Clear immigration, pick up pocket Wi‑Fi/SIM and take an airport express or limousine bus to your hotel; drop luggage and rest a bit after the overnight flight.
Visit historic Senso-ji Temple and stroll Nakamise shopping street for snacks and souvenirs — easy for a 6‑year‑old and great to stretch legs after the flight. Temple area is open all day.
Choose Skytree observation for panoramic city views (open 8:00am–10:00pm) or a relaxing river cruise to see Tokyo from the water — both are kid-friendly and not physically demanding.
One full day at Tokyo Disneyland is ideal for a 6‑year‑old: character parades, child‑friendly rides, and predictable facilities (baby rooms, stroller rental). Park hours vary but typically open early and close late; purchase tickets and reserve Lightning Lane-type passes or time slots if available.
Odaiba has multiple child favorites — immersive digital art at teamLab (open usually 10:00am–7:00pm; check day-specific hours) or hands-on fun at LEGOLAND Discovery Center.
Stroll the famous bamboo grove and visit Tenryu-ji temple — calm, scenic, and a big hit with children for the 'forest' feel. Temple gardens usually open 8:30am–5:30pm.
Short hike to see wild macaques and city views — it’s active so suitable if the child enjoys easy hikes; park typically open 9:00am–4:30pm (check seasonal times).
Short regional train (35–50 minutes). Easy day trip to see deer and large temples — excellent for a child to interact with freely roaming deer under supervision.
Get to the park early; USJ is hugely popular — pre-book tickets and consider Express Passes for priority rides suitable for a family with a small child.
Allow ample time for express train or airport limousine bus; aim to arrive 2.5–3 hours before an international flight, especially with a child and checked luggage.
Duty-free shopping if time permits; ensure passports, JR passes (if used) and receipts are handy. Flights must be before afternoon per your requirement.
