At a glance
Tokyo is easier to explore as a collection of neighbourhoods than as one checklist. Combine nearby districts and give large gardens or museums their own time.
Three ideas for your trip
Asakusa
Start with Asakusa. Check visiting information, then explore the surrounding area without rushing.
Ueno
Give Ueno its own space in your plan. Compare its location with your base before combining it with other stops.
Shibuya
Keep time for Shibuya. Confirm access for your dates and have an alternative if plans change.
Common questions
How many days should I plan?
A starting point is 4–7 days. Add time for arrival, transfers and a slower pace. This is a planning suggestion, not a minimum requirement.
Can I visit without a car?
Check transport from your accommodation to Asakusa, Ueno and Shibuya, including the return journey. Some outings may need an organised transfer. Do not assume all three fit into one day.
How much will the trip cost?
Prices depend on dates, room choices and activities. Use actual quotes in the budget calculator instead of treating a destination average as your price.
