Three tips to make the most out of your trip to Tokyo. Save time by splitting your hotel into two different neighborhoods. According to Unpack twenty six, the trends in travel, the savviest travelers are hotel hopping. If I stay at the Hyatt House Shibuya, I can cover all of these areas easily. And then if I stay at the Daiwa Roynet Hotel, I can easily cover all of these areas. It just makes it easier to see more things. Second, make sure you use a luggage forwarding service anytime you travel in Japan. No need for a nightmare story carrying all of your luggage up and down the stairs. And no more physical transit cards. Open your wallet app on your smartphone, and you can add and load transit cards for the subway in Japan. You can learn more about all the latest travel trends in Unpack 26 to find all the inspiration you need for your trip to Tokyo.
