@global.and.beyond.travel: You’re wasting your Tokyo trip… …IF you’re choosing a list of attractions and hoping to visit them one by one without an actual plan Tokyo is enormous, but when you group your days properly, you’re keeping nearby places together AND you’re also using the train lines that naturally connect them 👉 PLAN TOKYO BY AREA, NOT ATTRACTION Here’s a much smarter way to structure your first Tokyo trip and the train lines to use each day 👇 📍 SHIBUYA + HARAJUKU + OMOTESANDO
✨Start around Meiji Shrine and Harajuku ✨Walk through Omotesando ✨Finish in Shibuya for the crossing, Shibuya Sky and dinner
🚆 Mostly walk this one! Use the Yamanote or Fukutoshin Line when needed 📍 SHINJUKU
Give Shinjuku its own block of time ✨Head to Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building for free Tokyo views ✨Omoide Yokocho for delicious laneway food ✨ Kabukicho and Golden Gai for nightlife
🚆 The Yamanote Line is one of the easiest ways to reach Shinjuku 📍 ASAKUSA + UENO
Start early at Senso-ji ✨Explore Asakusa ✨Continue to Ueno Park ✨Then Ameya-Yokocho Market for shopping and yummy street food.
🚆 The Ginza Line connects Asakusa and Ueno directly 📍 AKIHABARA + TOKYO STATION + GINZA
✨Start in Akihabara for anime, gaming and electronics ✨Continue to Tokyo Station for Character Street and Marunouchi ✨Stop at Hie Shrine for its striking red torii staircase ✨Finish in Ginza for shopping and dinner under the train tracks at Yurakucho Gado-shita’s tiny izakayas 
🚆 Use the Yamanote Line to Tokyo Station, then the Marunouchi Line to Ginza 📍 ODAIBA + TOYOSU
Keep Tokyo Bay together ✨Combine teamLab Planets, Toyosu and Odaiba instead of criss-crossing the city
🚆 The Yurikamome connects Toyosu, teamLab Planets at Shin-Toyosu and Odaiba 📍 YANAKA + YANAKA GINZA + NEZU SHRINE
For a quieter side of Tokyo: ✨Wander Yanaka’s tiny shops, cafés, bakeries and famous cat statues ✨Continue to nearby Nezu Shrine and its beautiful red torii gates
🚆 Use the Chiyoda Line for Sendagi and Nezu, then explore the neighbourhood on foot ✋ Use our Klook code for 10% off all Japan attractions, trains and trains: KLOOKGABTK #visitjapan #japanitierary #tokyoitinerary
