Type 7 Guide to Tokyo

This is the first volume of the new line of premium travel guides by Type 7 - the daily magazine powered by Porsche. The “Type 7 Guide to Tokyo” encapsulates the vast city into essential categories such as Eat, Drink, Rest, Shop, Architecture, and includes recommendations for specific city activities.

Tailored for the discerning traveler, the guide features a selection that ranges from the luxurious—like the renowned AMAN Hotel and the Park Hyatt, famed by the movie “Lost In Translation”—to the clandestine sushi spots in Tsukiji fish market’s alleyways, and what might be the most revolutionary and delectable pizza globally. Accompanying the recommended spots is rich photography that seeks to encapsulate the city’s true spirit, with special annotations for ‘24 Hours in Tokyo’ to guide those with limited time to experience an ideal day at essential, yet unexpected, venues.

The comprehensive compilation of featured locations results from an immersive month-long exploration of the city by Type 7 and ERG Media founder Ted Gushue, creative director Thomas Walk, and Tokyo aficionados Peter Sayn-Wittgenstein and Yurina Roche, who offered their photographic expertise and insider knowledge on the city’s hidden treasures and cultural subtleties often missed by even seasoned Tokyo connoisseurs.

Originally accompanying Type 7 Volume 4: Team Ikuzawa Edition, this guide has been thoroughly updated and redesigned by the team, incorporating new and refreshed locations, a redesigned aesthetic, and high-quality materials. Presented in a durable, thread-sewn linen hardcover, the “Type 7 Guide to Tokyo” is designed for use, display, and collection as an enduring component of a series that will continue to grow in the months and years ahead.
