Talk about an "it" city - Tokyo has been at the center of it all for quite a while and promises to be for the foreseeable future. Oh there have been contenders for the capital of fashion, music, architecture, and technology - but Tokyo still wins hands down every time. As a result, purchasing any type of real estate here will cost you a premium.
Instead of purchasing a vacation home, however, buy timeshare and leave the worrying to someone else. Unlike a vacation home, you won't have to think about closing and securing the house when your vacation ends. Another perk is that when you arrive after a long flight you'll only have to put your key in the door, and walk in to a perfectly decorated and maintained suite. No dusting out the cobwebs. Additionally, because most timeshare are larger than the average hotel room, you'll be the envy of other travelers you meet in Tokyo.
Unlike other destination travel, finding timeshares in Tokyo can present a challenge. First, there aren't that many. Second, owners tend to hang onto them. If you do see one for sale, be prepared to move on it straight away. For that reason, a little pre-planning is in order. Investigate the timeshares available, understand what you want, perhaps even rent a few to gain a better idea of what it's like.
Cruising Tokyo
There are a host of things to do in Tokyo 24-hours a day no matter what you're interested in. If you're in town on a Sunday, go to Yoyogi Park in Harajuku and check out the street performers. For shoppers, try the Ginza district for amazing window displays, pricey stores and unending array of choices. Or, bring a snack and simply people watch all day.
Seeking the latest in electronics? Ask the concierge at your timeshare for directions to the Akihabara district and be prepared to be overwhelmed. If you can't find what you're looking for here, it hasn't been invented yet - come back tomorrow and it just might be. Yes, in Tokyo things change that quickly.
But while you'll find the newest trends everywhere around Tokyo, don't forget its ancient past. View traditional kabuki at a national theater or a Noh play. In the spring, don't forget to take time out to view the cherry blossoms.
You'll be walking a lot while in Japan, even if you take the subway. After an exhausting day, consider a cruise on the Sumida River for a different perspective on Tokyo.
There's no doubt about it, one visit to this city and you'll be longing for your Tokyo fix all year long. Timeshare sales can be your key to a lifetime of adventure.
