Narita International Airport (code NRT) was formally known as the New Tokyo International Airport. Currently, it is often referred to as Tokyo Narita airport and it serves the Greater Tokyo Area of the world largest island country. To get to central Tokyo from Narita International Airport, you will have to travel approximately 37 nautical miles, or about 60 km.

Notably, Narita International Airport handles up to half of the country’s total internal air traffic. For years now, the airport has held a title as the second busiest in both passenger and cargo traffic, with Haneda airport leading the pack. The main runway is Japan’s and one of the world’s longest. Both Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways & Cargo Airlines have it as their main hub. Other Asian airlines such as Delta Air and United Airlines use the airport as a regional hub as well. Given the distance between the city centre and Narita International Airport, numerous means of transport are available for passengers. If you are in need of transport to the city, you can use the bullet train.

Japanese are best at keeping time, thus you won’t need to worry about train delays that can cost you a crucial meeting at the city centre. However, delays are common in public means of transport especially during weekdays. The main cause for this is the heavy traffic that tends to build up from Narita International Airport to the centre of Tokyo. If you are into sightseeing, opt instead for car hire. Rented cars will ensure that you have a clear view of the city’s beauty. Besides, you can park your car and take photos at any spot you like within the city. Many tourists in the past have preferred hiring a car to the taxi due to the possible and imminent inconveniences that are easily avoidable with a hired car.

What to do while in Tokyo

Tokyo is a city characterized by the mushrooming skyscrapers. There is a lot you can do when here including:

Enjoying a Sushi Meal: This country is where the first Sushi was made, and you can head to any restaurant and order a plate of sushi. There are hundreds of world-class restaurants in the entire city, thus you won't have a problem spotting one.
Enjoying a Panoramic View of the City: Towers are common in Tokyo. Just for a dime, you can get to the tip of a tower and have a clear panoramic view of the distant Tokyo Skyline. Some skyscrapers of the neighboring Shinjuku Metropolitan (23 km away) are clearly visible especially during the morning hours when the skies are clear. It is a beauty to behold. Alternatively, why not hire a car and get there in person? Smart Idea, isn’t it?
