Tokyo Airports:

• Narita International Airport (New Tokyo International/NRT): Japan’s main international airport, some 65 km. (40 miles) outside Tokyo. It has two terminals, both connected by a free shuttle bus service. Each airport terminal has a separate railway station too.
• Haneda Airport (HND): Tokyo's domestic airport is conveniently located 16km (10 miles) south of central Tokyo. There are other international airports too at Osaka, Kyushu and Sapporo, but the volume of traffic handled by these is much less than Narita.

Tokyo Railway Transportation:
Tokyo, where Rail is the primary mode of transportation, has the most extensive urban railway network in the world. The Japan Railways (JR) network operates most of these services. Local, regional and national services are available with major terminals at the giant railroad stations including Tokyo and Shinjuku.

The another good and interesting way of getting around Tokyo is by the suijo-basu (river bus or double decker boats) which travels on the Sumida-gawa River.

Many passenger ships and cruise liners call at Japanese ports like Tokyo and Osaka making sea travel an alternative way of getting to Tokyo.
