Heavy on the booking reservations! My first time eating in Tokyo was not as wonderful as everyone on TikTok made it out to be because I didn't have reservations or knew where to go. Not every random sushi and ramen restaurant you go to will be great. Make those reservations a month in advance! My second trip was a wonderful eating experience because of it.

Download the tabelog app for restaurant reservations. Tons of same day Omikase places. Buy a Welcome Suica card as soon as you arrive at the airport. Use this for the JR train lines (A MUST) and to use at 7/11, Lawson, and Family Mart. You will need cash. Exchange at the airport.

Definitely need cash in Japan. Majority of the places were cash only. also a good change purse or wallet.

I’ve been to Japan and I disagree with the reservations, unless you want to go to a fancy tourist restaurant, I don’t see a point. I came across so many high quality and cheap restaurants without any reservations. I do agree with having a bank and card that doesn’t charge for exchange rates. Now, if you are planning to go to a shrine/temple and buy omamoris, you will need cash. Guys, it’s okay to get lost in Japan, it’s safe and fun. Don’t overwhelm yourself, take your time in each play your visit and enjoy. Your itinerary does not need to be packed.

YES to reservations!! we stayed in ginza and one night, we spent over an hour walking into every restaurant we saw and not a single one had a table available within the next two hours 🥲 ofc this depends on the time you visit, the area, etc. but next time i’d rather just make reservations and avoid this altogether

omakase is overrated. a kiseki dinner at a ryokan is so much better

if you bank with chase , you can do usd currency exchange for yen. You have to request the currency exchange with a bank teller, have cash ready for how much yen you would like but make sure you are prepared with your cash!

NEVER plan/book any activities on ARRIVAL day Period, not only because of jet lag, but also flight delays

As someone who’s been to 80 countries, the “never bring USD” isn’t a one fit all. Many countries you get 30-40-60% more if you exchange crisp $100 bills

💯 on reserving things in advance, but that's usually for the larger, fancier, more touristy-viral places. My best food experiences have been at small little holes in the wall that are hidden gems that usually only locals know about... we're talking about tiny little places that don't even have a sign and are standing room only tucked away in a small alley. I have Japanese cousins who know these places and they've all been bangers 👌 So make a Japanese friend who knows where to go 😁

It’s best to stay up late the first night otherwise you’re waking up super early next day and you won’t be able to do anything since Japan opens late
