Going to Tokyo next week, here’s our itinerary:
Day 01 - arrival (afternoon), shibuya, donki , and golden guy
Day 02 - Disneyland
Day 03 - tsukiji market, temple, and teamlab
Day 04 - mt fuji, and ski
Day 05 - free day or harry potter
Day 06 - Free day/Departure (night)
Just wanted to ask if there are any non-obvious things we should take note of?
edit: I’ll add some more information.
We’ll be travelling in a big group (16+) and we’d prefer to not move hotels.
The itinerary is kind of empty because we’d probably spend a longer amount of time than usual in every spot because of how big our group is.
Personally, I prefer food, some sightseeing, and shopping (thrift and souvenir shopping) which I’ll probably do on the free day. (I was thinking somewhere along the lines of Shimokitazawa?)
I’ll add:
~~1. Are there any Horse Racing Tracks where we can watch near Tokyo? (is it open on weekends?) ~~ I found Tokyo Racecourse and OI Racecourse.
- Do I need to book tickets for the Horse Race Tracks ahead of time?
16 is a lot to wrangle. Some general crowd pleasers might include:
-Shinjuku National Garden (check the day to make sure they’re open) -Kichijoji train station, which is also a mall -there’s good hiking between Mt Takao and Mt Fuji -Roppongi has good food and a good night life -Ginza is an expensive area with good shopping and good food. IIRC they also have a Delirium themed bar -Tokyo Tower -Tokyo Skytree -the Imperial Palace (very close to Ginza) -Izakaya’s are like small bars, but 16 people will be too many. I can’t think of one that had more than 10 seats. Better for groups of 2-4 -Stop at any random ramen place, they’re all good. But again, 16 people at once is probably too many -The Meiji Shrine, and next to the park is a small street shopping district
That’s all I’ve got off the top of my head
