Perguntas frequentes
Is Tokyo expensive?
It depends entirely on how you travel. Budget travellers can eat brilliantly for $15–20/day (convenience stores, ramen, sushi conveyor belts), stay in capsule hotels for $30–50/night, and use affordable public transport. The city scales infinitely upwards for luxury.
How many days should I spend in Tokyo?
Minimum 5 days to see the main sights; 7–8 days to explore neighbourhoods properly; 10+ days if combining with Kyoto, Osaka, or day trips. Tokyo rewards extended visits more than almost any other city.
Do I need to book activities in advance?
teamLab (both) and popular ryokan must be booked weeks ahead. Senso-ji, food walks, and most neighbourhoods need no booking. Sumo practice requires advance arrangement through tour operators.
What's the best area to stay in Tokyo?
Shinjuku for access and value; Shibuya for the buzz; Asakusa for traditional atmosphere; Ginza for luxury. All are well-connected by Tokyo's brilliant subway system — location matters less than in car-dependent cities.
