Best Time To visit
The best time to visit Tokyo is in the Spring, because the sakura, or cherry blossoms, bloom at this time. Travel between late March and early April to participate in hanami, or “flower-viewing.” Expect less humid, cool weather and be aware that prices for accommodation during this popular season will be higher and attractions will be more crowded. For those who prioritize warmer weather, coming in the summer months may be a better experience. Some visitors choose this time of year due to the plethora of festivals in Tokyo throughout the season.
What to expect
Tokyo can seem like an entirely different world even to Japanese natives. It’s exceedingly clean, endlessly exciting, and modern. It’s luxurious and cosmopolitan, overwhelming travelers with its brightly lit towers and unmatched energetic vibe. But despite Tokyo’s fast-paced nature, this city has many wellness-centric experiences to offer. Here, health-focused travelers can enjoy a wide range of enlivening Eastern treatments, mind-body therapies, and natural remedies applied with time-honored techniques. Visitors should expect everything from the ancient practice of forest bathing, shinrin-yoku, to modern and innovative skincare approaches using futuristic technologies.
Japan has incredible organic restaurants, sustainable and long-standing cultural traditions, and one of the longest average life expectancy rates in the world. We recommend taking full advantage of the holistically restorative rituals, culinary experiences, and novel approaches to health available only in its capital city.
Things to know
- Safety: Japan is one of the safest countries in the world, and Tokyo is consistently ranked as one of the top ten safest cities across the globe. This capital is comforting for female solo travelers, offering female-only cars on some trains and specialized housing options for solo women.
- Popular Sites: In Tokyo, visitors can savor the healing natural environment surrounding the buzzy capital, participate in a plethora of cultural experiences, and enjoy sprawling and beautiful neighborhoods such as: sophisticated and luxurious Akasaka or relaxing and artistic Ebisu & Meguro. Travelers love popular sites such as:
- Historic Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines like the well-known Meiji Jingu Shrine, located in a green forest in the Harajuku area.
- Famous modern buildings like the Tokyo Skytree, a structure in the Sumida area that boasts the title of tallest tower in the world.
- Japanese gardens: find three separate gardens at Shinjuku Gyoen, a park in Shinjuku and Shibuya.
- Popular Dishes: Expect an endless array of freshly caught fish, intentionally prepared dishes, and sustainably sourced organic ingredients in the high caliber natural restaurants. Here are a few dishes commonly found in Tokyo:
- Sushi: limitless combinations featuring sushi (vinegar) rice, raw or cooked fish, and an array of other ingredients.
- Soba: thin noodles made from buckwheat, served cold with a dipping sauce or hot as part of a soup.
- Miso Soup: fermented soybean soup with dashi stock.
- Unagi: freshwater eel, eaten over rice or with sushi.
- Yakitori: grilled chicken on a skewer.
- Language: Japanese is a difficult language that features three alphabets with characters — hiragana, katakana, and kanji — that look different from those in the English alphabet. The spoken version of Japanese is also hard to understand for English natives, but in the center of the city many vendors and service professionals (including luxury wellness providers) are more likely to speak English. Prepare yourself with these useful sayings:
- Hello – (こんにちは) Konnichiwa
- Thank you – (ありがとうございます) Arigatou Gozaimasu
- Excuse me – (すみません) Sumimasen
- I don’t understand Japanese – (にほんごがわかりません) Nihongo ga wakarimasen
- Do you have an English menu (英語のメニューがありますか?) Eigo no menyuu ga arimasu ka?
- Customs: The Japanese have specific conventions and social norms that can be perplexing for visitors. Tokyoites are more familiar with foreigners, but still follow many traditions that may surprise travelers. Prepare yourself by following their unspoken rules. Always being punctual, stay on the left side/pass on the right side of escalators, finish your entire meal, and slurp your noodles. Avoid pointing at people or things, being loud in public, refilling your own drink, tipping, sticking your chopsticks vertically into your bowl, (this resembles a traditional funeral ritual!), wearing shoes indoors, and eating and walking at the same time.
- Time Zone: Tokyo follows “Japan Standard Time” (JST), which throughout most of the year is 14 hours ahead of New York (EST) and 17 hours ahead of LA (PST). The time difference may be one hour shorter in the summertime due to the lack of Daylight Savings Time in Japan.
- Voltage: The voltage most commonly found in Tokyo is 100V, lower than the standard in America. The design of Japanese plugs is similar to that of North American plugs, so when coming from North America some handheld appliances and electronic cables may work fine in Tokyo. But a voltage converter will be necessary for some appliances, such as hair dryers and electric heaters.
how to get around
Tokyo has one of the best transportation systems in the world, and using the uber-clean, safe, and quiet subways and trains is the best way to get around. These transportation methods are the most tourist-friendly and allow you to explore with efficient ease while seeing a lot more of the city. Travelers must purchase a prepaid IC card such as Suica or Icoca or buy a short-term ticket at a station.
