15 days in Tokyo Itinerary

Tokyo holds the status of most populous metropolitan area in the world--a fact you'll find tangible as you walk the bustling streets and explore its diverse neighborhoods and cultures.

We've included these beaches for you: Odaiba Kaihin Koen (Odaiba Seaside Park) and Moroiso Shores. Senso-ji Temple and Odaiba District are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Get out of town with these interesting Tokyo side-trips: Lake Kawaguchi (in Fujikawaguchiko-machi), Hakone-machi (Lake Ashi (Ashinoko), The Hakone Open-Air Museum, &more) and Yokohama (Yokohama Nature Sanctuary & Yokohama Chinatown). The adventure continues: wander the streets of Ginza, get engrossed in the history at Edo-Tokyo Museum, get a taste of the local shopping with Asakusa, and visit Akihabara.
