Things to do in Tokyo, Kanto: The Best Tours

May 19, 2021 Flossie Demartino

Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

I'm a spa lover.. but someone who is not easily pleased.. but Spa Damai Daikanyama never fails me!! I've tried about 4 different therapist so far and I am please with each and one of them!! Ive tried both Super Detox menu and Thermal Slimming menu and both courses were absolutely fabulous! If your feet is swelling and are tired from walking around the city of Tokyo, my recommendation is Super Detox 130 min. You'd be glad you've don't it the next day. Love love Love!

My experience here was a lot of fun! They had tons of gorgeous kimonos to choose from and gave me some advice when I was too indecisive! The dressing was really quick too! I enjoyed going to the garden the most, it was beautiful and I got some great pictures in my kimono! I highly recommend them!

Daruma was fun to make and a meaningful souvenir to bring home. The local area is very beautiful, and Keiko-san was kind enough to recommend what to do in the area.

My boy and myself can never forget the warm welcoming friendship and the delicious food delicately prepared by Keiko San and Taka San... My first visit was in Sept. We wanted to have an authentic Japanese experience even though we visited Tokyo several times. Went for it and absolutely loved it...It is definitely an experience never to be missed! And just a month later, knowing that I am visiting Japan in Dec, I immediately contacted Taka san in Oct as I remember our chat that they love bakuteh and chicken rice from Singapore, so I’m going to bring them those goodies! Without further hesitation, Taka San and Keiko san invited us to their home again. My boy is so happy with the invitation and can’t wait to see them in Dec! We met in Dec and there was so much memories from the first visit. The good chat along the peaceful relaxed route while walking to their home, the great smiles from the couple, the warm deco of the house, the delicious chef-cooked cuisine! We chatted a lot during dinner, learned new things about our families and had our matcha tea sessions! This is not something that you will get from other activities that you may find...*from my heart* Incredible friendships built within a day or even just a few hours! Taka san and family are kind-hearted people who treat visitors like family and connect people with open conversations. We learn and we grow. Team TAKA, we are one! Ps: next trip bringing my parents over for sure! (Resending using the right profile)
