Explore Tokyo

Tokyo is the capital and largest city of Japan and Spring is a particularly popular time to visit Tokyo when cherry blossoms (sakura) bloom. Ueno Park and Chidorigafuchi are famous spots for hanami (flower viewing) parties during this season. Tokyo is a paradise for shoppers, featuring districts like Shibuya, Harajuku, and Ginza, offering everything from high-end fashion to quirky street fashion. Entertainment options range from themed cafes to vibrant nightlife in areas like Roppongi and Shinjuku.

Top Tips for Tokyo!

Purchase a Suica or Pasmo card – You can use these cards on trains, buses, and even at convenience stores. Just tap and go – no need to worry about tickets or fares every time.

Despite being a modern city, Tokyo has many cash-only places. Withdraw yen from ATMs at 7-Eleven or post offices, which accept international cards.

Climb Tokyo Skytower for breath-taking views of Tokyo, and on clear days, Mount Fuji is visible from here.

Try Japan’s famous vending machines which offer unique  items, from drinks to ramen! You’ll find them everywhere, especially in busy areas.

@karenexplores 2-WEEK JAPAN ITINERARY 🇯🇵‼️ — TOKYO: 5 days There are so many cities to visit each with their own unique character and fun things to do. My favourite spots are Harajuku, Ueno and Asakusa for the shopping, food and vibes. — LAKE KAWAGUCHIKO (Mt Fuji): 1 day I highly recommend hiring a car to drive around Lake Kawaguchiko. You’ll find amazing views of Mt Fuji here! — KYOTO: 3 days My favourite city of this trip! I would definitely visit for longer the next time I’m in Japan. I love the mix of the traditional with the city-life and I had an amazing day exploring Arashiyama. There is so much more to do there than just visiting the bamboo forest. Be sure to visit Kiyomizu-dera and Fushimi Inari Shrine too. — OSAKA: 4 days Everytime i’m in Osaka, I shop and eat so much. Exploring Dotonbori’s vibrant street is a must. Make sure to check out the iconic signage, shopping alleys, amazing street food and hidden restaurants. No Osaka trip is complete without visiting Universal Studios to see Super Nintendo World and Hogwarts too! — NARA: 1 day You can’t visit Japan without taking a day trip to see the deers which are so cute and fun to feed. I actually went all the way out to Mount Yoshino to the see famous cherry blossom spot too which was so so beautiful too. #japan #japanitinerary #visitjapan #japantravel #japantrip #kyoto #osaka #nara #mtfuji #lakekawaguchiko ♬ Sunshine - WIRA
