Frequently asked questions

What to eat in Tokyo
Tokyo offers an array of culinary delights from sushi and ramen to yakitori and tempura. Dive into Tsukiji Outer Market for fresh seafood or explore Shinjuku’s Golden Gai for izakaya-style dining.
Best time to visit Tokyo
Spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) are ideal, with mild weather and fewer crowds compared to the summer heat. Winter brings festive events like New Year's celebrations and cherry blossoms in early spring.
Is Tokyo safe at night?
Tokyo is considered one of the safest cities globally, even at night. However, be cautious around busy tourist areas and avoid isolated places late into the evening.
How to get around Tokyo
Public transportation is efficient with extensive subway networks connecting major destinations. Consider purchasing a Suica or Pasmo card for easy access across various modes of transport.
Tokyo vs Osaka
While both cities boast unique attractions, Tokyo excels in technology and modern culture with vibrant nightlife, whereas Osaka offers more historical charm and renowned culinary scenes like its takoyaki.
