Destination & City Travel Guide
About Tokyo
Tokyo is too large for a single-centre itinerary, so choose connected districts. Asakusa pairs Sensoji with older shopping streets, Ueno has museums and park paths, and Meiji Jingu provides a wooded pause near Harajuku and Shibuya. Narita Airport is far east of the city rather than in central Tokyo. Arriving visitors can use express rail or buses, but should decide first whether their accommodation is near Tokyo Station, Ueno, Shinjuku or another interchange.
Read more about Tokyo
Tips for travellers from India
Ueno is a useful base for a Keisei arrival from Narita and visits to its museums; Tokyo Station suits onward Shinkansen travel, while Shinjuku puts the western city close by. The Narita Express and Keisei routes serve different stations, so select the train for the accommodation district rather than taking the first express advertised. Narita is also a separate airport from Haneda, which matters on a connection involving two Tokyo bookings.
Air India’s Narita check-in is in Terminal 2 on the third floor. The airport has more than one rail stop serving its terminals, so use the terminal information with the train destination. Asakusa and Ueno make a sensible eastern-city pair, whereas Meiji Jingu, Harajuku and Shibuya form another day. The Toyota Arena Tokyo opened in the Odaiba area in October 2025, adding a sports and entertainment venue that needs a separate waterfront-area trip. An event there should not be fitted between Asakusa temple visits without considering the rail transfers. Sensoji’s approach through Nakamise is a shopping street as well as a route to the temple, while Ueno’s museums have individual admissions. Choose a particular collection rather than assuming that one park ticket covers every museum. Narita’s distance makes the final airport-train reservation part of the day’s itinerary.
Best time to visit Tokyo
March to May or October to November, about 10–24°C, for walking districts.

Airport Information & Terminals
CNS: Cairns airport. Cairns airport transfer should be matched to the exact hotel, suburb or meeting area. Rail can work well for light luggage, but late arrivals, winter weather and family baggage often make a direct cab or booked transfer easier.
NRT: Tokyo airport system. Tokyo can mean Haneda or Narita. Haneda is closer to the city; Narita needs a longer train or road transfer. Airport choice should match hotel area and arrival time.
