Hi everyone !
My mum and I are travelling to Tokyo in March for \~3 days and I was hoping for any feedback for our itinerary below. 3 days is not really a lot of time for a full experience in Tokyo so I kinda packed a lot in our schedules and was wondering if I was too ambitious or not? Thank you 🙂
Details:
* Our hotel is in Asakusa (around 5 min walk to the station)
* Hoping to see cherry blossoms !
* Fine with waking up early
* Happy to be quite fast-paced as it’s only for a few days so hoping to experience a bit of everything
* My mum and I are BIG shoppers
* Flying in from Hong Kong so jet lag shouldn’t be a problem

**Additional questions**
I planned for around 3 hours to get from Narita Airport to Asakusa (includes travel, customs, wait time etc) and was wondering if this was enough time? Planing to take Keisei Access Express which takes around an hour.
Was actually planning to Tsukiji Market on Wednesday but found out it’s closed on that day. Does anyone have any experience with this? Are there any stalls open?
