Tips
Good to know
- !Travel from the airport to central Tokyo is not included, so you need a bundle with airport access or a separate ticket
- !If you enter Japan through automated gates you may not receive a stamp and cannot buy at counters, so get a stamp at a staffed counter during immigration
- !The JR Yamanote Line is not covered, so choose routes you can complete by subway alone
- !Since it is time-based, starting it in the evening after reaching your hotel wastes less time
