QUOTE(domo_kun @ Oct 18 2016, 08:47 AM) RM13 a day. Pretty cheap. But RM200 refundable deposit, now that's a pain in the butt. How about the connection quality? The deposit i am aware of, not a big problem for me   |

QUOTE(buffa @ Oct 15 2016, 05:39 PM) Hi, I would like to confirm I want to go to Osaka station from Kyoto station and I have JR Pass for it. Yep, I second the earlier confirmation. You should be fine using these trains with a JR Pass, although you might have to pay extra for a reserved seat. From hyperdia, I found there are 2 type of train go Osaka station from Kyoto station without transit 1. LTD. EXP THUNDERBIRD 32 2. JR Special Rapid Service for BANSHUAKO Does that mean my JR Pass only eligible (free) for the 'JR Special Rapid Service for BANSHUAKO ' If I take "LTD. EXP THUNDERBIRD 32", I have to pay for the fees? Some other options for Osaka to Kyoto .. How Much Does it Cost to Travel From Osaka to Kyoto? |

QUOTE(Bliz @ Oct 18 2016, 09:38 AM) My travel date is 17th Nov until 28th Nov 2016 Used it in my last trip. Coverage is good, except Arashiyama suffer a bit signal degradation, but considerable since its mountainous area. Other than that, unlimited full speed, which i can do anything. Done a speed test which the speed is always between 5 mbps to 30 mbps depends on the location. |

QUOTE(deodorant @ Oct 15 2016, 12:44 PM) If you're only going to do the outer fish market I would question the need to even bother putting tsukiji in your itinerary at all ... Hey bro, why you say that? I am thinking to have almost the same plan as well. Can explain more please? |

Nice feedback - booking mine as well - I was just contemplating to go with Celcom Roaming at RM138 for 1 week but I guess this option is better.While at it need a little suggestion: Will be arriving at Narita - do I just get the N'EX TOKYO Round Trip Ticket or is there a better option? Travelling party of 3 |

I was considering that, but need to pay the RM200 deposit and have to courier back + all the cost etc (I from Johor). I feel stress need to take care of this (my psychological la)I decided to get Yokoso Sim from lazada. Just use my phone to tether. Anyone has experience before? |

Just did a rough planning and you are right. 5k is enough. I am looking into flying on the last week of April and coming back on the second week. Damn myr currency is so bad these days. Ugrh. Anyways i have a rough idea from reading the comments Kuching to KL then to Osaka. Three days there. Then another two in between somewhere I haven't decided and ultimately spending another three days in Tokyo. I'll read up more |

Totals for 2 pax. BTW those 3 trips were not 'luxury' trips at all - just mostly normal "business hotels" and airbnb with the occasional splurge on ryokan and nicer meals. Just giving some data points 👌🏻 |

Not singapore dollar right? Totals for 2 pax. BTW those 3 trips were not 'luxury' trips at all - just mostly normal "business hotels" and airbnb with the occasional splurge on ryokan and nicer meals. Just giving some data points 👌🏻  Just wondering, how long you all usually spend on Shinjuku and Shibuya if is only for sightseeing? Add in another 2 hours for shopping, 1 day trip to both place enough time? From 10.30am onwards.  This post has been edited by Belphegor: Oct 19 2016, 11:07 AM |
