Meals, swaps, bookings and questionsHide
Each day: cost, carry, rain swap
Day 1 — Asakusa, with an 11:45 lunch table in Ginza
- Spend
- ¥4,000–9,000 (≈ US$30–65): Sensō-ji free, Nakamise snacks ¥500–1,000 (≈ US$4–7), Ginza line ¥180–210 (≈ US$2), set lunch in Ginza ¥1,500–4,000 (≈ US$11–30), afternoon coffee ¥600–900 (≈ US$5–7)
- Carry
- IC card topped up to ¥2,000+ · Coin purse for temple stalls and fortunes · Folding umbrella · Water and a hat in summer
- If it rains
- Sensō-ji early is still fine under an umbrella; swap the Sumida walk for the Tourist Information Center terrace, then go underground at Ginza and spend the afternoon in department stores instead of the East Gardens (also shut on Mondays and Fridays).
Day 2 — Meiji Jingū at opening, walk to Shibuya
- Spend
- ¥3,500–8,000 (≈ US$25–55): Meiji Jingū free, Harajuku snacks ¥600–1,200 (≈ US$5–9), gyoza or ramen lunch ¥1,000–2,000 (≈ US$7–14), JR ride ¥150–210 (≈ US$2), Omoide Yokochō evening ¥2,500–4,000 (≈ US$17–30)
- Carry
- Shoes for long gravel paths · Small bag worn in front for Takeshita-dōri and the crossing · Cash for yakitori stalls
- If it rains
- Meiji Jingū in a light shower is quiet and green; in heavy rain skip it and go straight to Omotesandō Hills and the Shibuya malls, then Omoide Yokochō (covered alleys) in the evening.
Day 3 — Shinjuku Gyoen, then Keikyu 13:00 to Haneda
- Spend
- ¥1,500–3,500 (≈ US$11–25): Shinjuku Gyoen ¥500 (≈ US$4), JR to Shinagawa ¥210 (≈ US$2), Keikyu to Haneda ¥330 (≈ US$3), lunch at the airport ¥1,200–2,000 (≈ US$9–14)
- Carry
- Passport · Bags forwarded or at the hotel desk until you leave · IC card with enough for the airport ride
- If it rains
- Skip Shinjuku Gyoen (or only the greenhouse; the garden is also closed on Mondays), take lunch in the station, and leave for Shinagawa 20 minutes early — rain slows boarding with bags.
The solver above does not move these swaps in for you; they are the manual fallback when the forecast turns.
