Toki Premium Outlet? Nearest to Nagoya I think

Premium Outlet Store are not Factory Outlet. Don't mess it up. Factory outlet only sell one brand. Premium Outlet store like our Johor Premium outlet store...alot of brand


Factory outlet was at Factory it self. After visiting the factory operation. then you buy the product at factory it self with cheapest price because no including transportation and store rental price.


Premium Outlet store are more expensive price due to location but you can get limited Edition stuff than normal store.
such as Nike / Adidas at Premium Outlet store always got some limited stuff that you cannot get at Nike / Addidas store at Tokyo city.


Toki Premium Outlet store. I went there Once only. Nth special compare. I prefer Gotemba Premium Outlet Store more. It was far away from Nagoya City also.... 1 hour 30 Minute plus

RegentCid,
First at Hiroshima Station take Shinkansen to Mihara Station (三原駅). Please take Note. Nozomi Shinkansen does not stop at Mihara Station. Once you reach Mihara Station, change to JR Kure Line to Tadanoumi Station (忠海駅). Walk to Ferry terminal. 15 Minute Boat Ride (Adult 300Yen & Children 150Yen Per Way) to reach Destination. Rabbit Food are sold for 100yen only
From hiroshima station to Mihara station is sanyo jr line right? I checked in Jorudan jp. It shows 2 different JR lines
*
Yes. Hiroshima are Sanyo Shinkanshen. The Shinkansen Line are parallel to JR Sanyo main Line

Really appreciate the reply. So i can slash out the 1st item.

The 2nd item start next year april. So, the things dat will be tax are items on hand n checked luggage as well?

Or just items on hand. This got me really confuse, as i imagine our msian custom open our bags and check every item, lol.
*
All luggage. I think the only way to avoid tax are unboxing everything and throw away the box.

Hey guys, planning to travel to tokyo from kota kinabalu for 7 days. MAS return flight 1700plus. Is that okay?

Also how is the weather like in early to mid december? Will there be snowing? What attire would be suitable? And what are the budget like for 2 person excluding flight? Is tokyo a suitable city for free and easy? And last which are the area/hotels with the most convenient location at a budget price?

Thanks so much in advance!

On day 1, I'll be taking the direct express from Shinjuku to Gotemba outlet then check in ryokan after shopping.

From gotemba station I take route G bus at bus stop 6 back to hakone-yumoto?
Yes. Very Obvious

Day 2 will be doing the hakone loop after check out with hakone free pass then go back to shinjuku.

I'm concerned since I'm not going to use it for Shinjuku -> Hakone Yumoto, will there be any problem if I use it for Hakone Yumoto -> Shinjuku?
No problem.

Also, can I hop on the train anytime since I have the pass (according to their time table of course) or do I still need to reserve in advance? FYI won't be taking romance car.
Hakone Free Pass only works inside Hakone. It do not cover any Odakyu Train from Hakone Yumoto to Shinjuku. You take Odakyu normal local train or Odakyu Limited Express "Romance Car" also have to buy ticket.
BUT; IF you have Hakone FREE PASS...you can buy Romance Car ticket with special Price which is 890 Yen per Head only"
