I have visited Tokyo many times and includes gems like the Parasite Museum, Robot Restaurant, Kawaii Monster Cafe and tips for the vivid Tokyo nightlife. The places featured are split up by district so you can easily do multiple things in the same area to save yourself precious time in this expensive city.
The first thing you have to remember about Tokyo is that it doesn't have an actual city center, but has huge districts with each their own city center. Everything is very spread out in this massive metropolitan city so try to at least visit a new district every day. For instance: Shinjuku, Harajuku & Shibuya on day 1. Roppongi, Chiyoda, Akasaka, Tsukiji & Ginza on day 2 and Akihabara, Ikebukuro and Koenji on day 3.
Places featured in my Tokyo Travel Guide video:
1) Memory Lane
2) Robot Restaurant
3) Golden Gai
4) Shidax Karaoke - special karaoke room
5) New York Bar - from Lost in Translation
6) Parasite Museum - most awkward and free museum
7) Hoppy - local traditional mix drink with shochu 25%
8) Quail Eggs - delicious boiled eggs
9) Cafe Crepe Laforet - one of the better crepe places in Harajuku
10) Kawaii!! Room - free karaoke room in Harajuku
11) Kawaii Monster Cafe - brand new super colorful themed cafe, try their spaghetti
12) Shibuya 109 & 109mens - the most fashionable malls in Tokyo
13) Campus Summit - annual youth & gyaru festival of local fashion, every first Saturday of August
14) Gal Cafe 10sion - meet the Japanese Gyaru fashion girls at their own cafe
15) Gonzo - cute delicious french bar in Shibuya
16) Namjatown - try the most bizarre ice-cream in the world
17) KitKat Chocolatory - the Japanese love their bizarre kitkat flavors
18) Ukon no Chikara - a requirement before a fun night out

Tōkyō (東京) is the capital of Japan. At over 12 million people in the official metropolitan area alone, Tokyo is the core of the most populated urban area in the world, Greater Tokyo (which has a population of 35 million people). This huge, wealthy and fascinating metropolis brings high-tech visions of the future side by side with glimpses of old Japan, and has something for everyone.
See in Tokyo, Japan
================
Tokyo has a vast array of sights, but the first items on the agenda of most visitors are the temples of Asakusa, the gardens of the Imperial Palace (in Chiyoda) and the Meiji Shrine (明治神宮, in Harajuku).
Tokyo has many commercial centres for shopping, eating and simply wandering around for experiencing the modern Japanese urban phenomenon. Each of these areas have unique characteristics, such as dazzling Shinjuku, youthful Shibuya and upmarket Ginza. These areas are bustling throughout the day, but they really come into life in the evenings.
If you're looking for a viewing platform, the Tokyo Tower is the best known and offers an impressive view, even if it's rather overpriced. The highest spot in Tokyo is the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building (in effect, Tokyo's City Hall) in Shinjuku. Its twin towers have viewing platforms that are absolutely free, and offer a great view over Tokyo and beyond. However, the best option would probably be from the World Trade Center Building (10:00-20:00, or 21:00 in July and August, ¥620) at JR Hamamatsucho station which, although not as high, offers stunning views of Tokyo Tower and the waterfront due to its excellent location, especially at dusk. A recent addition to the viewing platforms around Tokyo is Tokyo City View in Roppongi Hills, Roppongi -- admission is a steep ¥1500, but includes admission to the Mori Art Museum. Another good option, if you don't mind traffic noise and smell, is the Rainbow Bridge at Odaiba, whose pedestrian walkways are free. The night-time view across Tokyo Bay is impressive but the walkways close at 20:00. Also, on a clear day, the Bunkyo Civic Center (next to the Tokyo Dome) offers an iconic view of Shinjuku against Mt. Fuji (especially great at sunset), also free.
The city is dotted with museums, large and small, which center on every possible interest from pens to antique clocks to traditional and modern arts. Many of the largest museums are clustered around Ueno. At ¥500 to ¥1,000 or more, entrance fees can add up quickly.
Riding Sky Bus Tokyo, an open-top double-decker operated by Hinomaru Limousine (every hour between 10:00 and 18:00), is a good option to take a quick tour around the city center. The 45 minutes bus ride on the T-01 course will take you around the Imperial Palace via Ginza and Marunouchi district, showing the highlight of Tokyo's shopping and business center. The fare is ¥1,500 for adults of 12 years old and over, and ¥700 for children between 4 and 11 years old. You can borrow a multi-language voice guide system free of charge upon purchasing a ticket, subject to stock availability. Four other bus courses are offered, including a night trip to Odaiba, but those trips are conducted in Japanese with no foreign language guidance.
Tokyo Skytree, Tokyo Skytree is a broadcast, restuaurant, shopping mall, and oberservation tower in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan. The construction was started on July 2008,and finished its construction on 2012 of February. It measures 634 meeter, which is about 2,800 feet and became the tallest structure in Japan and also in the world. There are two illuminations that lights up the tower, which are called Iki(lighted blue) and Miyabi (lighted in pink). The observation deck is available from 8:00~22:00 and the admission fees are required only when entering the obervation deck.

Shopping in Tokyo: Where to find the most unique items
One of the most fun parts of traveling a foreign country is shopping and checking out the products that might be completely different than those in your country. Fashion, lifestyle items, hobby supplies, things only available in Japan. Shopping in Tokyo is a lot of fun! The variety of goods is amazing...be careful not to break the bank!
◆ ◆ ◆
◆ ◆ Tokyo's prettiest luxury shopping street Marunouchi-Naka-Dori
Marunouchi-Naka-Dori near Tokyo Station is - in addition to Ginza - one of Tokyo's most luxurious shopping streets.
Especially in winter when the golden illuminations decorate the trees along the avenue it's fun to stroll around.
Since the summer of 2015, Marunouchi-Naka-Dori has become a pedestrian heaven, so no cars during daytime! As a result, the noise of cars and the city has decreased quite a bit, and the number of street cafes has increased. Not only famous international brands but also many Japanese high-brand stores gather here. You'll find exquisite fashion and lifestyle items that can only be purchased here.
◆ ◆ A bookworm's heaven: bookstore town Jimbocho
With about 200 bookstores Jimbocho area is the largest book town in Tokyo. Most of the bookstores focus on old books. They also sell authentic old maps and woodblock prints - called nishiki-e or hanga. You also find a lot of old magazines, movie posters and movie scripts, which also look nice when used as interior decoration items.
Some of the bookstores have specialized in Japanese manga, art books, or even architecture related books.
In the backstreets, you find cozy retro cafes where you can relax and read the books you purchased.
◆ ◆ Ogawamachi, a district specializing in sporting goods
Ogawamachi is all about sports. There are about 100 shops!
If you plan to go on a skiing trip to Japan, don't forget to stop by. You will find everything you need here.
Of course, there are many other shops, too, dealing products other than winter sporting goods.
For example, if you enjoy running, you can get perfectly fitted shoes. Staff will measure the size of your feet and give you advice about the best option for your feet. Some shops even offer customized shoes meaning you can choose your favorite color and design!
◆ ◆ ◆
Chiyoda ward in the center of Tokyo is a great place to go on a shopping spree. Whether you want to buy a gift for yourself or a gift for your family and friends, in this area, you'll find what you're looking for!
