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 |

QUOTE(Avangelice @ Oct 19 2016, 10:53 AM) yeah I read about it but would that be the worst time to go since there will be so many Japanese and tourist on vacation there? Regards Yes. Worst Time because Hotel will increase price. All attraction places will full of people. Super long Q. If you plan visit Disneyland or Universal Studio at Golden Week...Estimate to Q minimum 2 hour just at the entrance gate only. and all popular rides need Q minimum 2 hour. If you plan just visit Tokyo / Osaka / Kyoto only without going out from City....still ok. If you plan out of City then will be nightmare. Train & air ticket ticket will be fully sold. Bus will be stuck at Highway more than 2 - 10 hour. QUOTE(ZeroSP @ Oct 19 2016, 11:36 AM) Our previous TS RegentCid would say yes, it's probably the worst time to visit Japan during Golden Week. Yes. Worst time to Visit Japan. |

QUOTE(Belphegor @ Oct 15 2016, 12:07 AM) My flight back to KL is at 10am. So that day confirm cannot use. And I am figuring what ways should I use since we have luggages and need to rush. Friday I think usually the train would be pack during morning? The last resort for me should be by car. If you are panning to use the train, please be really early. I went to Tokyo and Osaka in the early of this month and my flight is at Kansai Airport 11am. I took the Express Kansai JR, estimate 44 mins to destination. 7.30am im at namba station, sit in the train for 2x mins then the train stop. Day 1 challenge is that if you have enough time to rush to Tsujiki incase of any delays from your flight, delay on your luggage and stuff. Do anyone know what time Tsujiki outer fish market closes? If is 12pm then I also want to change my itinerary to this. Go straight from airport and spend the day @ Ginza first. Also, what are the best route to travel from Narita Airport Terminal 1 to Tsujiki? - Narita Skyaccess from Narita Airport Terminal 1 to Higashi Ginza? Only Β₯1330 per pax without seat. The operator was saying 10-15 minutes the train will recover, but it doesnt, somehow there is a crash in the track. So waited 20 minutes and cant tahan straight go down rush for taxis. TBH, there is very few taxi outside of Osaka and I almost missed my flight. Taxi cost 8k Yen for 1x KM. |

Just call the customer service line of the flight company that you are going with and ask them to check on the price. Usually, it will the price of that day flight - the price you have paid + some handling feesJust wondering, how long you all usually spend on Shinjuku and Shibuya if is only for sightseeing? |

A dilemma. I'll be in Japan for one week, and another week in HK, then only I'll head home. In HK, I can buy and use a prepaid SIM worth less than $40 for 1GB lasting for a month; definite choice. In Japan, if I'm to get the WiFi rental from Malaysia, I'll ahve to pay for the 2 weeks duration even though I'm only using it in Japan for a week because I'm only returning the device 2 weeks later. If I'm getting the WiFi rental from Japan, instead, I'll be paying twice the amount of money offered locally in KL. Any suggestions how I may turn around with this?

QUOTE(juniorkeat @ Oct 19 2016, 05:55 PM) Hi All, There is an elevated train, and it prolly costs you a few hundred yen. Walking is also ok provided it's not too hot or cold. Google map it and it shows you the cost, think should be 3 or 4 stops.I am planning to Odaiba. I go through study, I found that there are no subway and no JR operating at the area...

Any suggestions how I may turn around with this? 2 years ago when I went Japan, I rented a wifi through pupuru. Can return through any postbox in Japan (they include an envelope which has been paid already). Quite reasonable and good coverage too.I just checked and it's around 400yen per day now. Maybe you can check and consider? This post has been edited by Yenjo: Oct 19 2016, 09:11 PM |
