Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in IN as well as at Tokyo, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.

The year in Tokyo

Tokyo has a well-defined seasonal profile that aligns with typical climate norms. Visitors should be aware of the summer heat and potential typhoons during late summer.

Busiest
mid Mar to late May — Ideal spring weather and cherry blossom season attract tourists.
early Jul to late Aug — Summer brings many festivals and events, despite the heat.
Quieter, still good
early Jan to mid Mar — Winter is less crowded with better prices, though colder.
early Sep to late Oct — Fall foliage begins, making it a beautiful time to visit with moderate crowds.
early Nov to late Dec — Transitioning from fall to winter offers fewer tourists and holiday decorations.
Wet or stormy
early Jun to late Jun — rainy season, moderate
early Sep to late Sep — typhoon season, moderate
Worth timing for
Sakura Matsuri (Cherry Blossom Festival), March — High accommodation prices and potential crowding.
Sumida River Fireworks Festival, July — Increased hotel prices due to demand.
Watch out for hot temperatures in summer; typhoon risks in late summer; urban flooding during heavy rains

This section was written by a language model from the climate figures above, and nobody has checked it. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe. The busiest and quieter periods here also count toward the crowd score, which is 20% of the ranking.
