Tokyo for a week, would you?

A week in tokyo is fine. A week in kyoto would be better

We went in July, it was very hot and humid but perfectly doable.

Tokyo disney(sea) is great too.

Kyoto isn't an option this time as we have to fit in with my daughter, it's a good idea for a future trip though

Hi,
I have done lots of short work trips to Tokyo and longer holidays to Japan in general.
Bear in mind that summer is hot and humid and pretty unpleasant in the city. Next year is a Olympic year, so if you will overlap with that it will be very busy! My favourite time of year in Tokyo is November or March.
Anyway - loads to see and do in Tokyo and lots of great day trips out of the city to see a Fuji, Nikko etch train.
Easy to get around, super safe and like nowhere you have ever been before.

Enjoy!

Thank you for the info.

As we have to fit in with our daughter’s internship we are fixed on dates, luckily for us she was give a choice of dates and chose to go out in the Spring exactly for the reasons that you have stated.

We were in Japan this year and are going back again next year as we loved it so much. We did not manage to get to Nikko but hope to go in May. Is a day trip enough time?

Yes, I think so, it it depends how templed out you are... we went towards the end of our last trip, so we weren’t too bothered to see more temples in great detail as we had already been in Kyoto, osaka Hiroshima etc .. we saw Kevin falls, strolled around the lake, had lunch and explored a little, and that was fine for us...

We went last year for 9 days. Perfectly doable. My favourite holiday ever. Absolutely fascinating city and the food, oh woooow the food ❤️
