sponsored by magical trip in this video
I'm going to share with you my top
things to do in Tokyo for couples so
this actually so many things to do for
couples in Tokyo in this video I wanted
to break it all down but to be honest
with you one of the like the best things
to do for couples is just to go to a
random station and just explore because
it's just like so many cool little
things to do here in Tokyo in fact you
can use my other street food videos or
other guides but just kind of like
explore around Tokyo but today you're
probably looking for something a little
bit more specific what we're gonna do is
show you some specific spots or you can
go and take your partner your boyfriend
your girlfriend your wife or your
husband and just have like a really
chill time but before I start if you
guys want to help support the channel
then definitely check out the Paula from
Tokyo merch and recently I started a
discord channel for people who love
Japan or if you come into Japan and you
have questions it's a place where you
can connect online share information and
get your questions answered I'll be sure
to leave a link in description so
definitely check that out and what
better way to start then this spot right
here Disneyland Resort in Tokyo alright
without further ado let's do this number
7 Tokyo DisneySea
Disney Sea is one of the all-time go to
date spots for Japanese especially young
new couples and so I had to include it
on this list not only can you experience
the magic of Disney but compared to
Disneyland
Disney C offers alcoholic beverages
throughout the entire park perfect for
couples to enjoy their visit a little
bit more than the rest and I couldn't do
this video without Michael don't one of
the funnest things to do here at Disney
see is to actually go and get some
snacks and when you'll find they have
some
character and themed as snacks that you
can only get in Japan just like this
chicken curry pond look at that it's so
cute eyes are not like actually there
that's actually pretty cool right before
you guys I want to say one thing you
guys are actually looking for tips on
actually coming here then I already did
a separate video on that so I'll leave a
link in the description like always
let's try this out mmm that's good it
has a like a green curry right there
yeah it's not even that spicy at all
kind of just like a very like light
keema curry or the bread is nice and
like it chewy and soft I like it it's
really nice to you let's see what's in
here
Wow look at that it has a regular pork
inside that's closely like Dooney come
on in one so I've been enjoying a few
attractions and taking down some fun
character themed snacks and it may be a
couple beers or seasonal cocktails at
the casual restaurants I recommend
hitting up one of the fine dining spots
like SS columbia diner be warned though
seats of fine dining restaurants are
hard to come by so I strongly recommend
making a reservation a week in advance
especially if you're taking that special
someone second favorite
I mean this is nice and out no offense
also the fine dinars that DisneySea
offers set courses since were in
November they had a Christmas set which
came with an appetizer a main dish and a
dessert all right dinner has arrived and
I actually ate a little bit already but
oh well so I got the roast beef it's
just 240 grams might go on the other
hand decided to get the roast beef and
the lobster so you can actually get
Lobster at Disney senior which is not a
bad deal because if I got the food I've
got the beer zzzz everybody had a couple
I think like a third one this is
becoming an awesome trip here at Disney
sea make sure to stay until the night
because the night view at Disney sea is
also worth sharing with your date number
six lunch overlooking Sky Tree so right
now we're in the tobu hotel at Quinto
station and I don't think anyone's ever
done a video at this location so I
wanted to show you this particular spot
because it has one of the most amazing
views of Sky Tree and I could Tokyo city
skyscape in fact come here in the
evening but we decided to show you
during the day so you can kind of see
exactly how it looks like with all of
the buildings in front of Sky Tree but
what's really important when making
reservations this place is that they
make sure to reserve the window aside
seat so that you have the sky tree view
otherwise you'll probably be in one of
the tables behind me or on the other end
here there's another set of tables
that's facing the other way so you have
to be base run checking out this scene
where I'm sitting right now and Mike
goes here again I like
so what do you think in this place so
far my god I love it you can actually go
to spy tree and have a like a nice meal
like a puma
you know the floors but you can see the
countries I actually do it woman here
you can like have a clear view here is
like open space it's awesome
so rent offers reasonable set meal
lunges to traditional keisuke courses
and today I have ordered their most
popular menu Sun Ranju it comes with an
appetizer soup
sashimi a three-level keisuke bento box
rice miso soup and dessert it comes with
a little hat you can see on the first
level here a crab leg tempura
underneath here some tofu it looks like
a mother lucky one more attempt for us
and fish and on here to an epi which is
shrimp and ice like some sort of fish
cake in there like if you have some
Wagyu in there it's still a little bit
kind of cooked but that's how we like it
was in some photo she here
oh that's really really welcome Labor's
are popping from this me the Roshi is
kind of like a ponzu that's a little bit
citrusy number five Buddha amethyst Ando
garden so this is my secret hidden local
sweet spots that will definitely impress
and that won't break the bank doing so
good on what the Sandow garden is a
Japanese themed cafe where you can find
a unique blend of Japanese sweets to
share with your loved one
so this spot is actually in the back of
back streets of hot ajikko you're
definitely gonna need the Google Maps
link all of that in the description
because this place is just super super
hard to find
basically it's a five and different
little like Japanese style restaurants
kind of like a food court really really
cool date spot you can impress your girl
your man when you come here so one of
the most interesting sweets here is the
Angels teardrop it's called the Shingen
mochi in Japanese and it's served with a
soybean powder and a black sugar sauce
called Kudo meatza
it's a really really watery and you can
see right now it's almost like a balloon
ready to pop this such a unique dessert
and just looking at it even has some
gold on top let's take the first bite of
this that's amazing it's just like a
water balloon exploding in your mouth in
the Kudo meatsuit when you like layered
it on top I don't just gives you like
this really really sweet kind like
sugary punch and then you have like the
dryness of the kinako but gives you that
kind of peanut butter taste it's just
like an unbeatable combination and Maiko
got the me Tadashi dongho said meet
Tadashi dango our grilled rice cakes on
a stick
coated with sweet and salty sauces and
here you can even cook up your own tiny
dango and then they give you three
different sauces in fact you get to
choose from maybe like seven eight or
like nine different flavors but this one
specifically is like the plain should be
like a sweet sauce and you get to dip it
in just like this BAM you got a coated
mochi ball
[Music]
mmm nice warm mochi and as a bonus treat
I wanted to share with you guys this
shop just right next to this shop
actually serves a much tara misu let's
dig into this tiramisu look at that
matcha right there that is silky smooth
and that matcha strong it's a really
really strong matcha green tea flavor
all right let me show you the next
couple spot number four team lab
borderless so this next spot Michael is
actually a lot more excited than I am
yes this one we had to put on a list
because of this lady here I might just
be taking videos yeah so this is our
recommendation for a modern museum date
spot why just look at art when you can
experience if there are two locations in
Tokyo and today we're at the one in
Odaiba in Pallet Town
the tickets are often sold out so I
suggest booking online in advance we're
walking around this balloon filled
paradise of color
also it gets very crowded in the
afternoon making it more challenging to
take pictures so I recommend coming in
the morning to avoid the crowds
and ahem I arrived in the afternoon on a
weekday and this is what it looks like
so in this video I partnered with
magical trip a service available all
throughout Japan that introduces you to
local guides that will take you on trips
to find hidden gems all throughout Japan
and today we're in Osaka and they'll be
taking me on a special tour around this
area you guys know I love a sucker I've
been here so many times we've done so
many videos so I'm excited to see what
they have to show me today all right
let's go meet a local guide now number
three a sucks a cultural and street food
walking tour
oh there's Michael so since Michael is
usually behind the camera you might not
see her some of these times but what
she's here she's here so let's go meet
the guide so the first thing we're gonna
do on this tour is we're gonna get on a
rickshaw the rickshaw ride is quite a
unique experience and a memorable couple
photo opportunity many of the drivers
also speak English which is nice as they
can teach a local info along the way so
what do you think might go on the
romantic level right now yes seven Wow
doesn't take much to get her
these are the toilet this turn of
Japanese music well that's quite fun
right usually it's quite expensive but
it's like pretty nice that is included
in the tour where we go next
we're smoking now after getting some
local insights about Sensoji temple it's
time to get some Street food at nakamise
a which runs right in front of the
temple check this out the fried curry
Manju it's a bit of a fright heaven
right now oh yeah that's good it's
almost like a mini version of a curry
pond try it what do you think so another
cool thing about this tour is it take us
to get some energy cuts but the thing is
this is actually in our top ten street
food videos this will get me like a
seven or ten am ia dick level I could
eat like seven of these
and to finish it off the local guide
took us to a lunch spot for monjayaki
which is a Tokyo downtown food specialty
all right so the mangia has arrived
there's a mint I go in there it has some
shrimp it has some cheese during the
lunch the guy could even teach you how
to make monjayaki and okonomiyaki
perfect for foodies number two sushi
onaka say if you want to do something
ultra fancy and memorable for your
partner in tokyo i recommend
experiencing a know marcus a course at a
high-end sushi restaurant Oh Marcus a
means to let the chef decide what to
serve you so we're about to have an
amicus a course here at sushi you it's a
Michelin star restaurant sort of quite
excited man I just can't wait for the
food to come just in case you don't know
a high-end or Marcus a course usually
includes not only nigiri sushi but also
various appetizers to complement your
alcoholic beverage before starting your
main sushi Scott that shit'll on my diet
looks like it has some horseradish on
top it's a white fish
this is like one of their original menu
items what's on top is a caviar which is
actually their original caviar that
they've kind of like produced themselves
and have some money they have some crab
and then they have rice all on top of a
seaweed
[Music]
wow this is just a soul my soup flavor
they're basically which is a very very
nice thing for me me muscle state the
crab in there and look from the
righteous kind of rounds it all out be
like a slightly tinge of vinegar
wonderful combination
alright so we're doing it this one
together yes this is a pudding I'm lucky
to bat so it has some rice in there it
has a cucumber a sauce is a lot thicker
than I expected this is why are you
gonna luck and say like this is stuff
you never ever try because you know you
don't know what to order
after plenty of appetizers and creative
sushi time for the negative
[Music]
and there's some fish that Michael can't
eat so I eat it for her we were served
at different versions of tuna bluefish
ikura and honey rice and something I
don't even know one thing to note many
sushi restaurants only allow
reservations through hotel concierge
services since cancellations by foreign
tourists are high these days but you can
use online sites to book sushi
links are in the description all right
so we're back in Shibuya of my home
station I love this place and now we're
joining a local guy from magical trip to
take us on a bar hopping adventure and
find some hidden gems here so I may
actually know some of these places but
for you guys who have never been to
Shibuya this is actually one of the best
ways to experience Giulia through the
eyes of a local and number one Shibuya
bar hopping tour
like
yeah so where we going today all right
exciting our first stop is an izakaya
drinking restaurant izakayas are
sometimes difficult to go to since their
menu items are all in Japanese with no
pictures so having a local guide with
you the first time is a great way to
break into this Japanese culture nothing
like a cold beer and food and drinks are
included at each spot I didn't know that
I did all you drink the local guide will
teach you about Japanese drinking
culture and even a little bit of
background about Shibuya now after the
next spot Neko yokocho one of my go-to
spots in Shibuya
[Applause]
and I love here so tell me about this
place that we are and I love this place
and guess what we just ordered some meat
[Music]
so this year is while you they just
watched it you can see it's been
slightly cooked on top kinda see the
marbling still on the top of this to me
and it looks so good I believe just here
they've salted in a little bit so I'm
just gonna grab sorry the biggest piece
of me smell of love
[Music]
oh that was delicious
one thing you definitely need to try and
Japan are the drinking games which are a
trip there's so many cons that the local
guide will be able to teach you some of
them for the final destinations the
local guide will take you to a hidden
sake bar that I've never been to until
today so not only do they take you to
some cool spots here in Shibuya but they
give you some sake oh you even have the
material like sensei she'll teach you
all the things you want to know about
sucking but maybe at this point you
probably just want to enjoy the scene
that's nice
this one's from gifu which is pretty
cool and I actually ordered like a
smooth sake like this is perfect for
sake lovers just taste all the different
sake from different prefectures so it's
also nice about magical trip is that
they're booking website offers various
types of small group tours by real
locals in Tokyo Osaka Kyoto and
Hiroshima and with more than 150 local
guides available travelers can easily
get insights into real local lifestyles
during the tour to help plan future
trips in Japan and since you're with a
local guide it's not like your
old-fashioned style tours but more
casual as if you're traveling with a
friend oh it's fun being shown around by
the local guides they have a lot to
offer and show you some hidden gems that
you know you don't necessarily get to
see if you're here by yourself I hope
