QUOTE(Belphegor @ Oct 14 2016, 04:32 PM) Hey fellow travelers, I have almost completed my itinerary for my Japan trip from Feb 18 - 24. However, I have few issues would like to check with those who experienced in traveling to Japan. Your advice will be greatly appreciate. i actually hate long distance traveling during vacations Day 1 (Sat) - Land Japan morning time and free & easy at Shinjuku (Staying around shinjuku area) Day 2 (Sun) - Empty at the moment Day 3 (Mon) - Tsujiki Fish Market, Ginza/Chuo, Taito, Sumida-ku visit Day 4 (Tue) - Lake Kawaguchiko Day 5 (Wed) - DisneySea Day 6 (Thu) - Free and easy to Meiji Shrine, Yogogi park, Shibuya Shopping Day 7 (Fri) - Back to KL I am actually pondering if I want to swap my Lake Kawaguchiko to Sunday as I do not want to have two days straight to travel extensively. But Sunday I worried that might be too jam as many visitor even Japanese are heading there as well. If push Lake Kawaguchiko to Sunday and DisneySea to Thursday, I have 3 days space in between for me to travel around Japan and I can buy the 72 hours pass to go around. Need all the advice from travelers. Please let me know if which is better. Or you could share with me a better planning. Thank you! that why i normally do it in 1shot if i were u, i will go lake kawaguchiko on saturday and stay a nite there most of the hotel there hv onsen... after tat u can tell ur fren u naked with a bunch of ppl b4 another advantage no need so troublesome to check in then check out then check in again... repeat n-times jus for ur info, japan hotel checkout time 10am checkin time is 3pm is very impractical |

My long distance traveling are all day trips, as my gf did not want to stay there. Also not to mention the hotel there are quite expensive also. Hence the day trip. If go on Saturday it is going to be very hectic for us as luggage are still with us. We arrive Narita approximately 7.30am. While wait for luggage, check on the tourism counter information, etc.. I think we only get to leave airport around 9.30am. that why i normally do it in 1shot if i were u, i will go lake kawaguchiko on saturday and stay a nite there most of the hotel there hv onsen... after tat u can tell ur fren u naked with a bunch of ppl b4 another advantage no need so troublesome to check in then check out then check in again... repeat n-times jus for ur info, japan hotel checkout time 10am checkin time is 3pm is very impractical We will be staying in Shinjuku via Airbnb for the entire vacation.

hi guys, would like to get an estimate cash yen needed to exchange for my next week trip. travel location is Osaka and Kyoto for 7 days.
if i were to eat streetfood, 7-11, mcD, some ramen shop like ichiran and very rare of exclusive dining. can i say RM50 a meal is safe? say i eat 3 meals per day that will be RM150 and RM50 for transport to top up my icoca card. that would make it rm200 per day cash for food and travel hence RM1.4k for 7 days. and top up rm1k for shopping, so is it safe to exchange RM2500 to YEN cash? and can someone help to verify the ATM card we use here in Malaysia like Maybank atm card can withdraw cash from 7-11 or japanpost? |
