Tokyo's Top 5 Must See Neighborhoods

[@vladinstein]

Man, you have a gift! You can create that "feeling" in your videos. Don't know how to describe it, but it makes me want to do more in my life, to explore, but also to appreciate what I have now (and where I am now). The way you filmed that park, so meditative, and what you said about the greatest conversation in our lives. Made me recall some great conversations that I had walking in completely different parks. Maybe even a small park in your home town can feel like Tokyo if you are there with the right person. Ha-ha. I still want to go to Japan, of course. Cheers! Thank you for the video!

I couldn't have said that any better!

[@RypienGT]

Dave, you sir are the true hidden gem. I think I love you. Spice Grohls t-shirts 🤣

[@dylanthomas8170]

This was done unbelievably well. Really captured the mood in each area. Top quality content

[@IainMacaulayce]

I love your choices, enjoy these places in Tokyo so much.

[@lukasvogt3127]

very good video. Goinng to Tokyo this May and this has been one of the best videos I have seen :) thank you!

[@MatchaJazmin]

I’ve been planning an itinerary for my Japan trip in September, and Ive just been overwhelmed by options. So much to see but so little time. But your picks are super interesting!

[@marihove]

What did you end up seeing?

[@SamTheFelix]

Very down to earth and authentic this video. Thank you 🙏🏽

[@mikexbox1]

[@ginbejury]

Thank you. I’m going with my family of 5 in Feb 24.

[@ginangan8892]

Thank you,love your unique points

[@TheNoisyBoyz]

Jesus Dave, you keep evolving as an editor! I really enjoy your creative work and podcasts, please keep them coming.

[@fonzisalgado512]

Great video ,like chill and informative

[@mattpietrzyk8421]

Epic video. Heading down this month. Thanks for this.

[@DaveTrippin]

Enjoy

[@mattpietrzyk8421]

@@DaveTrippin have not had to a chance to go through all your videos yet however could you recommend a good area to stay to reach these awesome places easily? Staying for a month. Going to book a couple nights and then just wing it.

[@LettersfromJapan]

The day my wife and I got married, we went down to Inokashira park to walk around and look at the cherry blossoms. I remember thinking the whole area was really hip and having just been married, had visions (delusions) about moving there and raising a family. I haven't been back since, but not for wanting. Anyway, another really well done video, Dave. Keep them coming.

[@markcoycoyescueta6922]

This video is amazing.. Then I will check out these recommended places. Arigato

[@OkQuantum]

Awesome video Dave! They all look like amazing places to visit, especially the Shibuya Scramble!

[@junyank1846]

Great vid and sweet tips! Thank you so much! And Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦

[@Tony_8]

Now i've watched lots of videos and channels on Japan but truly, this channel does it so much better than a lot of what I have seen so far. Big kudos to you sir! One day, your hard work will pay off in dividends :)

[@DaveTrippin]

Appreciate the kind words Tony.

[@misowry]

Absolutely awesome Dave. I live in the far reaches of the Niigata countryside and quite simply never get the opportunity to visit Tokyo, this vid dragged me back kicking and screaming to why I love this incredible country in the first place and the urban pleasures that drew me here in the first place. thanks again!

[@spiderflux]

Top notch editing, pacing and photography. We're going to Japan in a month and this made me even more excited to go. I've been to Tokyo before and you did a fantastic job of capturing it's energy and atmosphere, plus tipped me off to a couple or three places I haven't heard of, cheers, well done!

[@DaveTrippin]

Cheers! This so glad to hear you enjoyed the vid!

[@iLike2LOOL]

That's some crazy bokeh. Your video production quality is insane!

[@DaveTrippin]

Thanks man. Appreciate it.

[@vivothehippo]

Love this video!! Great suggestions. Hopefully I can make my way to Japan this year

[@pauloiberejunior9135]

Top video man! Beautiful colors, tips and news of places to Know. Thanks for the updates! Incredible how you look relaxed and natural at the filming. Congrats

[@psiga]

New subscriber, checking in! I was supposed to visit Japan for the first time last year, but ~something happened, I don't know what~ and it'll still be a li'l while for me yet. It was neat to see that your list included Shimokita and Yanaka, since they were already high on my own list! I bet now is a great time to visit that Shibuya viewing deck, with so few people out and about. I don't think I'm even allowed to cross the pond right now, though. Alas!

[@phillywrap1]

Great work here Dave. Makes me want to check off a few more boxes next time I get down to the big smoke.

[@DaveTrippin]

Right on man so glad you enjoyed checking it out.

[@Funweaet]

This video is a hidden gem 💎 🙏🏾

[@DaveTrippin]

Appreciate that very much.

[@Drewmandude]

Fantastic work Dave! I look forward to my visit to Japan. Your videos make the wait so hard. Camera work is impressive. Thanks again.

[@cheronroggen9638]

Awesome list of places to go to. The Kichijogi park looks so beautiful. Must visit there!

[@stevenbonneville1045]

Very nice Dave... (Charles) wish I were in your shoes - awesome !!

[@CameronS437]

Hey Dave, really cool vid. Thanks for sharing!

[@DaveTrippin]

Cheers man thanks. Probably one of my most effortful I've made so it means a lot when people enjoy it.

[@chaolayluu]

Great video Dave, your content and editing has really improved since I first joined and I’m excited to see you blow up. Keep it up man!

[@Eric-le3uu]

My favorite neighborhoods in Tokyo. Omotesando - A great, sophisticated town filled with a lot of designer stores and a few hidden bars that are great places to meet interesting people. Mejiro - Quiet town nestled between Ikebukuro and Shinjuku. Good place for a run or a bike ride. Ebisu - Very good restaurants and lots of places to check out at night time. Kabukicho - It's a nighttime district. Choose your bar wisely. Always good fun though. Kichijoji - As you said, Inokashira park is great.

[@Noo795]

Great video. All places I would like to walk around. Thanks.

[@crustytravels]

Love the 'Tokyo is yours' tag, because I have a photo of the same tag elsewhere in Tokyo. Seems the dude is a bit of an artist wherever he is.

[@jacquesdemolay23]

I enjoyed your video very much, and I love Inokashira Park. I’m not sure going to Ueno Station will lead a visitor to Yoyogi Park, though. Ueno Park is there and very big.. Yoyogi Park is between Shinjuku and Shibuya (in Yoyogi).

[@JasonZAce]

Kichijoji is one of my favorite neighborhoods to visit and glad it made the list haha. Has everything, nice park, good food to eat (try out Pizzeria GG good pizza place i recommend), and all things u need tbh! Love the selection of neighborhoods you chose Dave!

[@tylerdurden6882]

nice work, especially the diting

[@DaveTrippin]

Thanks man. Poured some serious effort into this one.

[@puipinm-music9818]

You continue to surprise me with the quality of your content, and the effort you put into it. If I may ask a question (or two), do you know of any relaxing cafes or places to grab a cup of coffee and relax? I'm also curious, did you manually white balance or did your camera automatically compensate for the settings-- the shots all look to have really nice color across the board. On another note, I really enjoyed the occasional experimental cuts(like 5:09), it wasn't too frequent to be distracting, and I think it really helped solidify a style for the video. Thank you for producing such nice content!

[@DaveTrippin]

For good coffee an easy recommend is the komeds coffee chain. As for the colour grading. I filmed in a flat picture profile called cine4 with a few extra tweaks to it borrowed from your tuber Christian mate grab. Then in post processing I colour correct each clip then added a lut. The lut as well is individually adjusted for each clip. It takes time. Thanks for the kind words and support man. Really appreciate you dropping by.

[@puipinm-music9818]

​@@DaveTrippin I always love watching your videos! (I work for a videography company now, and was recently working with color correction and grading using DaVinci Resolve; I'm always interested to see what other videographers do! Thank you for answering, the effort you put in really shows.)

[@Bill-zp2mt]

Amazing video!

[@Rob_strange]

New intro. Very nice!

[@barrybondz9650]

Great video, very entertaining and your editing skills are becoming top-notch. What’s the place called in Shibuya with the spectacular view?

[@DaveTrippin]

Shibuya scramble building.

[@josephthompson44758]

I like this video!

[@JapanQuestionsAnswered]

That transition at 0:36 is sick. Glad to see you back man!

[@sdmixy]

Hell yes!

[@rick3421]

[@tonichealthacademy7587]

Shibuya Scramble for a great date spot you say...? ;)
