Tokyo Urban Baby
  • Are you coming to Japan with kids and a stroller? This is a “REAL” photo from one of our trips to Kyoto - my son’s energy was in overdrive, my daughter was doing the “drop out of pram” trick when I really wanted her to stay in it, and I was absolutely exhausted after the bullet train where I spent the whole time chasing my kids up and down the train. ✨ ✨ THIS is the reality!!!! THIS is why I created my Tokyo and Kyoto Guides! 😜So that YOU can realize your dreams of enjoying this amazing historical city and all the shrines and temples with your kids with the least stress and the most fun. You can jump off the Shinkansen with my ebook in hand, and know exactly where to go and how to get there, without having to worry. You can relax and enjoy this amazing experience!!! ✨ ✨ Click on the link in my bio to get my travel guides! www.tokyourbanbaby.com . . . #tokyoguide #kyotoguide #babytravel #tokyo #kyoto #tokyotravel #tokyowithkids #tokyourbanbaby #lifeinjapan #japantips #guidebook #travelguide #japantour #familytravel #kidstravel #traveljapan #toddlertravel #travel #traveltips #travelblogger #lovejapan #kyototravel #kyotowithkids #visitjapan #visitjapanau #japan #japanawaits #japan_vacations #japanrevealed

  • T i p !

  • T i p ! Are you planning to visit Japan with your family? Maybe you've been to Japan before, but this will be the first time with a baby? I understand how daunting it can be to travel in Japan with different customs, language, and etiquette. Let alone with a baby in tow! I have been living in Japan for 15 years and I've been through it all - trying to find the baby-friendly cafes, not knowing where to change diapers, trying to carry my stroller down the stairs at the station. The list is endless! That's why I created my Guide! To ensure you don't make the same mistakes that I have, so you can enjoy Japan with the least stress and the most fun! My guide includes the Tokyo Guide ebook PLUS bonus members section and interactive map including my latest Kyoto Guide, Japanese Baby Food Guide, Hotel Guide, Airbnb tips, how to dress your baby for the seasons in Japan, stations to avoid with a stroller, advice for catching the trains with a stroller, awesome hidden playgrounds parks and rooftop gardens, nursing rooms and locations to change diapers, baby-friendly cafes and restaurants, and much more!

I created my Tokyo and Kyoto guides after endless hours of research and my personal discoveries with my babies.

  • T i p ! If you can’t fit a soccer ball in your suitcase, you can always buy one at the 100yen shop! 😜 If your kids love playing at the park, it can be a fantastic break for them from sightseeing and walking around the city ⚽️🎾🏀 note: Not all parks in Tokyo allow ball sports (for example Shinjuku Gyoen has a strict rule and the security guard will come and ask you to stop if he sees you playing with a ball!🙀) But there are many parks such as this wonderful grass oval at Yokohama that allow it 💕 For all the best parks and playgrounds in Tokyo and Kyoto, as well as how to enjoy with a baby and kids, make sure you get my guides!

  • Most amazing sunrise at @hotelnewgrand 💕 ! If you are traveling here with kids, I highly recommend you book a room with a view! This was one of my favourite moments - sitting in bed with a cup of tea, watching the ships come into the harbour. The sunrise was perfect too - the sun was shining directly on the port and the huge “Diamond Princess” cruise ship was gleaming in all her beauty. It was amazing! Oh and if you want to enjoy some peace and quiet, let your kids watch some Japanese TV!! 😜 The Kids channel starts at 7am!! After that you can head down for breakfast and outside to the park for playtime! . #yokohama #tokyocity #tokyo #tokyoguide #tokyotravel #tokyowithkids #babytravel #familytravel #travelwithkids #visittokyo #japan #japanguide #tokyoolympic #tokyocity #citylife #tokyourbanbaby #visitjapan #visitjapanau #mommylife #citylife #luxurytravel #travel #luxuryhotel #tokyohotel #beautifullife #japanese #takemethere #japan🇯🇵
  • T i p ! We had the most amazing time at @hotelnewgrand in Yokohama! If you are looking for a hotel that is directly opposite the port, with grassy parks for picnics and playing soccer with the kids, amazing views of Tokyo Bay and the city, and lots of sightseeing spots and attractions within walking distance, make sure you stay here! ✨ ✨ I was completely exhausted when we arrived as I’d had a busy week at work, but as soon as we arrived the hotel staff greeted us so warmly and immediately took our bags and made us feel welcome. The hotel is absolutely stunning!! The room in this photo immediately became my favourite - it’s the second floor lounge and you are welcome to sit here and relax with your family and friends. I could totally envision myself sitting here reading a book while my kids took an afternoon nap in the pram!! 💕 . . . #hotelnewgrand #yokohama #visittokyo #visitjapan #tokyoguide #yokohamatravel #japanguide #sheisnotlost #girlsmusttravel #japan_insta #mommyandme #mummybloggers #luxurytravel #familytravel #kidstravel #passionpassport #takemethere #discoverjapan #visitjapanau #tokyocameraclub #japan_photo_now #mummyanddaughter #tokyo #japan
