How to spend your first day in TOKYO 🇯🇵
Have you ever wondered what a traditional Japanese festival is REALLY like? Join us as we explore a 1000 year old festival in Tokyo!
In this vlog we visit Asakusa, Akihabara, Ginza, Roppongi and more as we explore the world's largest city, sharing all our travel tips and knowledge after 3 years living in Japan.
Step back in time as we immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of the 'Shirasagi no mai' a 1000-year-old Japanese Heron festival in Asakusa. 🏮 After a sushi filled lunch at Sushiro and a cold beer on Hoppy street, we head to Akihabara, the anime and tech capital of Tokyo.
We indulge in some serious retail therapy in Ginza, Tokyo's high-end fashion and jewellery district. 🌆 And don't miss our unforgettable dinner at the iconic Gonpachi in Roppongi, the inspiration behind the famous Kill Bill scene.
Whether you're a seasoned traveller or armchair explorer, this video promises to transport you to the beating heart of Tokyo's most iconic neighbourhoods. 🌏✨ Be sure to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay tuned for the rest of our 3 weeks in Japan!

It was great to be back! Very jealous of Okinawa, we only made it down there once and it was like paradise on earth! The beaches are better than the Caribbean in my opinion ⛱️ no plans to move back just yet but its certainly on the cards for the future!
Hey! You have made it back to jp. Feels like home away from home??? I didn't even know on culture day there were events going on. I just stayed home on that day :D.

It definitely feels like home 🏡 much more so than the UK weirdly! We knew a couple of things were happening on culture day but usually we head to a museum or two as they're all free entry on culture day!
Are you living in Japan now? Anyways enjoy japan!!

Just visiting unfortunately (but never say never 😉). Just got back from 3 weeks where we did all the classics and some off the beaten path places! Lots of videos the edit and upload!
Hi guys. I clicked because I've watched your older Japan vlogs and quite enjoyed them, but I'm going to have to be *a little* bit critical of whoever was in charge of choosing the thumbnail: I love Senso-ji - especially late at night, when there's almost no one around - but I'd never heard of that little White Heron festival, and it looked interesting (the little kids with the ceremonial kimonos...). And yet instead of using a shot from that for the thumbnail (there's enough footage in there to justify it imo), you've gone for one from Ginza. And there's like, _a million_ vlogs that all look the same, with a large Tokyo tag right upfront... guess all I'm saying is that maybe you'd have more views ( if that's something you want ) if you rethink that thumbnail... 🙇♂ ( sorry. Probably I should just get myself a cup of tea, hey... 😅) Good to see you two back in old Nihon, even if it's just for a bit. Enjoyed this vlog too, by the way 🙏

It has been amazing being back in good old JP. And we're always open to a bit of constructive criticism 😄 I couldn't find a still which I liked in time, so went with the (overused, you are correct) classic ginza pic. Our only other Tokyo video has an Asakusa thumbnail, so I thought a bit of variety wouldn't hurt (but maybe I'll change the other one to accommodate Sensoji in this vid!) 😀
