6 days in tokyo (cat temple, new shibuya mall, tokyo tower hotel)

[@SamandVictor]

Hello こんにちは from Tokyo again! 👋 curious: when traveling, are you the type to plan a whole itinerary or are you more freestyle?

[@emelie3627]

I'm definitely an itinerary person because I actually love to plan and want to make sure that I have time for all my must do's, but I try to still keep the plan flexible so there's room for detours and spontaneity~

[@dianebaker5243]

Lovely video too watch thanks for sharing 🥰🥰

[@annasee2886]

An itinerary but with lots of space to freestyle! ❤

[@cmiss2724]

Hello from Perth! Been waiting for your next video from Japan ❤ Yes freestyle for me so just thinking if don’t book the train between Osaka & Tokyo still okay?

[@nataliemistilis4265]

Hello also from Perth. I like to plan for an area with must-do's then have time to wander and explore. Planning our second trip to Tokyo next March. I am loving your videos thanks so much 🙏

[@chinhlahieu6007]

Thank you for the reliable Monday dose of chill video, cool cafe and shop highlights. Looking forward to your next ones. Coffees on me!

[@SamandVictor]

Thank you! This is enough to buy a bag of beans in Japan!

[@marypauline83]

It feels like a movie! I really admire vloggers who go the extra mile to create high-quality, informative content.

[@SamandVictor]

Thank you so much 😀

[@christinewong7235]

Couldn't agree more with you 🙌

[@clyneisenhuth]

Babes wake up, new sam & victor video dropped! 🤩

[@SamandVictor]

[@clyneisenhuth]

@@SamandVictor I have my coffee while watching before I start the workday! Always something to look forward to

[@rufex2001]

Same here for us!

[@dd19892]

I can't wake up babes, you had me do it all night with all the possible positions.

[@TheByteSizedTraveler]

Despite Tokyo being a busy city, this video gives you a sense of calm. Can't wait to go to japan next year.

[@SamandVictor]

Busy..... but calm! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@addiebrooks-m2v]

i just discovered your channel a couple of days ago and i've been binging all the Japan videos, I love how you can make the most simple moments into a cinematic experience

[@jergensp2715]

Your travel videos, especially all the Japan and South Korea ones, have been a huge help in my wisdom teeth removal recovery. They were the best calming and scenic videos that I enjoyed recovering from the surgery and I just want to give a huge thanks for the effort in these amazing travel videos and how calming they are! Thank you so much, I relied on them during the most intensive days of my recovery in bed!

[@Suitednlooted]

You guys are the only channel that I actually check in on regularly. Keep up the good work ok? 🥺👉🏼👈🏼

[@SamandVictor]

Glad you're looking forward to the new vlogs! We'll try! 😤

[@JoshDominic]

Just got married and we're going to Japan next month for honeymoon (even though we been there twice already), your videos always make us excited to go back!

[@khord]

Saw you guys during this leg of your trip at Sangubashi station to Yoyogi-Hachiman station on one of the rainy days. Was such a coincidence after having just watched one of your videos before my trip. Didn't want to bother you because you were with friends, but your videos have been great for trip planning.

[@ani9603]

Your videos are like a super indulgent treat. But without the calories!!🎉🎉

[@SamandVictor]

Hahahha love hearing this

[@ANNETTILEIN-ne9cx]

[@leniwulansari3666]

Your video is always cool as usual, detail and informative, can be used for my alternative itinerary, hopefully my plan to come back to Japan again next year, can be realized.😊🤭

[@agrestiawindianingrum1701]

i am glad i can watch your japan vlogs before i travel to japan hahaha it's really helpful, thank you :)

[@emelie3627]

Gotokuji is definitely one of my favourite temples in Tokyo 😻 I left a cat with my initials there back in 2022. I doubt it will still be there, but I'm going to look for it when I go back in October.

[@itsmhylife]

I’ve been watching your japan vlogs and I’m enjoying it thank you 🙏🏻 .And I love how cinematic your videos are and it’s really inspiring. Keep up the amazing content ❤

[@SamandVictor]

Yay! Thank you! Glad to hear that

[@vichoreva]

Thanks❤❤

[@kcsubotai]

I really love Sam's day 4 outfit, especially the hat. You two always make my Mondays beautiful, I watch at work (during lunch) and then I at home. The scenes deserve a big screen to really take it all in and to show my fam all the places I wanna go see one day. 😉

[@nancychan1467]

Love your Japan vlogs. Can’t wait for our trip in January. Thanks again 😊

[@ElenaKaylie]

Your vlogs are beautiful to watch - so well shot, relaxing and featuring everything I like: food, travel, culture and a little bit of shopping :) Your recommendations are great and well curated. I will be using these videos to help me plan my next trip to Japan ! Keep up the great work - I’m always excited for Monday / your posting day 🎉

Love the Tokyo vlog! I was just in Hoshinoya fuji for the last 2 days and your vlogs were soooo helpful❤

[@SamandVictor]

That's awesome! We loved staying there. Hope the weather was clear for a good view of mt fuji :)

[@ivycarlastories]

Going to Osaka this month. Didn't include Tokyo in the itinerary coz I felt it would be too much for a first-timer in Japan. But after watching your videos, I'm now looking forward to seeing Tokyo.😊❤🎉 Keep up the good work.🎉

[@ytwong9]

Thanks!

[@donaldsoles4259]

Your videos are so wholesome and entertaining. Love to watch, as I'm taking my family to Tokyo next year. :)

[@miyu8844]

As the one who live near Tokyo Tower, I really luv your beautiful vlog. BTW, the reason why Tokyo tower lights up only bottom half of it when full moon is to not soil the beautiful moon light with its bright light:D So much looking forward to seeing your next Vlog❤

[@SamandVictor]

Oh wow! Great area to live in. And thanks for the info 🙌🏻🫶🏻

[@atsushi_god]

[@theworldofchuckles6555]

Sam and Victor, FYI, I live in New York City and just looked up The City Bakery here and it closed back in 2019 🤭😅😂. Absolutely love your vlogs! I have been watching them as "homework" for when family goes in Spring 2025, but also as preparation for my own trip to Japan one day! 🙂

[@SamandVictor]

Then you can visit all the city bakeries in Japan! They have a lot! My roommate used to work at the one near Union Square and would bring back leftover croissants to our dorm 😂

[@lllllilyyyyyyyyyyy]

[@cboy0394]

It's like 1500 usd a night for that room.

Have you tried the coffee shop Chatei Hatou in Shibuya before? It might not be great for the vlog since I don’t think they’ll let you film in there but worth checking out!

[@Deeferdoo]

I know what you can do with all those miniature toys……..your Christmas tree! Gashopan Christmas tree is the way to go for sure. 😂

[@NewYorkerinLondon7]

City Bakery!!! I was a regular at the original in NYC before it closed. All the more reason to be in Tokyo. ✨

[@SamandVictor]

Oh what I didn’t know they’re permanently closed in NYC! My roommate used to work there and would bring bags of leftover croissants back 😂

[@TGCM]

The foot court in the basement of Toranomon hills is great.

Another useful vlog for planning my upcoming Tokyo trip❤thx soooo much. Btw, do you agree that the hotel rental has risen a lot during these few months😮I can hardly find one below 1.5K in the hot area

[@SamandVictor]

For sure… when we went at the end of pandemic we paid less than 900 per night and they used to do full service cleaning daily.. now it’s just changing towels 🫣
