Tokyo, Japan: Historic City with a Modern Skyline

Tokyo is home to an array of neon boulevards lined with ultramodern buildings, high-tech shopping centers, and the world’s most Michelin-starred restaurants. But there’s a historic side to the city as well, including a number of museums, temples, and centuries-old gardens. On this 7-day Tokyo vacation from Friendly Planet Travel, you’ll see both sides of the city on a guided city tour and by forging your own itinerary. We’ve included some highlights below; click here for more details. This vacation includes:

  • Round-trip airfare from Los Angeles (LAX) via Singapore Airlines (nonstop jet service)
  • 5 nights’ superior first-class accommodations at 4-star Hotel New Otani Tokyo or 4.5-star Hotel Okura Tokyo
  • Buffet breakfast daily
  • Arrival and departure transfers via airport bus
  • A city tour of Tokyo with a local guide
  • See a full itinerary

Tokyo City Tour

On your first full day in Tokyo, you’ll take a half-day guided city tour that visits some of Tokyo’s most famous sites, including Tokyo Tower, a 1,093-foot red-and-white structure that’s modeled after the Eiffel Tower. Next is the Imperial Palace, where the emperor of Japan resides. Visitors are not allowed inside, but you can wander through the gardens and see the remains of the 15th-century Edo Castle, once home to samurai warriors. You’ll see the brightly colored Asakusa Kannon Temple en route to Nakamise-dori Street, a popular shopping-and-entertainment district, where you’ll have plenty of time to browse boutiques and grab dinner before making your own way back to the hotel.

The next 3 days are yours to explore Tokyo at your leisure. There are optional tours available, including a full-day tour of Mount Fuji and the town of Hakone (about $165/person; includes lunch), and a full-day tour of the city of Nikko (about $145/person; includes lunch). You’ll be staying in the world’s largest metropolitan area, so there won’t be any shortage of things to do, see, and eat. For some perspective on Tokyo’s sheer size, consider a trip to the observation deck at the Tokyo Sky Tree, which is nearly twice the height of Tokyo Tower.

Back on the ground, the city’s comprehensive public-transit system makes getting around easy. Hop on the train for a quick trip to see the spectacle of Tsukiji Market, the world’s largest and busiest fish market, and then pay a visit to Zoetrope, a bar in the Nishi-Shinjuku neighborhood, where you can toast to your trip with 1 of 300 varieties of Japanese whiskey.
