I Walked Across Tokyo So You Don't Have To (Is Shibuya Overhyped?)

What is it actually like to walk across Tokyo? In this vlog, we embark on a massive trek through the heart of the city—starting at the historic Tokyo Station and walking all the way to the world-famous Shibuya Scramble Crossing! Along the way, I’ll show you the absolute best photo spots for the Imperial Palace, but I also share a massive travel mistake you need to avoid if you visit on a Sunday. From ancient gates and peaceful night walks in Yoyogi Park to spotting real-life Mario Karts in the streets, this is the unfiltered reality of exploring Tokyo on foot. Finally, I give you my brutal, honest review: Is the Shibuya Crossing and the Hachiko statue actually overhyped? Let me know what you think in the comments!
