My 18 y.o. daughter is traveling to Tokyo after graduation (on a budget). Please show her the ropes to safety, must-see spots, affordable meals, good deals. Thank you.

Hi there,

What a great city to visit! Your daughter is going to have such fun exploring Tokyo and getting to know about the Japanese culture. For some information on what to do and where to go, she should check out the articles at http://www.holidaycityflash.com/japan/ . She would also enjoy checking out

Some of the places she should check out should be Shibuya and Shinjuku. She find more info at http://www.jnto.go.jp/eng/location/regional/tokyo/index.html

I'm sure she'll have a great time in Tokyo.

And read journals!!! I wrote one after a recent trip. One thing I learned? The train to Kyoto would have been a lot cheaper if booked in advance from the States! The Japanese are planners, so she needs to find tours ahead of time.
