Tokyo with a stroller: verify the complete transition
Plan a stroller day by checking the whole transition—station, transfer, street and venue—on current official information, not by assuming one accessible point makes the entire route easy.
Quick answer
Check the complete movement, not one lift symbol: the station entrance, transfer, street route and venue entry all need to work for the family on the day.
Start with the actual route and the current operator information. Station accessibility, lift work, venue rules and street conditions can change, so a map icon is only the beginning of the check.
Break the trip into transitions: reach the station, board, transfer if needed, exit, cross the last stretch and enter the venue. If one segment is unclear, keep a simpler alternative.
A stroller plan should remain reversible. Allow time to change route, pause or return rather than tying the day to several fixed commitments.
