Ring in the New Year in Tokyo

Japan, Asia

Tokyo New Years Eve Fireworks

One of the best places to celebrate the start of a new year is undoubtedly Tokyo in Japan - you’ll get to take part in festivities for not just one day but for an entire week!

Japan’s new year celebrations start from 29th December and continue until 4th January. To enjoy a cultural experience the best spots to celebrate the new year in Tokyo is at Meiji Shrine or at Zoji-ji Temple where a monk rings the bell 108 times to denote the arrival of new year but if you like crowds and the party vibe, then head to Shibuya Crossing and partake in the countdown party - unquestionably one of the best outdoor New Year parties in the world.

After three years in the travel industry, my passion for travel continues to grow - from cultural experiences and unforgettable food to exciting adventures and relaxing escapes. What I enjoy most is helping turn my clients travel dreams into reality. 

Travel has been part of my life since I was three years old, and those early experiences sparked a passion that has continued to grow over the years. In 2021, I completed my Level 4 Certificate in Tourism, Airline and Flight Attending, which opened the door to my career in travel. 

I'm excited to discover new destinations and help others do the same!
