Reise-FAQ zu Tokyo
Do people speak English in Tokyo?
Signs and menus in tourist areas are usually bilingual; translation apps cover most gaps in local restaurants. Learning a few polite phrases in Japanese goes a long way.
Is Tokyo expensive?
Hotels vary widely; convenience-store meals, ramen shops and set-lunch menus keep daily food costs low. Tokyo is often cheaper day-to-day than London or New York.
Which airport should I fly into?
Haneda (HND) is closer to the centre (~30 min); Narita (NRT) has more long-haul options (~55 min by Narita Express). Both are well connected by train.
How much does an airport transfer cost?
Narita Express to Tokyo Station is about ¥3,070 (~US$20). Keisei Skyliner to Ueno is ¥2,570. Haneda Monorail is ¥500. Taxis from Narita cost ¥25,000+ (US$165+).
How many days do I need in Tokyo?
Four to five nights cover the icons and one day trip (Kamakura, Nikko or Hakone). Seven nights let you add a Shinkansen hop to Kyoto.
Is Tokyo family-friendly?
Very — TeamLab Planets, Ueno Zoo, DisneySea and Odaiba's Miraikan science museum are easy family half-days, and the transit system is safe and stroller-manageable.
What's the best area for a luxury stay?
Aman Tokyo, Bulgari, The Peninsula and Four Seasons cluster near the Imperial Palace with skyline views; boutique ryokans in Ginza offer a quieter high-end option.
Can I visit Tokyo on a budget?
Business hotels near JR stations (APA, Toyoko Inn) are excellent value, and convenience-store meals, ramen bars and coin-laundry longer stays cut costs sharply.
