Tokyo, neon lights, temples and Mount Fuji

Tokyo changes its face from one district to the next. You go from the calm of a Shinto shrine to the crowds of the Shibuya crossing, then to alleys of izakayas where diners sit elbow to elbow.

Plan for Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa, Meiji Shrine, Shinjuku, Harajuku and Akihabara. Gardens and markets complete the picture.

Mount Fuji is within reach on a day trip from Tokyo. The tour to Fuji and Hakone, returning by bullet train, combines mountain views, a lake and a ride on the shinkansen.
