Travel Tips

- 2The best time to visit Tokyo is March to May (cherry blossoms), September to November. Shoulder seasons offer fewer crowds and pleasant weather.
- 3The local currency is Japanese Yen (¥). Carry some cash for small vendors and markets.
- 4A few words in Japanese go a long way with locals. Even "please" and "thank you" will earn smiles.
- 5Download offline maps and translation apps before your trip. WiFi can be spotty in historic areas.
- 63 days is ideal for the main highlights. Prioritize what matters most to you.
