Anna Kraskovska
Welcome travel fans! I’ve been traveling around the world for 20 years and most of my trips were to Asia. I think I have been crazy about Japan since I was a child and I will be happy to share this passion with you…
Yokohama is the second-largest city in Japan with a population of over 3 million people. It is one of the biggest port towns in Japan situated on the western coast of Tokyo Bay also known for its great food, the largest Chinatown in Japan, beautiful parks, special Japanese ice-cream, 100 types of sake and one of Japan’s leading beer breweries. Visit the Yokohama Port Museum and climb aboard a gorgeous sailing ship, enjoy amazing city views from a Sky garden, and try authentic Cantonese dishes in Yokohama Chinatown. There are so many things to do here.

Visit or not
Choose Yokohama for a day or 2-day trip in case you have already been to Tokyo before and you are not in a hurry, but don’t have enough time to visit Osaka or Kyoto. Even in that case I would first choose Kamakura for a day trip and if I still have at least 1 more day I would go to Yokohama. And it doesn’t mean it’s not interesting enough. It’s really nice and worth your attention, however make sure you don’t miss other signature places.
Choose for family trip
Yokohama is a great destination if you have kids. It is less crowded than Tokyo and you will easily have so much fun with your family exploring many attractions without so much booking in advance.

When is the best time to come to Yokohama?
The best seasons to visit Yokohama are Autumn and Spring. Cherry blossoms usually begin blooming at the end of March. If you want to visit Yokohama in April, book in advance because it gets more crowded.
How many days to spend in Yokohama?
I don’t recommend visiting other places if you have only a few days in Tokyo and this is your first visit to Japan. Yokohama is just 30 minutes south of central Tokyo and can be easily reached by train from Tokyo Station or Shibuya Station. So in case you have already explored Tokyo and still have more time to discover more places, first choose Kamakura and then Yokohama. I think 2 days will be enough to cover the most interesting sights and gems.
What to try in Yokohama?
04
When Is Cherry Blossom Season In Yokohama?
Frankly speaking, cherry blossoms are unpredictable. However, we can assume its blooming around the last week of March and the first week of April.
05
Is Yokohama worth visiting with kids?
Yokohama is very kids-friendly with plenty of activities for the whole family. Start your family adventures with Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, discovering underwater creatures, then move to Zoorasia to learn more about animals and finally have fun in Cosmoworld.

We paid in advance for a customized travel itinerary from Anna. While the initial itinerary was well thought out and included some great suggestions, we didn't feel as though we received much support during the actual trip. Although Anna did send us recommendations for accommodations and some changes to the itinerary, it didn't completely meet our needs. While the service was friendly, in the future we may choose to plan our travels on our own.
