Hello friends!
My fiancé and I are ecstatic to be planning our honeymoon to Tokyo, and we’re looking for some insights and recommendations to make it an unforgettable experience. Our full (non-travel) days are from May 31 to June 4, and we’ve put together an itinerary below. We’re especially curious about what needs to be booked ahead of time and what we can do on a whim. We would appreciate any advice on what’s worth it, what’s not, and any other hidden gems you might know about.
**Preferences:**
We **don’t** drink, eat pork, enjoy classical art, or indulge in nightlife activities.
We **like** unique experiences, learning new things, modern art, trying interesting foods, shopping, spas, interacting with animals, experiencing nature, and exploring new technology.
My fiancé is a robotics engineer, so if you know any places to see interesting robots, please let us know!
**Foods we want to try:**
Street foods
Ramen
Wagyu and Kobe beef
Sushi
Fluffy pancakes
Katsu
Convenience stores
Gyoza
Matcha desserts
Pizza
Omakase
Omurice
**Itinerary:**
**Friday, May 31st:** Exploring Imperial Palace, Tsukiji Fish Market Food Walking Tour, Ginza (including Nissan Crossing, Owl Cafe, and shopping), Maranounchi for cheap omakase at Manten Sushi. We’re also considering TeamLab – any thoughts?
**Saturday, June 1st:** Asakusa and Senso-ji Temple, Ameya-Yokocho for more street food, and Akihabara for arcades, vintage games, maid cafes, and more!
**Sunday, June 2nd:** Shibuya (including the Nintendo store and Don Quijote) and Harajuku (Takeshita Street, Sanrio store, and Harajuku Gyozaro). We’ll also visit Meiji Shrine.
**Monday, June 3rd:** We’re planning a day trip to Mt Fuji. Any recommendations or tips for making the most of this experience?
**Tuesday, June 4th:** We’d love to experience a private onsen and perhaps end our trip with a visit to New York Bar. Any other suggestions for this day?
Thank you all in advance for your help and advice – we can’t wait to hear your recommendations!
