PRATİK BİLGİLER

Gitmeden bilmen gerekenler.

Turist tuzağı, SIM kart, nakit/kart, taksi ve güvenlik — beş soruda şehrin gerçeği.

Biggest tourist mistake

Getting trapped in the Shibuya-Shinjuku neon and never seeing quiet quarters like Yanaka or Shimokitazawa.

SIM card & internet

Tourist SIM/eSIM vending machines at the airport; Ubigi/Airalo eSIMs are easiest.

Cash or card?

Card use has grown, but ramen ticket machines and small izakayas run on cash; 7-Eleven ATMs are the reliable ones.

Taxi & transport apps

Spotless but expensive; trains solve everything — mind the last one around midnight.

Safety

The world's safest metropolis; lost wallets come back. One rule: follow the rules.

CITY PULSE

TRAVEL GUIDE

İçeriden bilgiler.

Arama motorunun ilk sayfasında bulamayacakların.

Must Do

  • Get a Suica/Pasmo at the airport; all transit becomes tap-in.
  • Try one omakase sushi; lunch menus cost half the evening price.
  • Silence your phone on trains and don't talk — everyone does.

Avoid These

  • Tipping — it confuses, even offends.
  • Eating while walking — a real faux pas.
  • Missing the last train (~midnight); night taxis are brutal.

Tips

  • 7-Eleven and Lawson ATMs take foreign cards without drama.
  • Google Maps shows station exit numbers (A1, B2) — memorise before you alight.
  • Small places still love cash; keep yen in your wallet.

Hidden Gems

  • Shimokitazawa: the bohemian vintage quarter tourists skip.
  • The Nezu Museum's zen garden — Aoyama's hidden oasis.
  • Kagurazaka: a stone-alley former geisha district, still alive.
