Tokyo Guide 3.5.0.0
Since this activity can be carried out very well even if you are on the move, you can try one of the apps for Windows Phone dedicated to that purpose and going by the name of Tokyo Guide.
Friendly look for a practical GUI
The utility has a less common interface that is build upon a map of the actual city, so as to make it easier for you to browse the local attractions.
Going through the several areas of the app and navigating the map in road or aerial view mode has a fluent feel to it. Also, the imagery included inside Tokyo Guide is of pretty good quality.
Look up close at the main landmarks in the capital city of Japan
Insofar as the organization of the content is concerned, there should be no issues in finding a certain place as long as it is included in the database of this app. The locations are marked distinctly on the map and by tapping any of the markers will reveal the name of that place.
There is another method of filtering and searching for interesting locations in the capital of Japan, more precisely by accessing the places list that is ordered alphabetically and can be brought up with a tap on the corresponding button from the main menu.
Discover Tokyo's tourist attractions at a glance
For every spot included in Tokyo Guide you can read the details provided by the Wikipedia articles and there are also some neat photographs that are illustrative for each of the locations.
If you want to go a step further and you feel like you need more info and photos, you can access the source page by pressing the link to the source that is placed inside each article included inside this app.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The looks of this application are common, while the layout is well structured offering a pleasant experience from end to end. |
Function7
The amount of information provided by Tokyo Guide for each location is sufficient, but the number of places it includes in its database is quite small, so it loses a bit here. |
Security9
The app remains fairly discreet while running, as it only needs to access the phone identity for some reason. |
Battery4
There is a very high power consumption related to this utility and this will make the battery drain pretty fast. |
Price8
This is a quite useful tool to have as it offers without any nuisance or need to purchase a lot of information about one of the most visited cities in the world. |
Compatibility10
In order to have this utility installed and running well users will only need a Windows Phone 7 or above handset. |
