I will definitely check on Apple Tour. Thanks for recommending. smile.gif
My mum also ask me to check on Golden Destinations Travel, her friend told her to wait as there will be a promotion package. Any idea about how's the review for this agency?
Budget around RM5-6k per pax. Our purposes to visit Japan are shopping and Foods smile.gif
I actually prefer to DIY, but since i never been to Japan. It will be very difficult to plan for the first time, plus recently my works are overloaded.  sweat.gif
So, we decided to signup tour package from travel agency. Next time will be DIY then  laugh.gif
and Yep, my mum is still can walk, run and jump.  biggrin.gif
*
ur decision is correct
sometime diy is not necessary cheaper and no 5star hotel too

the oni thing u missed out is miss the chance to interact with local ppl and ther culture... learn to buy mrt ticket... party until morning or sleep until noon...

if u wan to shop, make ur purchase at premium outlet or target the the japanese's brand tat is not available in msia.

Hi again all sifu, I still blur for the above route. Please enlighten me with above picture. I have tickets as below

1. tokyo metro 72 hours pass
2. Suica Card

When I reach at the Shibuya Station, it ask me stay on board but if I was using tokyo meto day pass, how to I exit outside tokyo metro station?

Do i need to leave train at Shibuya station with tokyo metro pass n reenter with suica card?

Or can I exit at destination station by going to ticket machine to pay balance? if yes, any site that enables this instruction? I found those is using ticket to pay balance but not tokyo metro pass.

Please help!

boy, pls download Tokyo Subway Route Map
Tokyo Subway Map

hey guys

we only have 20'+24' luggage with 2 backpacks.
So I was wondering if I buy too much stuff which cannot fit into my luggage anymore.
is it easy to get a carton box from store to wrap it up before heading to the airport? or is there a service there?
*
i bought back "few" boxes of gundam... bug one brows.gif

its quite nice when they wrap it...
coz they bundle it with "box handle"
but it still too big... carrying it is abit of problem.

oh the toy shop do not hv box packaging service
i somehow managed to convince them to search their store for the boxes
lucky for me... they have everything there

Thanks everyone for the feedback. Really appreciate it, Just one more question, you guys usually will get the midnight departure ticket so that the time of arrival is actually early in the morning, am I right to say that?

If my date of travel is from March 23 to April 8. Will the chances of seeing Sakura high enuf?
*
when i travel alone, i might save abit by taking overnight flight.

but if travel with elderly, it is better to take morning flight.
overnight flight is very damaging to their health and they might not enjoying the trips. coz they need few day to recover their stamina and stress.

For those who are going to Japan soon and wants to get a SIM card can consider this by NTT Docomo - https://docomo.prepaid-sim.jp/lp/index.html#overview

1000 yen starting price - earn your high speed data by watching ads/doing surveys

Too bad my flight to Osaka (KIX) will land at 9.30pm with a very strong possibility of delayed arrival - https://www.airportia.com/flights/d71/kuala_lumpur/osaka/
And the SIM collection counter will only open until 10.30pm
If not I would have applied for it

buy online, request them pos to ur hotel

serious, why nobody shared their AAX 10:30pm arrival experience?
whether they managed to board the last train or not...
just share here la

i myself managed to
1) bought the tokyo metro pass... ~11:00pm - 12:00am
2) board the train from haneda, not sure it is last train or not. boarding time ~12:00 - 12:30am
->(forget the exact time) but the range is correct

but the catch is... my arrival date is on the Chinese New Year's EVE
superduper peak season

so what is your?

Hi Guys... Below are my itineraries:

Please help me to edit edit and enhance my winter Feb 2018 trip...

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Possible?

Questions:
1. Day 4: Not really sure what to do in Tokyo. Not a fan of shopping. Maybe Disneyland if really nothing much to do. Not really enjoy my Tsukiji previous trip. Coz I'm not a fan of fresh raw seafood. Salmon still okay but the rest... err... not a fan really. And I paid 3500 Yen for tat platter. Maybe this round, I go make knife there?! Let my family go eat those seafood. I rather take Ramen, Omurice etc... Or steam crabs like in Hakodate.
2. Day 6-7: Arriving Asahikawa, what to do in that small city?
3. Will use trains more... since Hokkaido Jr Pass almost same price with Jr National Pass might as well go for National. Can travel further.
4. Will it be rushing trip? Half of my audience are first timer in Japan. Although not much focus in Tokyo, but at least can give them a glimpse of how Tokyo is like.
5. Planning to bring 100K Yen for expenses (exclude flights, Jr passes and accomodation) Cukup? 100k per pair.
*
i jus vomit blood at ur itinerary.
ur reason goto tokyo bcoz of expensive hotel...
then replace with another expensive jr train 🤦🏻

hokkaido so damn big... so many place can go and u cant plan it.

i think u better cincai point anywhere at hokkaido map,
and set tat as ur new destination.
