Itinerary Check: A Week in Tokyo, This Spring


Hello!! I am headed to Tokyo this Spring and wanted some advise on my itinerary. We are spending about a week in Tokyo and a day trip to Hakone. We are staying at a hotel in eastern Tokyo! We are basing this mainly off of [this](https://www.theinvisibletourist.com/6-days-in-tokyo-itinerary-first-time/) itinerary.

Things we would like advise on:
-Places to eat
-advise about how long each activity will take (I am nervous that I have planned things that will only take half of the day and then have nothing to do)
-locations I have left off that are must see
-overall advise on gaps/things we missed/things we shouldn’t do
-we want to do a guided bar crawl because we have heard it is hard for foreigners to get in some places, recommendations?
-we would like to do a tea ceremony but haven’t found a place, worth it?

Things we enjoy:
-nature, anime, cute shopping ditricts, museums, unique cultural experience, unique food

~Thank you for any tips, tricks or advise you can offer!~

    Shibuya/Harajuku/Shinjuku should all be the same day
