Plan notes

Useful context before you go

This source-backed plan covers two Tokyo days: a Shibuya–Harajuku day followed by a full day at Tokyo DisneySea. For Shibuya Sky, book ahead; the creator paid about ¥2,700 and noted that discount codes may be available. Store bags and camera gear in lockers before entering: the creator was told that even a small tripod and a compact camera were not allowed on the deck. At Meiji Jingu, keep to the sides of the approach rather than walking down its center, bow at the entrance and exit, and respect the no-photography instruction at the amulet counter. For DisneySea, plan an early start: the creator aimed to leave around 6:30–7:00 a.m. and arrive around 7:00–8:00 a.m. Use the park app to check and refresh Disney Premier Access availability; queue times and access rules can change. Cost ranges are broad per-person estimates for accommodation, meals, local transport, and the listed activities, and will vary with hotel choice, admission pricing, and Premier Access purchases.
