You step into Tokyo before dawn, the city folding open around narrow alleys, neon, and the hush of a shrine path. A private guide meets you at your hotel and the city moves at your pace: a sprint through Tsukiji’s fish stalls, a quiet moment beneath the cedar torii at Meiji Shrine, and then a rise above the skyline at Tokyo Skytree where the metropolis spreads like a grid of light.
