First time to Japan, very excited!


Hi guys, I am flying tomorrow from Portugal to Japan and arriving Friday afternoon very excited to go on this solo trip. I've created a map with things to visit. Just wondering if you guys have any other nice must visit places and potential restaurants to visit. I'll be staying roughly 14 days in Tokyo and than moving on to some other places. My airbnb is close to: Shinjuku City. see map here >> map (staying close to the 7-eleven.

Would be nice to meet also some other people, shoot me a message if you like to meetup.

Also, I am considering buying a e-sim through Airalo which worked really well when I travelled in Thailand before, is this a good option or is it better to buy a sim on the airport?

  • Sensō-ji TempleMeiji
  • ShrineShibuya
  • Scramble Crossing
  • UenoparkShinjuku Gyoen
  • Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building
  • Harajuku & Omotesando Kamakura (day trip)
  • Hakone (Day Trip)

Many thanks!

    14 days in tokyo is alot – do some 1-2 hour side trips outside of the city

  2. I know that (loud, I’m afraid) area around the 7-Eleven. There are probably 50 restaurants within 1000 meters of the place, so you’ll have no trouble finding ones to try. (Assume whatever restaurant you walk visit will be good, as quality is generally very high in Tokyo.)
