Tokyo City View

I'm meticulously planning my trip with my family to Japan this summer. When I'm back I'll update this itinerary and share it with who wants it :)

A visit to Japan offers rich history and culture as well as blend of modern and traditional with wonderful food, sights, and people. I lived there for 12+ years and offer travel recommendations with friends and family who plan to visit! This introductory guide is especially helpful for first time visitors to Tokyo... and beyond. Japan is an archipelago of over 14,000 islands of which approximately 260 are inhabited. Japan's four major islands are Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu and Shikoku. Read on for information about when to visit, where to stay, and sights to see in Tokyo as well as ideas for other places to visit, foods to try, and useful Japanese travel phrases. * Save this guide for a future trip*

Tokyo is a playground for adults and one of the most wonderful places I have ever been, largely because of the kind people. This is a packed four-day guide of my favourite things to do in Tokyo. You can definitely spread this out over 5 days. Let me know if you have any other questions! We also did a couple of day trips I will post about later.
