Going to Tokyo Next January, Please Give Me Some 1st Time Tips for Weebs
I've compiled a list of some sorts of what I should do, but just wanted more input.
-
Download Google maps of Tokyo area (for offline use)
-
Google Translate with Downloaded JP Package (for offline use, I have to check if this is reliable).
-
Get a Suica card, most transactions can use Suica Cards
-
DiDi Taxi App (tourist friendly taxi app).
-
Book an AirBnB instead of a hotel (bonus if AirBnB gives out Portable Wifi)
-
Buy data sim/portable wifi in the airport (expensive but useful if no other options).
-
Try International data instead
Hopefully I'll have time to visit some real life anime places like
-
Gyonmae Park in Shinjuku (Garden of Words).
-
Cafe La Boheme (Your Name)
-
ofc Akihabara
What other tips/places can you give to this weeb.
You're viewing a single thread.
If you want a cheap shinkansen pass, buy it before the trip from outside the country. It'll cost a lot more once you're there.

Speaking of trains though, I'll be landing in Narita Airport and I remember seeing that the train from Narita to the heart of Tokyo is expensive or something.

1 0 ReplyAh fair enough. If you’re walking around and like the film “Your Name” you should go check out the stairs at Suga Shrine.
1 0 ReplyI think I have the list of places found in Your Name, hopefully I can go to at least one.
