Join me on my 12 hour layover at Tokyo Haneda Aiport. Note that this itinerary is also valid for lenghty layovers at Tokyo Narita Airport. Typically you can also fit in the Japanese Imperial Palace in Tokyo during a lengthy layover but the palace was closed on January 1st for New Year's Day.

My Tokyo Airport layover itinerary was as follows:

1) Arrive at Haneda Airport
2) Keikyū Line to Asakusa Station
3) Sensō Ji Temple
4) Ginza Line to Shibuya Station
5) Explore the Shibuya Crossing
6) Walk to Meiji Jingu Shrine
7) Explore Meiji Jingu
8) Walk & Explore Takeshita Street & Harajuku
9) Walk back to Shibuya Crossing
10) Yamanote Line to Shinagawa Station
11) Keikyū Line back to Haneda Airport

Note that the Japanese Imperial Palace + Gardens can also be added to this itinerary during a lengthy 10+ hours layover; however, the palace was closed on Jan 1st in preparations for the Jan 2nd festivities. This itinerary is also applicable to a lengthy layover at Narita Airport as the Keikyū metro lines connects both Narita and Haneda.

Celebrating the New Year’s Day in Japan must be an experience. Entrance to Takeshita street was too cute. Sounds of Shibuya crossing were my favorite

[Andy]

Representing us Canadians in amazing Japan! 😁 it really is more crowded than I would of imagined whew! The temples tho, wow! For their age they look like they were just built. I am so envious! I would also love to cross Shibuya! Especially during the rush hour.

Very detailed thanks. Wish you had a ramen place recommendation.

[sonils]

Nice! Looks like you guys made the most of your layover.

[ngocnguyennie]

omg your layover schedule is nearly the same as mine. With first stop at Asakusa then head to Harajuku & Shibuya

[madhukarkaushik]

People: Japan is hyped up to be a weird country, but it's actually normal!

Japan: Strawberry sandwiches and people casually go Karting in the middle of the street (3:25 lol)

❤ed your video.

However, please advise;

1. Where to buy metro card.
2. How much does it cost you.
3. Is it a day pass or what.
4. How to get it loaded by Japanese currency.
5. Can a single card work for 2 people visiting Tokyo during layover or else do we need to buy 2 separate cards.
6. Did you buy a local SIM card at Haneda Airport.
7. From where you exchanged USD
8. Do they use only Japanese or English also in shops & trains and elsewhere.
9. Any severe language barriers, there?
10. Do buses also ply there? And, which is better buses or metro from tourist point of view.
11. Someone was telling that no cards work there and everything works in local currency there in shops etc.
12.Any other thing you would love to share.

[MiAmor.]

What is your advice for we have 3 big luggage’s for our 12 hour flight from narita transferring to haneda?

[ClavDBein]

How did you know where you where going in tokyo. Did you buy a mobile data plan to help you navigate and communicate?

[jzipagan]

Hello! nice video! but can I please ask few things for my 10 hr layover this May
1. Did you buy simcard for internet for you short stay?
2. How much did you spend in CAD? (if you don't mind)
3. How many hours should I give for allowance on my departure? (like, should I go back to the airport 3 hours prior to my flight?)
thank you my friend, greetings from Toronto :)

[Familyst]

My flight arive Haneda at 5am, but leave at 5pm at Narita.
We have 2 check in luggage. So where is nearby locker to store luggage and convenient on the way to Narita?

[wawawho_adventures]

[cuddlywannabechef]
