Hi, would like to ask if it is a good time to visit tokyo after mid september?
Thanks

if end of sep to beginning of oct how is the weather like in Tokyo? still hot? i read that it might have typhoon..  if still hot, i might save my luggage space and no need bring jacket

Is it good time to visit osaka on mid of Jan? Will it too cold?

Wow that mean need bring winter clothes there? All shop will closed early during winter?

But day light will start earlier?

Anyone know how to make online reservation for the following transportation?

1. Nozomi shinkansen from Kyoto to Nagoya
2. Wide view Hida from Nagoya to Takayama
3. Nohi bus from Takayama to Shirakawa-go
4. Nohi bus from Shirakawa-go to Kanazawa
5. Kanazawa to Shin-Osaka

I have tried search online, but couldn't find much information. There is one website (J-Bus) but must registered as member, and registration needs to be done in Japanese.

Many thanks.

how's the weather for the first two weeks during june? research shows me that it's the starting of the rainy season.. how's the rain compare to kl?

Hi guys,

long time reader here (still cant really read all the lengthy thread one by one) and currently planning my visit in October for a week. 17th to 24th October KL-Haneda-KL.

Since I'm still in planning stage and perhaps someone can show me the right approach. This is my 1st Japan visit so INITIALLY I'm not going for ABC itinerary but rather loose one, or rather a very loose Tokyo itinerary. Places or spot might change over time and scheduling or availability.

Ok right now I'll lay out my primary concern first.

1. I'll arrive late maybe around 10.30-11pm. What are chances  I'm going to get to the last Monorail to Hamamatsucho?
First timer. You Success rate are 15%. If you very lucky that day then increase to 20%


2. How realiable is Airbnb? I never use this before. I'm trying to save some  money since I'm with party of 4 including me.
You have to do more homework about it. See people review.


3. Would it be hassle to cram Tateyama - Alpine Route in my 7 days Tokyo visit
First you have to slap your own first. Because starting you say loose and easy. But now want to put Tateyama Alphine route in, This will make your schedule very very tight. No single mistake can allow. You must follow ABCDEFG itinerary.


4. I am the only one who understand Japan well enough within my party. I'm pretty sure others can manage travel alone but they might not realize how hard it is travelling in Japan without proper travel operator. will this rise problem?

5. How reliable is Navitime Free Wifi within Tokyo? anybody relies on this alone?
Free word doesn't exited in Japan. Good thing don't come with free.


These are my primary concern. Lets see how they sort out first.

Thank you.

Hmm.. hotel in kyoto during end of november so expensive? i try search for hotel in agoda and other website,  mostly 3 star hotel ~rm1k/night, or more it's like 2 times more expensive than what i pay 2 years back.

may be it's too early to look for hotel now?

anyone have experience get accomodation from airbnb for their stay in japan? any comment?
TIA

I arrive Kansai Airport at 10.30pm too and have decided to overnight in Airport to save the hassle for rushing and also one night hotel cost.

Kansai airport have airport lounge, and I read that by applying as member, you get 50% discount. So staying in the airport lounge wasn't that expensive. But their website mentioned that kids are not allow to stay in the airport lounge after certain hour but not sure how strict is the rules.

RegentCid so touching....manly tears come out edi

osaka 2 day amazing pass and kansai wide area pass ( just for the sake of sitting in a shinkansen)

Would they be affordable?
I have booked Hotel Diamond to crash for a night on July 4th.
Or any suggestion for hotel in Osaka for late-night arrival?

Anyone staying in Tokyo permanently? Need help to find an affordable share house accommodation. 30k can get a room with double bed? >_<

RC....i need help....End march still have snow in Unazuki Onsen? I can't find the exact info on the net...
