Comment “App” and I’ll DM you the app link + how to book + 3 more Sancha spots🇯🇵

Many tourists have never heard of this app, but Japanese locals use it to pick where to eat. I’ll send you the Tabelog app link, how to book Sancha Yukitsubaki (the izakaya in this video), plus 3 more Sancha spots you can book online.

I’m a local guide in Tokyo, and this is the one I use to pick restaurants for my guests. Last month I took a guest to Sancha Yukitsubaki, a tiny izakaya in Sancha, and they said it was the best meal of their trip.

Eat where locals eat.

Nezu street food is coming soon⛩️ Follow so you don't miss it!

📍 NEZU SHRINE (根津神社)
A row of red torii gates leading up to a small Inari shrine.
It's nothing like the scale of Fushimi Inari in Kyoto.
But it's free, it's rarely crowded, and it's in central Tokyo.

🚃 HOW TO GET THERE
5 min walk from Nezu Station, Chiyoda Line.
Also 5 min from Sendagi Station or Todaimae.

🏛️ WHY IT MATTERS
The current buildings date from 1706, built by the fifth shogun.
Seven of them survived the earthquakes and the war, and are now
designated Important Cultural Properties. That's rare in Tokyo.

🌸 BEST TIME
Early morning, when the gates are empty.
Late April for the azalea garden — around 3,000 bushes, paid entry in season.

Terminal 2 is ANA's. If your international flight is ANA-operated, this is where you land. Everything, in the order you'll need it:

📶 Wi-Fi & SIM rental — Up to 2F (5:45–23:00)
💱 Currency exchange — Up to 2F or 3F.
🚌 Buses — down to 1F, buy tickets before you go outside
🚉 Trains — all the way down to B1. Both lines are there
🚆 Keikyu Line → Asakusa, Ginza, Skytree
🚝 Tokyo Monorail → Hamamatsucho, then Shibuya, Shinjuku, Harajuku

Stuff I didn't have room for:

・The exchange thing catches people out. T2 has no counter in international arrivals — the one upstairs on 3F runs 6:30–22:00, and there's a 24-hour coin/note machine down on 1F
・Airport rates are never the best anyway. If you have a card, ATMs at 7-Eleven usually beat the counters
・Buying an eSIM before you fly is cheaper than renting at the counter — set it up on the plane
・Mobile Suica is the easiest option here. If you want a physical card, sort it at the station downstairs
・The Keikyu station is shared with Terminal 1, so the platform says "Terminal 1·2" — you're in the right place
・Connecting to Terminal 1? There's an underground walkway, no bus needed. Terminal 3 is a free shuttle or one stop on the train
・Trains stop around midnight. Land later and it's a bus, a taxi, or waiting it out — but note the T2 observation deck closes at 22:00, unlike T3's

📌 Save this before you fly — airport Wi-Fi is not the moment to go looking for it.
📤 Send this to whoever you're travelling with.
🛫 I'm covering every terminal at Haneda and Narita — same walkthrough, same format. All on my page.

Comment "TOKYO" and we'll send you the full tour details.

10 stops, one local guide, and the stories most visitors walk right past. Here are 3 of them 👇

🍶 Sake barrels at Meiji Jingu: hundreds of them, all donated to the gods by breweries across Japan. Every kanji on them is the name of a real sake. Find one you like and your guide will tell you where to actually buy it.

🐕 Hachiko: the dog who waited 10 years for his owner at Shibuya Station. Today he's Tokyo's #1 meeting spot, and the tour tells you the full story behind the statue.

📸 Purikura photo booths: huge eyes, glowing skin, and doodles all over your pics. This does NOT exist back home, so make sure you try it before you leave.

The other 7 stops? You'll find out on the tour 😉
