Keep reading below to find the perfect date for you and your loved one to get your hearts racing. Keep it simple by sticking to the basics. Perfect for first dates and busy people.
Stroll through a park. Any will do, but we recommend the spacious Yoyogi Park or the romantic Inokashira Park , which even has fun couple activities like swan boats. Go to a tea house. Ditch the overdone coffee dates and opt for an authentic tea experience. Many tea houses are tucked into traditional Japanese houses or, like Nakajima no Ochaya, are located in a famous garden, so you can explore culture and cuisine to get the sophisticated vibe going on your date.
Check out a themed cafe. Visit an aquarium. The roaming fishies and adorable dolphin shows will help soothe you. Go to a planetarium. Go museum-hopping in Ueno. Museums can make for a fun and even sophisticated date, and Ueno Park has several to choose from. Visit the various museums and grab a bite for a picture-perfect afternoon.
In a similar vein, visit the popular teamLab exhibit including its new installment at Azabudai Hills for an interactive and artsy museum. Attend one of the many afternoon teas in the city. It can be hard to break the ice with just conversation. Throw some clay in a pottery class. There are several English-supported classes in the city, including a workshop for the beautiful craft of kintsugi.
Ignite your senses with a perfume-making class. Scent is closely connected to your memories, so make yourself unforgettable to your date by creating your own signature scent. Or get creative at a jewelry-making class. Make some food samples. This is a quirkier, but at the same time, incredibly enjoyable option. Create realistic food samples and learn about the craft at a hands-on workshop. Get your hearts racing in an escape room.
