Tokyo rewards a little planning for Muslim travellers. Japan is not a Muslim-majority country, so halal food is not the default — but it is increasingly available, with halal ramen and curry, Turkish and Middle Eastern restaurants, and the large Tokyo Camii mosque. Prayer rooms exist at the airports and some department stores; carrying a prayer mat helps. The transport network is superb, though cash is still useful.
Getting in
Tokyo Haneda Airport (HND)
• Tokyo Monorail / Keikyu Line — ~30 min to central Tokyo (closest airport)
Narita International Airport (NRT)
• Narita Express / Keisei Skyliner — ~60-90 min (fastest rail to central Tokyo)
Getting around
JR lines plus the Tokyo Metro and Toei subway reach everywhere; trains are punctual and frequent.
A Suica or Pasmo IC card works across all trains, subways and buses.
Taxis are excellent but expensive; the GO app helps.
