2024 Tokyo Trip (5D4N Itinerary) After Fujikawaguchiko

After spending 3 nights in Fujikawaguchiko, we then drove back to Tokyo and spent another 4 nights at this bustling and vibrant capital city of Japan. Hence for this post, I will do a compilation for all the places we went in Tokyo instead of doing separate post. For your information, this is my 7th trip to Tokyo and therefore, some of the places I've been over and over again.

• Kick-off our day by heading to Tsukiji Outer Market for some street food such as Tamagoyaki (Japanese omelette) and strawberry Daifuku. We even dined-in at Sushi Zanmai

Day 7: Asakusa + Akihabara + Ikebukuro

• Asakusa - my all time favourite place to buy souvenirs, arts and crafts. I got magnets, T-shirts, tote bags and etc here.  
• Hunting for my brothers' items at Akihabara. And this is the first time we had McD for this trip.

Day 8: Sayonara Japan!

• On the last day of our trip, we took taxi to Hotel Metropolitan Tokyo Ikebukuro to catch limousine bus to Haneda Airport. If we take taxi straight to the airport, it will definitely burn a huge hole on our wallet. It's advisable to pre-book in advance to secure your seat and you can book from Klook.

OUR AIRBNB IN TOKYO

In Tokyo, we chosen to stay in AirBnB instead of hotel because I prefer to have facilities and amenities such as kitchen, living area and washing machine. And so we found this one nearby Shiinamachi Station. In terms of size, I love that it's pretty spacious and I like the separate bathroom and toilet.

However, the only thing I dislike about this AirBnB is the location where we have to walk nearly 15 minutes from the train station which it's kinda exhausted, especially after a long day at outside and you wish to reach your stay as soon as possible. 

AirBnB in Toshima City 

Date Stayed: 4 November - 8 November 2024 (4 nights) 

Room Rate: RM2,230 for 4 nights (Booked from AirBnB) 

Nearest Station: Shiinamachi Station, Seibu Ikebukuro line (South Exit)


By the way, our trip didn't end here cause we will be flying to Guangzhou for another long transit before flying back home sweet home to Kota Kinabalu.
