Hi all, i plan for a quick stop over at Narita for 2 days, before connecting another flight to US, just to ask, what type of Visa should i apply and how long is the application? thx

Hello,
my boyfriend is going to Japan this sunday.
Can i ask whether what credit card Japan accept? I mean which bank?
Based on my boyfriend, HK don't accept Maybank credit card. How bout Japan?
Anyone been to Shimizu,Japan before?
Can suggest what is nice to eat there but need to be cheap la cause budget...what things that is cheap that he can buy back to Malaysia for friends?
Roughly how much to spend in Shimizu excluding flight and hotel?
Please advice.
Thanks

I don't think they care about which bank the credit card is coming from.
If it is VISA or MasterCard, any shop will accept it.
(I do not own American Express so I do not know about it)

I've been to Japan several times.
So far I've been using my Maybank and HSBC VISA and MasterCard with no problem all the time.

no offend, but the package that apple holiday offers is certainly higher than other company's package. No doubt that they really put a lot of effort in advertising their Japan tours.

Found other company offering lower price during MATTA fair

thanks akai-x

hi guys, i need some input regarding choosing the best combination of JR passes...

here's my itinerary:

day 1-9 kyoto-kobe-nara-osaka-himeji-miyajima islands(for the torii gates) (day trips from kyoto)
day 10 train to hiroshima
day 12 flight from hiroshima to new chitose airport and then 2 nights in sapporo
day 15 train to hakodate for 2 nights
day 17 train to tokyo for 10 nights.

my question is :
1)for the kansai area, what combination of JR pass should i get to suit my travel needs kyoto(and surrounding area)+travel to hiroshima?
im a little confused when i see that JR-west dont include travel from kyoto to hiroshima... how should i go about it? can i pay an extension fare or something?

2) is it a good idea to travel from tokyo to kyoto for the jidai matsuri on the 22th oct?(day trip)
