So as I understand, May is towards summer already right? Does it get warm enough that our normal clothes is enough during the day? Or is it still closer to Cameron Highlands kind of weather - sometimes cool sometimes warm, so prepare jacket. (assuming Tokyo)

And since it's almost summer, if one has to pick between Tokyo or Kyoto, which is better suited for the weather?

Anyone tried 1-day tours to Mt. Fuji and Hakone? Example: http://www.japanican.com/en/tour/detail/F880_/

Seems like the price not too bad worh, when compared to bullet train (unless you buy the JR pass la). But it's 2 hours by bus vs about.. what half hour by bullet train?

Can reload with credit card?

1. I'm also planning a similar trip, but I started with 12 days as my base plan. Enough or not is up to you. I've seen 7-day itineraries from Osaka to Tokyo. Depends on whether you're the type who prefer to visit a lot of places in one day or you like to spend as much time as you can in one location. If you just hit the main attractions, I think it can be sufficient.

I usually prefer portable WiFi because can share. And I always carry a backpack anyway. Plus I keep my own mobile number active, for just in case.


What I'm interested in, is how cold is November in Tokyo? Need prepare long johns? For reference, I find Cameron Highlands to be not cold at all, maybe a bit cooling during rain or at night.

When you say "per course", are you saying it's 40k yen per person??

Do you have any recommendations for urchin sushi in Tokyo?
