I've bought my air ticket to Tokyo via AirAsia.  As there will be a sizeable group of us going, I am now sourcing for a reliable and trusted tour operator for the ground arrangement.  Any suggestions from the forumers here?  Thanks.  smile.gif

Everyone got the Japan Visa already?

How big was your group size?

if only got 1 night to go at tokyo between these 2 choices, which one to choose?

Roppongi SkyDeck or tokyo tower?

or possible to go visit both places in a night since both is only 2km distance?

Dear Ah Wang,

If you have the money & time to go up both then why not?

If have to choose one.

I will choose Roppongi Sky Deck (Mori Tower). Reason was , I want take the tokyo tower as my background picture. On night, a red tall tower in middle of city are so beautiful.

Picture will be like this:

Nothing in that area lor.. Just the tower & surrounding area around the tower also nothing much to see.. probably due to the rain..i can't even walk outside that Hill.. Going to the tower also kena rain. and sumore, due to the bad weather, i dun even want to pay 1500yen going up till the observatory point & the art museum.. The shops inside the Mori tower also nothing interest me.. The only thing i hang around Starbucks enjoying 300yen coffee while waiting for the rain to stop.well it never stop on that day and I hv to run to the MRT stn to goto Shibuya bcos the stn below the tower is diff stn and to switch stn from that Tower, another 160yen...darmit..imagine we are complaining about our LRT ampang & Kelana Jaya not integrated..and now Tokyo..even worst.. switching to diff lines, for sure have to go out from one line & re-tap again..sigh..

Shinjuku Station was Guinness world record Station. World most busiest station. with 200 Exit from station.
One day handle 3.68 million passenger.

Whole KL population just 1.68 Million only.

You can see how well is Shinjuku Station handle the train and passenger flow.....still keep in no late train record more than 10 minute

Didn't go Yoyogi Park? Mana red light district picture?

shibuya famous Cross....nearby got a starbuck....I always lepak there. Best starbuck in world.....inside got alot cute japanese (usually all the time)

One thing i quite very regret .....forgot to told you. When you last day in Tokyo should go this place to have a unforgettable dinner in Tokyo with your wife and daugther.

Sukiyabashi Jiro (just next to Ginza Station Opposite the Sony building) Micheline 3 star sushi restaurant. If you think sushi zanmai was best ....this shop will be 3 times better.

P/S: This shop doesn't allow customer put his sushi into vinegar // soya // wasabi. He will think you are insulting his 3 star ranking food.


Seriously, Stimix if next time going Tokyo together.....I belanja you

RegentCid, how to ask their permission to take their photo in Japanese ?

あなたの写真を取るいいか?

How to ask to take picture together with them?

一緒に写真を取るもいいか?

Correct or not?
Talk more wrong more....


Just go near them point the camera and point her....they will know the meaning. Pointing is Universal language.

If they accept they will smile....reject will go away or waving hand '' tak mau''

They very friendly......chances are very high. Depend on you muka thick enough or not only

A bit disappointing on Tokyo Sky Tree.

634M tall building ....Actual tall just 450M.....From 450M tall onward all are TV broadcast Antenna. This means Shanghai Financial Observation deck still the highest in world 474m

Sky Tree got 2 observation deck....350m and 450m

May 22 Open for those early booking people....all the way until July 10. (22 May 2012 to 10 July 2012 fully reservation)
From July 11 onward only can buy ticket go up.

350M Observation Deck cost 2,000 Yen ; 450M Deck add another 1,000Yen. Ticket to 450m are sold in 350m Observation Deck.
This Mean,

All people only can reach 350m only....want to go 450m will be like KLCC skybridge...it got limited people count...one day open for how many still not official yet.
