Ultimate TOKYO Travel Guide! 

Welcome to our Japan Guide Series! Which area should we cover next?

Whoever was responsible for Sarah's picture moving over the map, needs a raise. That was perfect

I absolutely love Tokyo & hope you guys get a lot of useful info out of this video!!! AND VISIT JAPAN!! 🇯🇵

x2 Sara in one day! :)

This is a great example of the evolution in the quality TC is putting out . Hats off to the production team mostly the cinematographers and editors. And points off to Mrs Sara who is looking very comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Keep it up!

Love all the Sara lately, can't wait for Emma to be reunited after she heals!!!

I really liked your energy. It makes your video standout from others. I liked how to talk about some local specialties.

This is so going to be me when I go to Japan this year. Eating so much all day. 😂 I can't wait❤

Loved Tokyo! Absolutely fantastic. We got some spectacular footage and more importantly created amazing memories!

🙌Shah my guy! you and Sarah killed it out there! 💣💣❤‍🔥

You have a unique way of presenting the city, I really liked this clip!

Great guide! Thanks for making this video

Don't expect Shibuya Sky to look like it does in the video! There's a ton of people (mostly tourists) and you have to queue to be able to take a picture in any of the corners!

you spoil us with seera x3

Sarah always delivers

"I love that I can sit on this bench and just like, watch the people go by, and feel the atmosphere of the area" hahaha, sorry couldn't help myself. Great video, by the way!

your videos are incredibly helpful and edited so wonderfully. thank you!

Excellent! Well done covering several distinct areas👏

Oh MY GOD, SAME

The older guy who works at Richards is a major David Bowie fan. There's cool stuff there, and they do got up into the lower end of plus size (by Aus sizes, about a 20). And don't forget the department stores underground areas. Food, lots of food! There's always cool stuff down there.

Ngl, fairy floss sounds way cuter. I'd love those crepes. Btw, the editing with moving Sara's face is so funny. Magikarp taiyaki?! I must have. Hi Kim!

Constantly adding more places on my imaginary trip to Japan.

😂 This is not helping my holiday blues, such an amazing city❤

I was just there a month ago. Watching this takes me back, damn I miss it so much

I vistied Japan last year and while I loved Akihibbab. Super cool area especially at night when everything is lit up. But I have to say Super Potato is probably THE MOST OVERATED place i have ever visited. And the kicker is like 90% of these guides about cool places in tokyo or must visit shops features it. And on the videos it looks fantastic. Who wouldn't want to go to a retro game place with a snack bar? First off it is Much smaller then it looks in the video. Two there is no bathroom on that floor. Third extremely hard to find. Fourth the games aren't that great, limited selection again do to how small the place actually is and while they have a few classics half are duds. No joke before going to Japan I went down the rabbit hole and did a deep dive on Tokyo. I must have watched 100 videos and everyone for some reason loves this place. 100% loved Japan 100% would go back but stay away from Super Potato, so many better places in tokyo. Anyways that's my rant for the day. Love the show, keep it up, between abroad in Japan and Tokyo Creative I spent hours entertained and educated about Japan.

Awesome job Sarah drop a like .

You can sit and relax on the street of Tokyo at midnight. of course it’s safe!

Here's an idea that I haven't seen done before; Great places to visit within walking distance from stops exclusively along the Yamanote Line.

hmmm ... I would have visited Monzen-Nakacho, Italia Gai and Mitaka (Dazai Osamu lived here but I'm not sure exactly where he committed suicide) ... um, also, it is sometimes said that Hachiko kept coming back to the station because the local merchants kept feeding him ... I'm going to force my relatives to come with me to Tokyo Takurazuka this Summer.

This is a great video, Sarah is always good at doing such chill vibe tour videos.

Maybe do some shorts, reddit and twitter x lol but reslly enjoyed the experience of where to go and do bucket list for sure 😁

You're such an excellent presenter. Your looks and voice are distinctive and likable, and your English is fast yet very articulate. Aussie media should contract you as a correspondent. Or, the Tokyo Metropolitan Office should buy this as a promotional video for tourism.

Bum bag 😂, we call it moon bags here in Canada for those uniqlo bags

Going to Japan in 9 days! This was the perfect Video to check out! Thank you!

Always a good video with Sarah in it! She is so engaging and friendly, it feels like you are there with her. And she's also very consistant with uploads on her personal channel. She is easily my favourite now! ❤

This was a great video

Very helpful - thanks for posting this. I did a food tour through Tsukiji market and I was surprised by how many different types of snacks there were.

Sarah 💚

Fantastic whirlwind tour, Sarah-san !

big ups to the video editor!

Hachiko spot reminds me of Persona 5 Strikers! It's nice how some things are familiar, because you have played games. This video gives me summer vibes. I know it is still winter time here, where I am living. Nice Sarah travel on map icons!

Awesome! 😍 We were just in Tokyo last week - for the first time - and absolutely loved it! Asakusa and Shinjuku were my favourite neighbourhoods! Ahhh, we were lucky to hit most of these places, but we'll back to do the rest (Shibuya Sky, Ginza, Kappabashi.) Such a great job of showcasing Tokyo's best! ❤

hahahaha everyone is looking at your monster cotton candy, but you take it like a champ

whoa! new production values!

Thank you for this informative video I will use this as a reference when I go to Japan, Thank you!!!!

歌舞伎町のゴジラは、1984年公開作品で新宿を襲うゴジラを実物大の高さで再現したものです。

4:50 It's kind of frowned upon to eat while walking in Japan, but at the same time. "IF" you do...Good Luck trying to find a garbage can. All street food place will take your trash when you are done eating their food. 7:22 This is VERY rare in Japan to find a Izakaya that has private seating. Most if not ALL of them are a very Social place. Note: Raw Eggs in Japan are VERY SAFE. Japan has VERY STRICT guidelines for poultry in Japan. 13:10 Be careful most Taiyaki are filled with the Red bean paste as they are the most popular. So if you don't want that ask or check to see if they do have the custard version. 16:35 This shrine can get VERY BUSY. To avoid the crowds, come in the morning and stay away during Festivals (during these time it will be a Sea of people, good luck trying to get that perfect pic. Just think what she shows here now times that 500% more people.) 19:05 Japan is the ONLY country I would recommend to look and walk down EVERY side street. Most will have the cool restaurant, bars, cafes and shops. Also you can get away from the crowds.

I recommend the oji shrine

日本のコンビニが人気だけど、そろそろ成城石井もオススメしてみたい😄

when did you filmed this Sarah? hows the weather? Thanks

I

Nice! What about Rappongi?

Not the classic Shibuya Crossing intro💀😂

The map was super helpful. Thank you!

If everything works out, I'll be travelling through Japan (Tokyo-Matsumoto-Takayama-Kyoto-Hiroshima-Kumamoto-Nagasaki-Osaka) with my two daughters for 21 days next year. With regard to Tokyo, what would you recommend if you have 3 full days for Tokyo (not counting the two days for travelling to and from)? One day is planned for a day trip to Kamakura (Buddha & beach). We have the option of a day trip to Nikko, but that would mean we would have to squeeze the sights/our points of interest in Tokyo into one day. Would Nikko be a must see or should we rather spend two days working through our Tokyo to-do-list (Nintendo shop, Kirby cafe, Gundam factory etc.)?

Hi how did you manage to be alone on shibuya sky???

Much love for Shimo.

I heard about Super Potato before I came to Japan and added it to the list of things to do/see while in Japan. Didn't get to everything (I had a lot of stuff on my list 😅) but man as a gamer all my life I'm so glad I went to Super Potato Such an amazing shop for any video game fan. Was so tempted to buy an N64 while I was there 😂. Don't think we have anything like it here in New Zealand

How much were the suitcases at Muji, if you remember? I'm going in November and I'm debating on just buying suitcases there for shopping!

how does the camrea barely move an inch? legendary camera operator.

What izakaya was that in Shinjuku?

A question also for the community: What can I do with children (9 & 13) between 7 and 10 pm in Tokyo in summer? What tips and experiences do you have for me?

Sarah...you are an amazing Aussie person and typify what us Aussies are all about......educated, respectful, polite, accepting, confident, etc....do I need to go on. I so wish my early 20s Son was associated with someone like you as opposed to the women he is.......ill just leave it there. Congratulations on who you are Sarah.!

we legit just stayed in shinjuku for a week just over 2 weeks ago...so much fun

Even as time passes and the surface of the city changes, nothing remains the same in terms of what lies at the root of Japan's unique culture. The common root of the originality of Japanese culture is the uniqueness of its geopolitical location and the influence of its natural environment. Even if Japanese people import culture and knowledge from abroad, they are not dominated by it. After a certain period of time, they select and discard the content, integrate it with their own culture, make improvements, and eventually create a new style. This is the result of adaptive behavior for survival in the unique natural environment of the island of Japan, which is completely different from the natural environment of the continent, and was born over a long period of history. Japan's original country name "NIPPON”means "the land under the sun" , but another name is "YAMATO ,WA” , meaning “Peacefull Harmony among People and Nature”.　So Japan's name means “the Land under the Sun” and” the Land of "Great Harmony of People and Nature,” The history of Japan is very old, about 2,000 years since the Emperor's reign, but humans began to live in villages and communities in this island nation about 14,000 years ago, during “the JOMON pottery” culture.　(That's 30,000 years ago, if you count the Neolithic period.) Surrounded on all sides by the sea and geographically isolated from the Eurasian continent in the Pacific Ocean, this island nation has a warm and humid climate, and because it is a volcanic island, it is blessed with abundant underground clear water resources, diverse vegetation, and fishery resources. For this reason, people have lived here for tens of thousands of years, enjoying the abundant nature and living in peace with nature. Since ancient times, the people of this land have respected human harmony and have lived in peace by working together as a group. However, while the natural environment of this island nation is rich to live, it is also harsh to live and has both light and dark sides. They have shared and enjoyed the blessings of nature by pooling their wisdom and collectively overcoming numerous severe and harsh natural disasters, such as frequent volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, typhoons in summer, heavy snowfall in winter, and plagues caused by the proliferation of bacteria due to the warm and humid climate. This is because this island nation has a harsh natural environment that cannot be overcome by a single person. Individual power is too weak to face the onslaught of nature, which can destroy the wealth we have built overnight. Therefore, They believed that many people should suppress their egos, avoiding confrontation, and work together to create a livable environment and maintain public cleanliness, and then work together to prevent disasters before they occur and to restore the environment immediately after they have occurred. They believed that this is the most wise, efficient, and rational way to maintain peace and freedom in each other's lives, this would bring about better results rather than to create more chaos by insisting on each other's selfishness. because of the environment in which disasters frequently occur that cannot be resolved by individual power alone. And this thinkings have given rise to Japan's unique teachings, culture, and behavior. For example, it is fundamentally connected to the Japanese mindset of "Behaving in a way that does not bother others in public places," "Helping each other if someone is in trouble," and "Not doing bad things even if no one is watching." And one of the teachings of the ancient Shinto religion, "Purify yourself (kiyome) by getting rid of Defilement (kegare)," has been taken over today as a basic manner to "Not pollute even in public places," to “Always keep the environment clean”, and to make everyone, regardless of status or gender, feel comfortable equally. This is also the wisdom of living in the drastically changing natural environment unique to the island countries. And this wisdom has been formed into a unique Japanese culture over a long period of time. The ancient name of Japan, "YAMATO" or "WA" (peaceful harmony between people and nature), represents the wishes and reality of the people who have been trying to survive in the rich and harsh natural environment unique to island countries, which is different from the dry and stable land of the Eurasian continent. And it is in this ancient Japanese country name "WA,YAMATO" that the essence of Japanese culture, the origin and secret of its unique culture, which is very different from the cultures of other Asian countries on the continent, is hidden.

I have question about internet there. Which should I get? sim card or a Wi-Fi dongle?

Okay, I follow you xD

Unknow to a lot, there is a MUJI in Copenhagen.

Greetings from Switzerland. It would be kinda nice to have a Googlemap where you would pin point all the locations you mention and place you recommend. I know that some RU-vidrs do that on their channel and it's quite handy. Anyway, thanks for this great video.

does anyone know the song that starts at 11:38 ??? Its so nostalgic but I cant remember from where

Great job Sarah!...but still miss Emma

A word of advice to anyone who is considering going to Japan... GO! GO NOW! The exchange rate is incredibly favorable right now, especially from the US Dollar $. It is like everything is discounted 30% off (accommodations, food, trains, etc.)

How did you get Tokyo sky to yourself?

Great choice to host this video package.

Fun fact: Lululemon has this name just because the founder thought it was funny how japanese people have difficulty pronouncing the letter L.

Super good the camera #2

Great Vid, i'm there in 3 weeks so saved heaps of spots

I'm thinking Takeshita dori is way less popular than in the past.

it looks like you filmed this some time around june 2023 because i was there around that time and recognize all those sixtones and meguro pics that were just there 😂

Don't get the cotton candy. You are eating a 1/2 cup of sugar that is a sticky mess. There are better food options than that.

Wow

Thank you very much for your posting! Zelda Gacha 👍

"I've got my own private space" the camera person: 👁👄👁

Where shiori at?

Did Ginza boo when Gojira won the Oscar?

how did u get my uncle inside that yummy piee of bread!? lol

When was this recorded ?? Lol tokyo is crowded af

when was this recorded?

where Jordan at?

I am asking to come to your country

The maid cafe touts in the streets seemed to actively avoid me as a foreigner. They must have had some awkward experiences.

下北沢は、カレー屋さんの街でもある。CoCo壱番屋より美味しい。

Love videos with Sarah (missing Emma though 😢)

i also LOVE TOKYOO, and I so so so so hope to get the internship I applied for, to live in Tokyo for 6 Months

Don't be afraid to walk down a small side street. Haha, unless you're in Kyoto because then you'll get fined.

I hate Shinjuku station! I always get lost in there.

It's not a Pretzel.. 😄 you should know.. it's ok to be educational ❤11:44

Is there a toilet in shibuya sky?

soy donut?

appreciate the effort but the recommendations seem very generic
