14 days in Tokyo

14 days · 67 stops · Japan

Tokyo is a city of contrasts that somehow feel perfectly natural together: neon-lit districts, tiny ramen shops, and calm shrine paths tucked between busy streets. It rewards curious travellers who like to wander from one neighbourhood to the next, with each area offering a different mood, from polished and fast-paced to quiet and local. It shines especially well at night, when the food scene comes alive and the city feels both electric and surprisingly easy to explore.

Where to stay

Tokyo, in a few questions

Is 14 days enough for Tokyo?

14 days in Tokyo gets you Tokyo end to end, two or three day trips, and days you can waste properly. The plan below spends every one of them, morning to evening, with what each stop costs.

When is the best time to visit Tokyo?

Spring and autumn are usually the most comfortable times to visit, with milder weather and plenty to see on foot. That said, Tokyo works year-round, and each season gives the city a different feel.

How many days do I need in Tokyo?

A first visit is better with several days, because the city is large and each neighbourhood feels distinct. If you want time for food, temples, shopping, and a few relaxed wanderings, a longer stay is worth it.

Is Tokyo expensive to visit?

Tokyo can be as budget-friendly or as indulgent as you make it. You can eat very well at casual places and use public transport to keep costs manageable, while upscale dining and central hotels will raise the total quickly.

How do I get around Tokyo?

Public transport is the easiest way to move around the city, especially by train and subway. Walking is also a great way to discover neighbourhood details once you’re in a specific area.
