How to Spend 4 Days in KYOTO 2024- Japan Travel Itinerary | Travel Update 2024 | For First Timers!
My dad said that we will go to japan in august since i have summer break every august and july, i wanteed to spend 20 days in japan august, but there other month needs to be 5 or 3 days
I am a 57 years old woman and I take medicines for blood pressure so I had to take this medicines with me to Japan, but it was not a problem, as well as pain medicine.
I just returned from Tokyo today, after having spent almost three weeks there, and (having visited some of the countryside and Mt. Fuji as well), September was sunny almost the entire time. Except for usually around 32C weather, which was often humid, it was still somehow wonderful. Some Japanese friends who live there were more than happy and anxious to show me around. There was barely any rain during most of September, 2024, but if I (hopefully) visit again, I would definitely come in October, before any other month! Except for the confusion of the massive Shinjuku Station at first, I even managed to get around Tokyo by myself at least four times. What an incredible place!
Can post a link to the Japanese government website what prescription medications are hallowed
When I was there in April most places required that you buy $50 worth of stuff before getting the tax exemption. They didn't seal anything that I bought.
Oh! Thank you for sharing your real experience. It's very helpful for other tourists!
Flying to Japan next week and I'm pretty sure I'll use all these tips! 👍
I'm glad I could help you. I hope you have a wonderful time in Japan.
I ate at a Gyukatsu and they had a tip box by the cashier
Oh really. I think it's a donation box to someone.
I hate your video pretending to talk English and that stupid voiceover you use. It’s so sad.
Toshi!!!!! Thank you for talking about not spending to much money on drinks!!!! This will help me very much on my trip to Tokyo in June!! See you then!
I'm glad I could help you. I hope you have a wonderful time in Japan.
Man those American friends 😅
Yes. It's because I lived in the US before.
Hi Toshi, is there any apps or websites that we can use to check the weather forecasts while in japan?
"Weathernews" is very popular in Japan. global.weathernews.com/your-industry/mobile-internet/
Toshi - hello! do you offer tour guide in Tokyo?
Yes. Please contact me on my Instagram or via email. Instagram ID: toshi.0920 toshi.guide.channel@gmail.com
Hi! Is that Capsule Hotel / Cabin popular in Japan?
Yes. It's so popular in Japan.
Thank you Toshi. Where can I get a Japan Train IC Card like a monthly membership when I usually use the train to travel around tokyo? (like from Waseda University to Higashimurayama, Hagiyamacho)
You can also buy tickets from a ticket machine, but it might be a little difficult. In that case, please buy your ticket at a manned ticket counter called the Midori no Madoguchi.
@@Toshi-Guide-from-Japan is Midori no Madoguchi at the Haneda Airport? In that case, what Train IC Card you recommend to me? (Like a Suica or JR Pass). I have plans to go to Tokyo for 4 months, starting November 2024 until March 2025.
Thank you 🙏 for the advice - my last trip in Tokyo ends up with lots of coins.
Oh! I hope you come back to Japan to use those coins.haha
Being from a top 5 most dangerous city in EU, i find it so funny when people talk about 'danger' in Japan, I wonder how people who think like this would do here.
6. About coins - it is useful to have ¥100 coins for some self service car parking, luggage storage lockers etc.
Thank you for sharing your real experience. It's very helpful for other tourists!
And laundry machines. Extremely useful. In fact, I had to manage my coin accumulation to ensure I had enough.
I am in Japan for my dream holiday I have been to Disney Tokyo sea Mt Fuji been to Disneyland, Tokyo Tokyo Tower imperialPalace I’ve been to hello Kitty land and tomorrow off to Osaka Kyoto for a day trip when I am in Osaka and going to Universal studios Osaka
Oh!! Thank you for sharing your real experience. I hope you have a good time in Japan!!!!!
i want to add that there are stores where visitors are paying much more for food than it normally cost especially at tourist spots so be aware of what things normally cost and dont spend a fortune on food
Thank you for sharing your real experience. It's very helpful for other tourists!
Dear toshi : 2 things. Uber does work in japan i used it in osaka. And about the tax free it’s very but very bad to keep it sealed and must show them at departure. I found it very bad for privacy and don’t want to use it ever again ! I prefer pay the extra 10 percent only and don’t get fined or interrogated when exiting japan ! This is really bad for japan !
@@shaysegev2107 We departed Japan today, and used the tax free. We didn't have to show anything at departure. I think they just do random checks, and not every passenger.
@@davidac76 yes but it makes you scared of being stopped and checked and maybe big fine. I don’t like it I won’t buy tax free never again it doesn’t worth the tension going like that to the airport. This is big minus to japan.
@shaysegev2107 @davidac76 Thank you for sharing your opinion and real experiences. Those are very helpful for other tourists!
Any regular person wouldn't have an issue with that lol
I caught Uber multiple times in Japan. Sometimes a taxi came, other times a private driver.
Thank you for sharing your real experience. It's very helpful for other tourists. Actually, in Japan, you can receive a dispatch service from a taxi company that has a contract with the Uber app. The drivers are professional, not normal drivers. Therefore, the price is higher than a regular Uber. However, from the customer's perspective, the service content may not be different.
Thank you for the information 😊
I'm glad I could help you.
Toshi, i user Uber in Tokyo 3 days ago, from Shinjuku to Haneda, it was 9500¥, i had a lot of luggage so it was the best choice for me. But for shorter distances it could be worth, i used it for a 10 min ride and it costed almost the same as i would have spent with the bus, + you know in advance how much the ride costs. Anyway fantastic video and keep on updating us 🙏🙏

Hello Toshi, Where is a good place to exchange money in Tokyo? I'll be landing in Narita Airport, but other than ATMs, where could I find good exchange rates from euro to yen in tokyo? Maybe someone knows a specific exchange shop? Thank you 😊
Ticket ranger in shinjuku/nishishinjuku. It’s like 10 min walk from the west exit
Hey, friend! I have a running excel sheet I keep for myself as I go to Japan often for work. I use USD, but these rates should be comparable to Euro insofar as how good each service is. Note that I included TravelEx as they're famously the worst just so you can compare: ------------ 7-11 ATM: $100 USD = ¥14,200 Ticket Ranger: $100 USD = ¥14,017 Sakura Currency Service: $100 USD = ¥14,500 TravelEx (for comparison): $100 USD = ¥13,771 ------------ I tried to summarize, but those rates above include the current exchange rate, and their exchange fee. Any ATM (like 7-11) will be different depending on your bank and if they charge you fees on top of the ATM. I have no fees with my bank, so it's typically a 2% fee. Both Ticket Ranger and Sakura are comparable though as well. They advertise "no commission/no charge", and basically make their money as a result of having a lower exchange rate than some places so it's factored into the exchange. Often they are cash only as well, but I'm sure this is dependent on the location you go to. All that said, 7-11 is generally my recommendation if you are withdrawing cash using card, but if you already have cash then Sakura Currency or Ticket Ranger will all give you a comparable and fair exchange. :) Hope you have a great vacation!!
Thanks for The Basket info! I'll look for it on google maps 😊 VERY IMPORTANT Give me info about the weather please. It's still hot during the day and cool at night, right? According to the weather forecast, it is 30° during the day and around 20° at night. I'll go to Tokyo, Kyoto but also to Nikko, Fuji san, Shirakawa, Takayama, Kiso valley and Koya san. I don't know how to dress. Help me 😅
When are you coming to Japan? If it's now, it's better to wear short sleeves during the day and long sleeves at night. I hope you have a wonderful time in Japan.
@@Toshi-Guide-from-Japan I'll coming from 21 october from 3 november. Autumn is delaying...
The question we all are still asking ourselves: 711, Family Mart, or Lawson? 😂
Yes, those convenience stores. They are more expensive than supermarkets.
Thanks You sooooo helpful means a Lot
Thank you!! I'm glad I could help you.
Not first, but great video!
Thank you!!
thank you
Thank you!!
Thanks!
Oh, thank you very much!! I'll do my best!
We're @ the airport now. About to depart Japan. The past 2 weeks have been awesome. I love Japan. We'll be back again. 👍
I'm glad to hear that!!! I hope you come back to Japan soon.
The fact is that Japan has amazing multiple mass transportations in fact just experiencing it is sometimes worth it. I am not against spending money on such it's a vacation and experiencing such things as the unique bussing and don't know about you but a private bus cabin looks intriguing and others like the ferrying and trains many different ways to travel. I don't know if you covered it yet but I am very interested in understanding more about it. One thing I heard about but wasn't able to do was buying a folding bike in Japan for more easily getting around. What are your thoughts on this option. I mean I probably just leave it there not wanting to take it home would such be possible.
Thank you for sharing your opinion and advice. I think buying a folding bike is a good idea. Depending on the size, you can take them on public transport. Also, it might not cost that much if you can sell it when you leave Japan.
thanks for info❤
I'm glad I could help you.
Great tips as per usual.
I'm glad I could help you.
@@Toshi-Guide-from-Japan You are a huge help to travelers going to Japan.
People in Japan walk on the left of the sidewalk too.
Yeah! Thank you for sharing.
Ill be coming to live in Japan soon from the U.S for work. Will probably be there for 5 years. Never been before tho so dont know what to expect.
Oh, I hope you have good experiences in Japan!
Don’t travel to Japan that’s all I would say
if you're a drug or nicotine addict yeah

こういう人は日本に来なければいい
I have been to Japan twice, spending several weeks in different cities, and at least half of all Japanese people use their smartphones while walking. Maybe the older generation doesn't, but the younger ones definitely do.
Strictly speaking, it's not good. But many Japanese people do it too as you mentioned...
I usually find japanese social norms a little to extreme but these are things I'd love to see in my country! Especially no walking while looking at your phone and the escalator rule.
Thank you for sharing your opinion!

Hi, i got a tourist visa for my travel in October 2024. Do i need to enter details in Esta system? Please let me know.
Not necessary at this time. No specific start date has been announced yet.
I used my phone a lot while walking in japan to not get lost (google maps), was that bad?😅
Strictly speaking, it's not good. But many Japanese people do it too.
