Poison you abit

i am skipping kyoto tower and the malls..too packed like sardine liao my itinerary..

Ugh, stupid airasia lost my baggage
Anyone going to Japan any time soon? Can help me buy some Kit Kat? The baggage contained all the food stuff i bought to give people here as souvenir and now i have nothing left

Yea i must admit i havent done enough homework for this trip. Getting nervous and excited at the same time.

Thank you for the advice. For tokyo im going to take the hakone free pass as opposed to go straight to the fuji 5th station place i think its a better view from the foot of the hill isnt it.

Does anyone have recomendations to for accomodation in Furano and Biei for solo traveller? How about car rentals which website do u use? I found Tooco but are tehre any others? Thinking of picking up the car at Furano.

Thanks.

waste money. in Hokkaido just stay at Sapporo. Sapporo will be your base.
2nd Base will be Hakodate.
No need waste money on other place. If really want then Asahikawa.

Why is it a waste of money? Can elaborate please? My primary goal is the flower fields in spring and photography. Thus the destination. Why

But u won't stay there as full day. if want choose a city for overnight choose big city. Asahikawa will be the top choice. Plus Asahikawa to biei and furano are near also

Is HANEDA AIRPORT INTERNATIONAL BUILDING = HANEDA AIRPORT TERMINAL 2?

From Ueno to Haneda Airport International Terminal, which station would you choose do the transfer, Shinagawa or Shimbashi?

Nop
Haneda terminal one are all JAL domestic flight
Haneda terminal two are all ANA domestic flight


Simbashi. From Ueno take Yamanote line will reach simbashi station first plus shinagawa station are big and more complicated compare to Simbashi station.

alright, thanks. will follow.

Bro, just chill and relax. Need not so nervous. A little bit of error is ok, consider it an experience. The very first time I went Tokyo when first looked at the subway map I was like @@, but then nothing too difficult. After 2-3 days you can literally memorize which lines go past which station (well at least for metropolitan area).

And there comes my 2nd time, and third time. Looking forward for fourth visit next year. By all means, I am just telling you need not to worry so much. You go there to enjoy, not "gan jeong" and sweat until insomnia.

People asks why I keep repeating the same place, say I am idiot but I don't care as long as I enjoy. Every visit I try to branch out a bit again at different direction.

Haha thanks. Will be lugging baggage during that day so need to find the most convenient path. From station map image, they put the lines so near to one another but already learnt my lesson last time. Had to walk from one end of Tokyo Station to another with heavy begs!

I am also worried wont be able to get a coin locker on the last day, so devising some contingency plan.

Heh, plan going Tokyo for 4th time ar? I already repeating and repeating over 200 times already lu.

Hey guys, I'll be at Kyoto in a few more days. To those who just came back from Japan, what do you wear? Long sleeves or just short sleeves? I'm planning to wear 2 layers of long sleeves t-shirt in daytime with a normal cardigan at night. Is this too much or not enough? I heard that it's cold at night. fyi, I have average tolerance to coldness.

Hi guys,

wanna ask if anyone tried booking toyoko inn using other people's membership card, does it work ? when check-in i don't need to show membership card right?

as i don't want to risk waiting till last 3 months only book (red leaves season is crowded ).

Lastly, does it get windy on Kyoto at november ?

Toyoko Inn only accept 3 month advance booking only. So that guy still can't make any booking if want stay at Toyoko Inn

Haha, I am poor mang... One year can go once also happy.

If I got a job that can fly to Japan that often like you then different (Like you, your frequent flyer must be all platinum grade lol)
