Luggage and lockers Managing Your Luggage Review

Favorite thing:



At Narita International Airport, delivery service counters will send luggage to your hotel the next day or from your hotel to the airport for about ¥2,000 for bags up to 20 kilograms .

Coin-operated lockers are located at all major JR stations, such as Tokyo, Shinjuku, and Ueno, as well as at most subway stations.

Lockers cost ¥300 to ¥700 depending on the size.

rush hour train - Tokyo

rush hour train

Beating rush hour hell... Getting Around Review

Favorite thing:



First dont get caught in rush hour on a Tokyo train.....avoid this as much as you can..:)...

But if you do get on....well here are a few tips to get a sit......


Stand near seated junior high or high school students, whose uniforms are a clear signal they will be only on for a short distance and likely to vacate their seats soon...

Look at people who are sleeping, specially those who sit upright with their eyes lightly close are more likely to get off early...

Also women who touch up their makeup are preapring to get off.....
