Help Me Add on to this List of Tips in Travelling in Japan
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
- I had only good and accurate experiences booking hotels and whole places on Booking.com.
- My sim card was through Sakura Mobile but I found its speed was bad around Tokyo. I had much better luck with iVideo pocket wifi rental.
- Buy a coin purse when you arrive, and keep cash on you.
- 100% try tsukemen over ramen, stuff was delicious!
- Comfy shoes -- if you can fit them, pack two pairs. Switch them out each day so the foam decompresses.
- Take the train an hour or two out of Tokyo to somewhere like Kamakura or Hakone when you need a break from the city.
- Make time to visit a real onsen -- it's an experience you won't get anywhere else!
