Question I have a long layover in Tokyo and want to go from Narita to the Tsukiji Fish
market. What trains and subway combination is the most direct route?
Answer Hi,
The easiest way would be to take the Keisei Skyliner to
Ueno Stn and then take the subway to the Hibiya Line to
Tsukiji Stn. Alternatively if you are also looking around,
you could walk there from the Ginza district. See the
Narita website at http://www.narita-airport.jp/en/
for more info.
However, the Tsukiji market is hopping from before dawn
to about just after 7-8 AM. If you go there in the afternoon
you will find little happening there.
