Hi All,

I tried to book TDS and TDL on a 2 days visit pass from the site http://www.tokyodisneyresort.co.jp/en/ticket/index.html . Everything looks fine up until the booking confirmation page where it shows the summary of the booking (date and price 11,000Yen per pax).

However when it came to paying, it redirected me to the my bank OTP page. I was shocked to see the amount became USD22,000 instead of 22,000YEN shocking.gif obviously I didn't proceed with the transaction sweat.gif. Was wondering anyone encountered this before ?

Hi Travelers, planning a trip to Nagoya 2015, just starting to do some "homework". Was wondering how many days are needed to cover Nogoya. Planning an easy, low budget tour. I see a lot of interesting places, but I think they are quite far apart. Need to know approximately how many days so as to book air asia, then only plan the route.
Any suggestion? Thanks alot.

Hmmm... Never encountered this.

Anyway, recommend you buy 1 ticket for 1 day Disney Sea and another separate ticket for 1 day Disneyland visit instead of grabbing the day pass for 2 which costs more because we felt that 1 day itself was not enough to cover the entire Disney.. sea or land.

Lastly, if you plan to buy that famous bear, do take note that it's only available at Disney Sea. You won't be able to buy it at Disneyland.

thanks for your input .. now I'm not sure how to proceed with the advance ticket purchase other than buying it when I arrive Tokyo sad.gif

On your suggestion besides being cheaper tickets, I thought the 2 days ticket would be the only way to visit both TDS and TDL on connecting days ? No?

Well not necessary. Really depends on which company you work. Been here for two years and do really like it here. Met tons of Malaysian here as well who have been here for much much longer and not many of them have plan to go back home to work....retirement yes.

Hi guys, appreciate your recommendations.

I will be arriving in Tokyo via Shinkansen at Tokyo Station. Can anyone recommend an easily accessible 4-5 star hotel along the JR line? Maximum budget is RM 600 per night.

I would prefer to use as little metro as possible since I'm traveling in a group and with baggage.

You sure RM600 Per Room? To let you know Japan vert strict on this ..one room max 2 pax only. You don't ever think can rent one room but 4-5 pax share one room. This won't work in Japan.


So you still sure want RM600 Per Room? One person have to pay RM300 per night.

I'm traveling with my family. So, budget's not a problem. But still, RM600 it the maximum lah. If you can recommend cheaper around 450-500 than that would be better.

Previously I was looking at Marunaouchi Metropolitan Hotel, but somehow my travel agent could not get the booking confirmation. So, I'm currently looking for alternatives.
