Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. Outty ranks every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, grouped into most popular, top rated, family friendly, food and drink, culture and nightlife, so you can build the rest of the day around your Akihabara slot.
