There is only one right way to do this transfer:
  • Skyliner from Narita to Keisei-Ueno (way faster and cooler-looking than any other option into the city)
  • Check out Ueno Park and/or Ameyoko
  • Yamanote Line from Ueno to Hamamatsucho
  • Walk to Zojoji temple and get a photo with the Tokyo Tower in the background
  • Monorail from Hamatsucho to Haneda
For a first-time visitor to Tokyo, taking the subway is a total waste. Stay above ground so you can see things. For the same reason, monorail >>>>[unscalable wall]>>>> Keikyu.
