My Mini Tokyo Travel Guide 🇯🇵
This is a small guide of the places we went to and where we stayed on our trip. The please let me know if you have any questions! NOBU Tokyo was a highlight for me and Ichiran Ramen was a highlight for a few of my friends. I don’t eat pork, so I couldn’t enjoy it😠I will be going to the pork free ichiran in Osaka next time
✅Pros: best and cleanest country I’ve been to, train system is fairly easy to use once you get the hang of it. People didn’t look at us weird for being black which I was concerned with but it wasn’t an issue. Things are pretty affordable and it’s a great place for luxury shopping!
🚫Cons: they literally have hella stairs everywhere!!! (I lost a few pounds so i was happy about that) 😂Everything is on the small side including hotel rooms, elevators and some shops. These places are designed for you to be in and out and not stay forever inside. It’s not a big con but certainly something to get used to.
🎩Tips: we used Viator and GetYourGuide to book a few excursions. The railpass would be best if you plan to leave Tokyo multiple times
