Everything you should know before you book
Tokyo is too big to see in one trip, so a good first move is a shortlist of the experiences that consistently earn the highest marks. This ranking pulls the city's best bookable tours and tickets — the Mt Fuji and Hakone day trip, the 634-metre Skytree, guided food crawls, Asakusa's temple and rickshaws, and the immersive teamLab Planets digital-art museum.
Book the marquee experiences ahead. Mt Fuji and Nikko day trips sell out in cherry-blossom and autumn-foliage weeks, the Skytree and observation decks run timed slots that fill at sunset, and the best food tours cap their group size. Everything below is bookable with instant confirmation and, on most options, free cancellation.
Frequently asked questions
What is the number one thing to do in Tokyo?
A clear-day Mt Fuji and Hakone trip is the bucket-list favourite, but the Skytree, a Tsukiji food tour, and old-town Asakusa round out the essential Tokyo. This list ranks them all by traveller reviews.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
Two days covers the city highlights; three lets you add a Mt Fuji or Nikko day trip. See our 2- and 3-day Tokyo itineraries.
Is Tokyo expensive for tourists?
Less than many assume — trains, convenience-store food, and many attractions are reasonable, though deck tickets and small-group tours sit at the higher end.
