Tokyo is no place to be stuck with an inferior map. If you only have a few days to enjoy the city, getting lost can be frustrating and a waste of time. There’s so much to see and do that what you need most is a way to get around quickly and efficiently. The STREETWISE® Tokyo Map will enable you to do just that.

Our STREETWISE® Tokyo Map is based on the subway system, the key to understanding how to navigate this unfamiliar terrain. Not only are the subway stations the most visible way to orient yourself, but they’re also the connecting link between the diverse and unique neighborhood districts. Armed with the knowledge of how the Tokyo subway system is laid out, you can get anywhere in the city and more importantly, back again.

The multicolored subway lines and Japan Rail Lines are laid out in a comprehensible and manageable manner on this map of the entire Tokyo metropolitan region. STREETWISE® has simplified the process of figuring out fares, routes and transfer points by including detailed instructions. The entire Tokyo subway map is clearly depicted so it’s easy to make your way from one point in the city to another.

The STREETWISE® Tokyo Map also includes inset maps of Tokyo’s most important districts: Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ginza, Harajuku, Akasaka, Aoyama, Roppongi, Azabu, Marunouchi, Ueno and Asakusa. These Tokyo map insets are intensely detailed with railroad and subway entrances and exits, hotels, museums, sites, major building landmarks and an address system overlaid on the Tokyo street grid to further enable you to travel with ease through neighborhoods. So whether you’re traveling on foot or by rail, the STREETWISE® Tokyo map will get you exactly where you need to go.

The funny thing is, you’ll only know how valuable this map truly is once you’re there. You’ll welcome the sense of freedom that comes with having a great map. Then you too can feel as though you’ve conquered Everest.

5 out of 5 stars Good Map - Tough City   July 28, 2008

This is a good detailed map to Tokyo - for once I didn't get completely lost. I wish I had had it on my first three visits when (among many other mis-steps),I spent hours confused on the subway where it is difficult to read station maps becasue of the serious crowds. Trust me you need your own so you can read it at your convenience. Too the architectural drawings of major buildings in different districts are a good visual aid when walking around. Tokyo is a difficult city alright and without a detailed map you are doomed.

Unless you want to carry around an encyclopedic street guide weighing five pounds this Street Wise is the one for you. For the casual or business traveler this compact laminated map is the best I've found....and I've tried too many to list.



5 out of 5 stars Don't try Tokyo without it   June 30, 2009

We travel a great deal and have to admit- Tokyo is amazing, unforgetable and daunting to find your way around without this map. Often we're just fine with whatever you can get at the local I. Not so with Tokyo, save yourself a lot of frustration in being disoriented- this is a huge city tightly compacted and not to be missed. We were there 5 days and this map was priceless- we rarely buy maps but this one made a Huge difference for us.


5 out of 5 stars wonderful map!   January 18, 2009

You have to be brave to go to Tokyo, it is very different from any other city, the crowds and the subway only add to the confusion. This map was wonderful for helping us to decipher the subway system, which is quite overwhelming. this map did a great job of getting us safely to our destination and pointing out important landmarks. I wouldn't go there without this map!

This map is not helpful as it excludes relevant portions of the city. Portion relevant as Tokyo is not a centralized city as many others, but lives on various epicentres as Shibuya, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Ueno, Asaksa etc. which have thir own suburbs bustling with life and activites of every day relevance.
If you're only interested in the main area of the city then this map is otherwise excellent.

no help-not enough information on the map, the metro stops are only numbered which meant nothing to me before I arrived in tokyo. it just confuses an already confusing city. (well for me)
