Expert tips in Tokyo

Use public transport

I don’t recommend using taxis despite the fact the taxis in Tokyo are really nice and convenient but also some of the most expensive in the world, even Uber is just as expensive or even more expensive than city taxis.

Obey rules

Don’t smoke or eat while walking Tokyo streets. You will get fine for that. Smoking is allowed only in smoking zones.

Be ready to carry your garbage

Trash cans are very rare objects in Tokyo, better have a plastic bag with you to carry your garbage until you find a can. You can find a few of them in some public restrooms, some train stations and definitely in front of convenience/department stores.

Wake up early

Try to wake up earlier to visit must-see places in Tokyo before the crowd. Morning time is much better for that.

Tokyo Subway Tickets

If you plan to stay in Tokyo 1-2-3 days, a Tokyo Subway ticket is highly recommended (24h/48h/72h). It can be bought at airports, at Tokyo Metro Tourist Information counter (from 9 am to 5 pm) and other places you can check here

1 Chome-13-11 Nishiazabu, Minato City, Tokyo 106-0031, Japan 〒106-0031 東京都港区西麻布１丁目１３−11

Gonpachi restaurant is the location of one of the iconic scenes in Kill Bill. So if you're a fan of the movie, you'll appreciate it better than others.

Yanaka Ginza is a delightful shopping street that takes you back to the old Tokyo scene. This charming street is lined with traditional shops, cafes, and restaurants, creating a unique and authentic atmosphere.

Nakamise-dori

1 Chome-36-3 Asakusa, Taito City, Tokyo 111-0032, Japan 〒111-0032 東京都台東区浅草１丁目３６−3

A great and fun place for street food and souvenir shopping after Sensoji Shrine!

Ameyoko Shopping District

6 Chome-10 Ueno, Taito City, Tokyo 110-0005, Japan 〒110-0005 東京都台東区上野６丁目１０

This street looks more like a traditional Japanese market. There are a lot of food stores and small drinking stores where you can chill with friends or family...

Ginza shopping district

Ginza is Tokyo's first Western-style shopping district for sophisticated Tokyoites. It is a bustling upmarket area with rows of prestigious department stores like Mitsukoshi, high-end boutiques, art galleries and exclusive restaurants.

Markets

Toyosu Fish Market

6 Chome-6-2 Toyosu, Koto City, Tokyo 135-0061, Japan 〒135-0061 東京都江東区豊洲６丁目６−2

The iconic fish market is definitely worth visiting at least once to see the place with the freshest seafood ever and a unique tuna auction that starts at 5:30 am. Some restaurants are open as early as 5 am. It is highly recommended to have breakfast here.

Adachi Fisheries Market

50 Senjuhashidocho, Adachi City, Tokyo 120-0038, Japan 〒120-0038 東京都足立区千住橋戸町50

Unlike its far more famous counterparts like the former Tsukiji Market or its replacement, the Toyosu Fish Market, this market doesn’t suffer from unreasonable crowds. It is much smaller than Toyosu but it’s still great and authentic.

Tsukiji Nippon Fish Port Market

Japan, 〒104-0045 Tokyo, Chuo City, Tsukiji, 4 Chome−１６番２号千社額棟１階〒104-0045 東京都中央区築地４丁目１６番２号千社額棟１階

Omoide Yokocho

1 Chome-2 Nishishinjuku, Shinjuku City, Tokyo 160-0023, Japan 〒160-0023 東京都新宿区西新宿１丁目２

It is located right next to Shinjuku Station on the west side. It’s not a market in the traditional sense, but it definitely feels like one, with its small stores, restaurants and izakaya.

Dangerous & recommended city areas

0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

Shinjuku Kabukicho is not only the largest red-light district in Japan, but also the biggest in the world. Also the Golden Gai area can be a bit dangerous at night due to many local bars and their drunk customers.

0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

The Shibuya Station area and streets could also be a bit dangerous during Helloween. Following last year’s festivities a group of young people were arrested for toppling a small truck, and there were also reports of pickpocketing and groping.

0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

Ikebukuro is considered Tokyo’s second-biggest red-light district (after Kabukicho in Shinjuku.) But even then, it is generally quite safe.

0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

Roppongi is safe during the day, but if you decide to visit it at night, you need to be careful. The danger comes from the bars where there are a lot of drunk locals.

This hotel was very good. The facility and the service here was a 5 star hotel but it cost like a 4 star hotel. The location was very good if you like to go shopping around the Ginza area.

3 Chome-32-12 Asakusa, Taito City, Tokyo 111-0032
〒111-0032 東京都台東区浅草３丁目３２−12

Anna Kraskovska

A modern Ryokan or Japanese style hotel located in the middle of Asakusa infused with an elegant simplicity and aesthetic. It provided a very pleasant and calming type of accommodation in which to stay. The rooms, primarily to fit one or two people, are exquisite in their design and functionality. Making their size not a limiting factor. There has been a lot of thought put into the overall concept with the result that the meals, other amenities, and interiors are exquisite. It is a standout compared to other such hotels in Tokyo.
