Shibuya Sky is definitely a must-visit observation deck in Tokyo! Located right above Shibuya Station, it's just a few minutes' walk from the station exit, making it incredibly convenient and avoiding any detours. I highly recommend booking tickets in advance, as tickets for the golden sunset hours are extremely popular and it's easy to miss out on suitable time slots on-site. Booking ahead saves you a lot of trouble. The observation deck consists of an indoor corridor and an open-air rooftop platform. The open-air platform is the biggest highlight, offering a 360° panoramic view without any glass obstructions. You can directly overlook the famous Shibuya Crossing, with the dense flow of cars and pedestrians below, creating a truly breathtaking atmosphere. On a clear day, you can see Tokyo Tower and Tokyo Skytree simultaneously, and with luck, you might even see Mount Fuji in the distance, taking in the entire cityscape of Tokyo. I chose to enter in the evening to see the daytime, sunset, and nighttime views all at once. Watching the sunset paint the city in a warm gold, and then as darkness falls and the city lights gradually illuminate, creates a vibrant yet romantic atmosphere—it's incredibly soothing, and every snapshot looks like a professional photo. A word of caution: the rooftop terrace is very windy, so bring an extra jacket. If you're wearing a long dress, be sure to dress warmly, and tie your long hair up. If you get cold, you can always retreat to the indoor viewing area, which also has many great photo spots. The facilities are excellent, with lockers for luggage, and a rest area and restrooms. The only minor drawback is that it gets very crowded around sunset, so you'll have to queue for popular spots. Also, tripods are prohibited; you can only shoot handheld for nighttime views. Overall, the experience is fantastic, with expansive views that allow you to fully immerse yourself in Tokyo's vibrant cityscape. If you want to see a panoramic view of Tokyo, this place is definitely worth a visit.
Perhaps because it was a Sunday, there was a long line at the ticket counter.
Since I purchased my ticket here, I was able to get my ticket and enter immediately without any waiting. I was very grateful.
It was a humid day with neither rain nor sunshine, and the "Crying Dragon" was roaring loudly.
The stairs are quite steep, so athletic shoes and a drink are essential.
Having traveled to Japan many times, usually by train and subway, this time with 16 family members, we decided to inquire about chartering a car due to concerns about the elderly's walking ability. During the price inquiry process, options ranged from 30,000 yen to 70,000-80,000 yen. When we inquired about KKDay's Daiin Co., Ltd. charter service, we noticed several advantages and ultimately decided to choose them: 1. Fair pricing: While not the cheapest, it wasn't the most expensive either, offering reasonable prices for different itineraries. 2. Excellent communication: The staff were very patient in answering all questions during the inquiry process, and they paid special attention to and handled any requests. 3. Flexible itinerary: The staff would immediately confirm, adjust, and notify the driver of any changes to the itinerary or time. 4. Reputable company: The company has Japanese business registration, a business license, and a green license plate, complying with all Japanese regulations. After arriving in Japan and experiencing their service, everyone in our group was full of praise. First of all, the driver was very punctual, always arriving early and notifying us immediately upon arrival. Whether it's airport pick-up and drop-off or a private car hire, they never make us wait or take detours. They even found the closest intersection to our guesthouse for us to drop us off. Furthermore, our driver, Mr. Ohno, was incredibly kind and considerate, always offering suggestions. He helped us with our luggage and arrived at the designated spot early to wait for us so that tired passengers could get in and rest. This trip using KKDay's private car service was a truly wonderful experience, and I'll definitely use KKDay-Ohno Co., Ltd.'s services again next year! 👍
It's incredibly convenient to pick you up and drop you off at Disneyland on your birthday, and you can get there comfortably without having to squeeze onto the subway – it's fantastic!
I used this during my trip to Bangkok. Despite the low price, the connection was good and it was very convenient. The fact that everything could be handled through my smartphone thanks to the eSIM was also a big plus.
KKDay tickets require reservations, but I arrived 10 minutes late due to transportation issues. Luckily, I was still able to enter. The museum isn't large, but it's full of childlike fun and has many unique souvenirs. I really loved it! 💕
I spent a day each at DisneySea (25th Anniversary) and Disneyland, which coincided with the Japanese Obon Festival. Security was quick; I just had to take a sip of my water bottle, scan my ticket, and I was allowed through. The most important advice is to plan your route in advance and arrive at the park early to save time by paying extra to grab or buy DPA (Disney Park Accessories). Keep a childlike heart and queue for every ride and show. Bring enough cash or credit cards to make the most of your time.
