It was a wonderful video with a very nice family. Thank you for coming to Japan. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Much love and thanks to all of you☺️
We adore your family and your work. We visited Tokyo this past April, while we were on a 3-night pre-cruise tour. We loved Japan so much, we are going back next April on another cruise. We are looking forward to the location links. Keep up the great work and stay safe.

Please remember to remove your shoes when entering a Japanese apartment or hotel room, they usually provide you with slippers.

My wife and I are considering a trip to Japan and we happened to come across this video. It was so refreshing to see such a wonderful family. Thank you for the ideas and a few minutes of entertainment!!! New subscriber.
Love the content and the girls have such an awesome experience! Keep up the great work!
Hello! I loved your video. Going to Tokyo next month and have a few of these locations on my list. Can’t wait to visit Shibuya. Thank you for sharing!😃
Awww, I was so excited to see that this was posted... ironically JUST after I'd left Japan! You'll be happy to know that KZread pushed and pushed and pushed this video to me, but I had minimal opportunities to watch anything. I'm super excited to check it out now!!! From the intro, it looks like we've done a few of the same things :) AWESOME!
Hello! I just happened watch your video and I said to myself awww that family is so beautiful and wow in Tokyo….. look like a lot of fun! I enjoyed that. It’s my first watched on your channel! ❤️
What a beautiful family ❤. I love how close their relationship is.
Glad you came over to here to visit! We hoped you enjoyed your stay and will come back to see more of this beautiful country!
Browsing KZread this bank holiday, here in London 🇬🇧 and came across your channel. Wow, what a ‘BRILLIANT’ vlog. So agree with alot of the comments made about your wonderful family. Definitely subscribed to your channel. Right, alot more of your vlogs to see.
Omg!!! I just discovered your channel, you family is beautiful and your girls are fabulous and funny, I enjoyed your trip to Tokyo.
Always enjoy watching 👀
I laughed out loud when you missed the tea cup! 😆Our Japan visit last fall went by in such a blur-- it's fun to relive some of the things we did through this video. Love your shots of the Shibuya crossing. The pan up was great!
Thanks for this! Planning a trip with the fam and these vlogs are so helpful! Also My daughter loves your daughter's purse, where from?
Woo a new video!
I was in Tokyo in 2018 and their 7-11 stores are definitely not like the ones in the USA. The food is prepared well like a diner and packaged plus it is a grocery store.
The girls are really big ❤ watching them grow from little people who were scared of 🐪 has been great
What's up Top Flight Family!! Great to see you guys!! This trip was super dope! I've always wanted to visit Japan, specifically Tokyo! It always looked alien to me because nothing is in English everywhere I looked but it's content like you guys put out that always makes me more comfortable with giving a city a try! It looks like y'all had a great time! Sean and Ella were almost too tall for those beds at he hotel!!😆 I'm glad Serge got to make it, it was cool to see the girls reaction and run to daddy, that was precious. I hope all goes well with the clean up at your home from the flood😟 And by the way Carmen, you were rockin that bucket hat with major respect...True New Yorker style😊And again thank you for the wonderful food tours! Shout out to Sean and Ella for their priceless reactions and facial expressions to rate the food tastes!!😆😆😆 Thank you for another super awesome video! Can't wait to see where you guys go next!! and as always, Be well, be safe and Cheers!!!
Love that I caught this.. planning a 12 day holiday stay.. Tokyo > Osaka > Kyoto .. these 2 vlogs are so clutch lol been planning since last March 😂
I was there last fall. Going back next week!
This vlog so fun to watch
wonderful 💛💙💚❤️💜🇹🇹.
Hey family. Sorry about the flooding. The unexpected challenges in a home. Glad Serge was able to join you quickly. Sean and Ella’s reactions to the foods are hilarious. They are a bit more daring than me. Wonder why you couldn’t sit at the counter on your date night? Did you guys ask or just took it for whatever it was? We were on the MAS 1.5 Bermuda cruise last week and was hoping to experience local street food. This was a different port to accommodate larger ships. Was all tourist restaurants. And at the beach the usual burger fries hot dogs 🌭 mozzarella sticks and chicken fingers. So very disappointing. We ported right In Hamilton in 1992 but was a smaller ship. Literally walked off the ship, crossed the street and was in local town. That was amazing. Great vid as usual. Thanks so much for sharing and see you next video.
Your girls are brilliant, really make me laugh ❤
Great video love the dog cafe
Loved it u guys travelling japan😊 Kids funny huh dude 😅😅
I’m Japanese living in Japan . I think when we reserve sushi restaurants for special day, we prefer table than counter.Sometimes we need extra money for sitting table.Maybe that’s the reason. I hope you could have counter seats!
Try having someone who speaks Japanese call and request a seat at the counter the next time you make a reservation. Forget about online reservations. Personally, I like sitting away from the counter cause I feel the need to say "oishii" to the chef for each course. I just want to relax and eat. Lol.

You are so right. I do the same when I travel. I always let the hotel receptionist call for me. I realize not all country deal well with online reservation.

I know I wouldn't just accept something i paid for and didn't get. I probably would speak to someone who speaks english to rectify the situation or use the phone to translate. Best of luck next time.
お父ちゃん。 娘達の笑顔が、生きがいだね😋 どうか、素敵な日々を😁😋👍🇯🇵
Thanks for these awesome videos. Could you share which car service you used from airport to hotel?
Wonderful video
another great video, loved the part when serge showed up.
I was surprised how fun the dog cafe looked.
Amazing video
Nice place in Tokyo.
Last time we went to Japan, we went to a sushi place in Roppongi and all you have to do is ask for counter, they provided us with counter…a lot of restaurants use counter for single patrons some times.
Nice to meet you, Takeru. How is your trip to Japan? I think I ate a lot of delicious food, but my recommended dish is tonkotsu ramen. okonomiyaki. tonkatsu. gyudon. katsudon. yakisoba. soba. Yakiniku. Try it if you have the chance! Have a nice trip☆
We are under a winter storm warning and all bundled up. So, contemplating booking a trip to see Tokyo for the 1st time. It would be awesome to visit Tokyo so we can eat pizza and burgers 😂.
Ok. So I totally cheered out loud when Ella finally won at the claw game! LOL #notashamed
Counter seats were definitely reserved. Everyone wants to sit on the counter
I hope you guys bought lots of kuji (toy lotteries in Japan) ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Japan trip. Let's go to Japan soon! toko channel
eating and shopping - sounds about right - that's what we end up doing in Japan with milady ;-)
日本を楽しんで下さいね。
I love your girls pocketbooks. Where did they get them? Thanks

I've NEVER seen anyone win those claw prizes. Well done... Now they're ready for their own dog.
What month did you guys go? I’m undecided and nervous about which month to go because of weather 🤔
If you want an amazing omakase experience in Tokyo - highly recommend Seamon Ginza
You and the girls are so beautiful!
Surprised by Reality 😮

You guys in the Tokyo subway was like us in the New York subway 😂

Also I laughed out loud when the water poured straight on the counter. That would have been me and I would have walked away drinkless 😂
What brand is the white shirt you are wearing? No wrinkles!
It's so clean t and green there. Im wondering if the dogs won't be affected wmotionally with just temporary bonding. if only they could speak.
If those seats at the sushi bar remained unoccupied for your entire meal, I would have been unhappy too.

Yes, I noticed that too. Gave me some bad thoughts...
In Japan you take off your shoes upon entering.the home. Also you do not talk on the trains. That's how you eat noodles you slurp. Did you go to the Tokyo Sky Tree?

I post solo trips on trains and ferries in Japan on my KZread channel. Thank you for the very nice video. Did you enjoy your trip to Japan? It was fun to see Japan from a foreigner's perspective.
Japan always looks so awesome, but I assume there are "bad" places like everywhere else but man, ill make it there some day
Any really good sushi place in Japan requires specific reservation in definitely in advance at counter .. 😅

Yep, like we explained in the video, we had reservations, and we even pre-paid for the meal online. So we thought that would get us a seat the counter. But clearly there's something else you need to do that wasn't explained anywhere on the website, hence the confusion. It would just be nice if the restaurant made things clearer to avoid this kind of disappointment.
Where are the homeschool videos? I'd love to learn how you maintain home education and travel
I thought u would stay at Aman
Did Serge eat the burger upside down??

So many commercials now 😭
I like some of your other videos better. Not the kind of things I would want to spend time at in Tokyo.
have u plane to coming trip South Korea? Korea also not good at English but many people know basic English and even part time worker can't speak English but order food on English understand it
You get annoyed how bad the MTA is after going through the subway system in Japan As far as reservations go, have the front desk of your hotel call the restaurant and confirm and have them ask if you can sit at the counter.
Great. But couldn't do the dog thing. Not me.
Tokyo is a boring city.
