Circuit and 3DS Mario Circuit. The course is a favorite of Toad (Pit Crew), Mario (Hakama), Toad (Party Time), Daisy (Yukata), Peach (Happi), and Bowser Jr. (Pirate).

Course layout
In the standard layout, all of the racers start the course on the central span of the Rainbow Bridge. Just after the starting line, the road curves to the right through Ginza, then makes a slight left before the Wako store. Not long after, the course makes a right U-turn near the National Diet Building and the Miraikan, then goes through a tunnel. As the Tokyo Skytree, Asahi Beer Hall, and Tokyo Big Sight come into view, the road makes a wide right turn back onto Rainbow Bridge. Fuji TV's headquarters can be seen on the left.
Appearances
This is the only course based on a real world city to have appeared in five different tours: the Tokyo Tour, the Summer Festival Tour, the 1st Anniversary Tour, the Mario vs. Peach Tour, and the 2nd Anniversary Tour. It also made a minor appearance on the Mario Tour as the third and final race on the 2-Player Challenge mode.
For this course's tour appearances, see List of Tokyo Blur tour appearances in Mario Kart Tour.

Trivia
- The presence of Noshis in the R/T variant of this course references the kaiju.[2]
- Before the Summer Festival Tour, no kart had Tokyo Blur R listed as a favorite course; instead, its appearances in the Mario Cup and Toadette Cup relied on the spotlight bonus to raise the Kabuki Dasher and the Quickshaw, respectively, to the top tier.
