Final tips

Book hotel early — November for spring, August for autumn. Get IC card day 1. Walk more than you think you will. Eat regional specialties (Tokyo has its own ramen, sushi, tempura traditions). Don't squeeze the itinerary — Tokyo deserves slow exploration. Pick ONE day trip that excites you most rather than trying 3. And whichever day you're freshest, do TeamLab Planets — it'll be the most photographed evening of your trip.
