While finding sleeping and parking spots in the countryside is easy, finding a spot to stay in big cities like Tokyo can be challenging. While we advise against staying in big cities with your camper, we compiled a list of spots you could stay in while visiting Tokyo.
Wakasu Seaside Park Parking Lot
This one is our favorite as it's wide, open‑air, and calm.
⚠️ Height Limit Warning: Parking Lot has a 2.0 m height limit. This excludes almost every standard campervan and RV. A typical Hiace-based camper is around 2.1–2.3 m and will not fit. Check your vehicle's height before making the trip — arriving and being turned away is frustrating and wastes a lot of time in Tokyo traffic.
- Time to city by public transport: 30 min to Tokyo Station
- Cost: 1000 yen per 24 hours
- Limited to passenger cars (length 5.0m, width 2.0m, height 2.0m or less) and motor vehicles other than buses.
- Number of units: 322
You cannot leave the parking lot between 22:00 and 6:00 am, so it is calm at night.
Haneda airport parking
- Time to city by public transportation: 30 mins from Tokyo Station
- Price: about 2,800 yen per 24 hours
The P4 and P5 are suitable for large cars.
RV park Kuruma Tabi (Sumida)
- Time to city: 45 mins to Tokyo station
- Cost: 5000 yen per night
- Number of units: 4
This is the only RV park in Tokyo's 23 wards. It is very small (only 4 spaces) and in high demand — book well in advance via their website. Same-day availability is rare, especially on weekends.
