|   JAPAN   |  tokyo

Like most, when flying into Japan you will land in Tokyo. As the capitol city there is an endless amount of exploring to do. After you have settled in and dropped off your luggage, it's time to set out for a snack. Tokyo is made of many neighborhoods offering an array of specialties. Shinjuku - for nightlife and underground food halls. Ginza - where you'll find Michelin star restaurants and everything posh. Asakusa - for more traditional snacks and street vendors. Tsukiji - fish market with early morning bites. Harajuku - where you can find themed cafes and all the Instagramable treats.
