No free one. Tah pao Jap girl you cannot unless you speak Jap. Tah pao replica Jap, like China girls is about US$250 minimum.

Not so easy to find as well unless you have friends to bring you, otherwise u kenna conned like Kenntona who paid US$300 for an obasan

Who told you go Japan got Free and Easy? Slap him/her

Re: Tips for free and easy Japan trip please

i heard also, go Japan, gaijin u will kenna PRC pretending to be Jap at least 20000-30000Yen... hearsay... i too poor to bother, go vending look at panties instead....

are u going to stay in Tokyo or travelling elsewhere?

The train is a cost efficient and easy manner of transport, try to search up guide books which make reference to the sights / shopping areas near the train stations, then depending on your budget, try to try some nice jap food

Re: Tips for free and easy Japan trip please

tokyo only? its food n shopping.

hotel - i only stay at ginza seiyo.

food - if u r into michelin stars...both these 2 will blow u away....
world best sushi at mizutani ginza Sushi Mizutani - Best Sushi in Tokyo?! [Review] - Japan - Chowhound about 400+ per head
or kaiseki at ryugin Nihonryori RyuGin - HOME 350+ per head

other worthy food places include Torijin http://www.torigin-ginza.co.jp/eng.html
ten-ichi at sony building ginza for tempura
birdland and isehiro for yakitori

i strongly suggest a one night at hakone.
take kodama express from tokyo station to odawara n then transfer to hakone yomoto for the hakone tozan rail. stay at GORA or Ginyu ryokan
THE RYOKAN COLLECTION
kodama express takes 35mins to reach odawara. all in about 2 hours max to check in. kodama is a shinkansen n they leave tokyo station every 30mins. no need to book in advance. n no need to book reserve seats.

shopping area in tokyo - ginza, omotosando, shinjuku shibuya or marunochi.....i prefer ginza n omotosando hills or tokyo midtown.

JR Line

Shinjuku stop - shopping
Shibuya stop - shopping
Harajuku stop - shopping ( teenagers)
Ueno - walk towards the temple, on the left side of the temple go abt 50m got one shop selling tempura. very good..abt 2000-3000 yen per bowl
akihabara - electronic town..go on a sunday .. lots of cosplay on the streets..lots of electronic stuff

streets closed on sundays for shinjuku and akihabara


just use JR line if ur just staying in tokyo..quite easy since its a circle line

i don shop in ginza and otomosando...no $$$ :p

Re: Tips for free and easy Japan trip please

Thanks all.

I probably stay just 2 nights in Tokyo and want to go out of Tokyo for relaxation/food/sight seeing trip. Which routes/ places to recommend ?

I've been to Tokyo many times on business BUT I want to try exploring outside of Tokyo, either thru buses or train :)

Toto, your recommendation is good, will try a few, probably will burnt a hole in my pocket for those ex food :)

Any advice pls.
 
Re: Tips for free and easy Japan trip please

just do it. steven. be glad that money can make u happy. its the stuff that money cant buy thats harder to find, but pls book in advance for the hakone ryokans as well as ryugin n mitzutani. u will be glad u went.

gora ryokan serves a very good kaiseki backfast as well as dinner.
