camping at the airport would be a good new experience, i believe. any trip would be eventually be tiring, i guess, but we'll have fun.
by the way, anyone did a hike to Mt Fuji during winter sesaon before? i'm checking out the bike tour around Tokyo, too. about 20-25KM bicycle ride, i hope it's not gonna be too painful on the butt, haha. |

hi guys, i need some advise on how to make a day trip to nikko, it's my first time visiting japan. I have 1 free day and i wanna go to nikko in the morning from asakusa then make it back on the same day.
so from my research I should get the World Heritage Pass which include the round trip train fare from Asakusa to Nikko via Tobu Line. Where can I get the World Heritage Pass? Is this the recommended way? How long will the journey take? Once in Nikko can i use public transport to Toshogu Shrine, Futarasan Shrine and Rinnoji Temple or do I have to walk there?

i oso blur on this NIKKO whether can be done by foot or the bus. the website stated first are allow to use the servis train, but from the route, we only allow to use once from asakusa to shimoimachi once..but the map look like the shimoimachi is the last station and another station NIKKO..not sure whether it covers up to NIKKO or not..

Hi guys, here's my first draft schedule of Tokyo trip from 12/11 to 16/11. I plan to stay at Sunlite Shinjuku Hotel around Shinjuku Area for 2 for 4 nights, total RM1,000.
-Monday- Reach Haneda at 11.00 p.m, take Airport Limousine Bus to Shinjuku West Exit, walk to Sunlite Shinjuku Hotel (about 700m east of Shinjuku Station, check in (hope can reach hotel by 1.30 a.m  ).-Tuesday- Buy Suica Card at Shinjuku Station, ride train to Asakusa Station, buy World Heritage Pass @ 3,600 yen, visit Nikko (can see autumn season?) until evening, back to Shinjuku. -Wednesday- Ride train from Shinjuku to Disneyland, buy daily pass @ 6,200 yen, visit Disneyland until night, back to Shinjuku. -Thursday- Buy Odakyu Free Pass @ 5,000 yen, ride train to Hakone, visit Hakone until evening, back to Shinjuku. -Friday- Ride train to Akihabara, back to Shinjuku (check out hotel), ride train to Harajuku (Oriental Baazar for souvenirs), ride train to Shibuya, ride train to Haneda Airport, return Suica Card, leave Japan at 11 p.m. (Note: Akihabara, Harajuku and Shibuya estimated 3 hours each - touch and go sightseeing style) Please advice/ comment on the feasibility of this schedule. And this is a budget trip .Thank you. |

Nikko is the last stn. If you already bought the free pass, just wait for the bus to take you to the world heritage site.. which is ~ 3km from Nikko town. Your free pass covered the unlimited bus rides within that areaThis post has been edited by stimix: Aug 9 2012, 08:17 PM |
