Can you Travel to JAPAN on a LOW Budget? 🇯🇵

[@Foxontheroad]

The first time I came to Japan for a trip, I came with so little money that all I could afford ( if I wanted to get some warm food) was Matsuya curry. I ate it every single day but didn't get tired of it. I didn't even get to try sushi cause it was so expensive TT but I do think it is worth coming even if you don't get to buy all the funky things and go to all the fancy restaurants. Seeing these places with my own eyes was already the most enriching experience I could ever hope for... Plus Matsuya is still my favourite low budget restaurant even after 2 years of living here. Anyways, hope you get to come back soon 😍

[@kimdao]

Same!!! Hahah I are convenience store food everyday to save since I had no money haha. But yeah I was still so happy to be in Japan haha

[@Foxontheroad]

@@kimdao there are so many things we can enjoy im Japan for free 😇 have a great day!

[@pluviophile1988]

[@jessicawong8416]

That's messed up that people use your video and then claim it as their own and then get angry when you take your video down. That was so nice of Gabriel. More people should be like him and own up to it and apologize to you.

[@kimdao]

Yeah I got quite a lot to threatening emails because of that which makes no sense to me haha.

[@ca819]

Hi Kim Found your channel a few weeks ago and like it a lot. The content is exactly what I was looking for because my son and I finally plan to visit one of our favorite countries. Did you do a vlog about the diffrent restaurant chains they have? That would be quite interesting. Like where to eat breakfast or dinner, which chain is more like fast food and so on. Japanese dishes are my favorite of all but are there things to consider in Japan... Thanks a lot in advance and greetings from Switzerland! 🇨🇭

Well done video. It’s been 30+ years since I moved out from Tokyo. I’m thinking visiting there later this year if the Covid restriction is lifted at that time. Things changed so much in 30 years and I’m actually learning how to travel in Japan. Your video explains very well. Appreciate it. I know it takes great time preparing and editing videos.

[@lilRubii]

[@pennystringer9231]

Awww so so lovely to hear you chatting about Japan again! Makes me so excited to go again when we finally can!! ^_^

[@kimdao]

Yeah! I thought it will be good to chat to you guys about Japan again, it’s been so long since I have!

[@risakoiscoolwithm]

Yay a sit-down video~ Actually the bus from Narita Airport to Tokyo Station is super convenient now. It only costs 1000 yen! I've never tried to WILLER bus but the JR bus was pretty good. They also have Wi-Fi but no head shades.

[@Azura.Ashton]

yes, I would love those free Japan travel videos. Coming from Indonesia, I've traveled to Japan on less budget, haha .... took some lessons from your video during the planning period keep up the good work, keep inspiring (*thumb) ps : I'm watching from my laptop, don't know how to add emojis

[@katoliviea]

your japan videos are my fav!! I watched so many of your videos before I went to japan last year! I also recommend capsule hotels , I went to the millennials capsule hotel in Kyoto and the experience was amazing, I think it was around $30 a night! ☺️💕

[@lovelynix4775]

Can you maybe do a vid on basic language needed for Japan?

[@laurenchamberlain4907]

I've been thinking of going to Japan for a while now. It would be great to see your top 10 recommended destinations to visit in Japan

[@にこニコ-c8w]

In my trip this year (jan-feb) i spent around $3000-$4000(AUD). I went to tokyo (incl disneyss), hakone (hotsprings + gotemba outlet), kyoto, osaka (universal). Try out capsule hotels and business hotels for accommodations!!

[@didjaseemyjams1582]

Do capsule hotels have showers and lockers?

[@にこニコ-c8w]

Didjaseemyjams yep! I went to an all girls capsule hotel in akihabara and paid $30 ish which provided a locker with pajamas and towels! The shower rooms are in one big room but are in cubicles, and after the shower they provide cleaners, moisturizers and a hairdryer in a separate room. There were also designated lobby’s/chill rooms where people can talk to friends or do work. If u ever get thirsty or hungry during the night, they even have vending machines.

[@wilsonchavez8788]

[@mainecoonie9598]

Great video again!! Thumbs up 👍🏼 I’d like to watch a video about general travel tips!! You traveled so so much all around and made so many experiences so I’d like to know what tips and tricks you have all around traveling. From organizing to flying to the stay itself. Hope the grammar isn’t to bad 😅

[@SnoogyWoogy]

KZbin videos about traveling to Japan, many of which were yours, helped me a lot with planning the trip my friends and I took over Christmas and new years in 2018-19. So thank you for that. You mentioned in this video how Airbnb is an affordable option which is totally true especially for larger groups but it comes with a risk. I booked a 7 day stay in an airbnb over now years way back in August because I was warned how busy it is that time of year. less then 5 weeks before we were to arrive I got a notification that the owner of that airbnb had canceled our booking, giving no reason why. Now all the places within our budget were gone and I was left scrambling to find us a place. I ended up getting us a place that was still over our budget and ended up being way to small for the four of us. We made it work and still enjoyed Tokyo but it really was the worst part of the entire trip and caused us a lot of stress and poor nights sleep. This is just a warning for people using airbnb. I've used it a lot locally here in Canada but I am now weary of it when over seas since suddenly finding yourself with out a place to sleep is so much more scary in another country.

[@vortexk9276]

I Miss japan. Went from Fukuoka right up to the Zao fox village (in Shiroishi). JR rail pass was super handy while travelling between multiple Citys.

[@Vekachuu]

Although I will have to take a sighted person with me, I would love to go to Japan! So thank you so much for posting this and making your travel tip videos it means so much!!! 💜

Hi Kimdao, I whached your video as per Gabriel´s recomendation. Good video I went to Japan last year-

[@carefulconsumer8682]

Great advice. By avoiding expensive restaurants, you can save alot of money and use it for more travel.

[@gabrielestrada5378]

EN APOYO A TOP DE IMPACTO, POR EL TOCAYO SALUDOS!!,

[@rakechufernandez1273]

These are really good tips that I also follow when I travel to Spain. I always wished that people would know these things and do their research. You can tell when a person didn’t bother doing any research when they end up spending so much money simply because they fell in the tourist traps lol. I do plan to eventually go to Japan and definitely with at least one other person so good to know these tips. Thanx Kim!

[@kimdao]

Haha yeah definitely. I always tell people to do research first and not buy things without thinking.. e.g JR pass. I get asked that question so many times but to be it’s just common sense haha, add up ticket prices and see if it’s worth it? XD

[@dancinguntildawn1725]

[@26Sundrops]

Your content is always so helpful! It keeps inspiring me to re-plan the whole trip I was going to take when COVID-19 hit hahaha... very sad to have lost 15% of the value on two JR passes, each for 2 weeks, that I had to return. Totally wouldn't have been worth it for a trip from Tokyo to Osaka and back anyway though, so I wonder if the cost is actually better this way since I probably won't be replacing them. Who knows!

Great video Kim, I can’t wait to go to Japan someday!

[@notsokaren]

When it comes to learning Japanese, what was the method that worked for you? I’m not sure if you’re fluent, but you lived in Japan for a while so I know your Japanese is 1000x better than mine lol I’m trying to relearn the language on my own so I’m curious how others pick it up. Thanks Kim!☺️

[@kimdao]

I actually studied Japanese at university so when I moved to Japan it was a lot easier! The easiest way to learn is to make Japanese friends! Since I left Japan it’s hard to practice so I’ve forgotten a lot, but I used to spend a lot of time with my host family in Japan and that forced me to speak Japanese

[@natashaarnold3981]

I'm planning my first trip to japan for 2022/2023! Could you do a video discussing long trips in Japan. All the videos I find online are for a week or so

[@kimdao]

That’s a good idea! I could do that since I used to go for 4-6 weeks at a time

[@natashaarnold3981]

Amazing!! I got turned on to your videos because of the research for this trip! I love your videos, I also grew up in Perth. It's great to see someone else from Perth doing so well!

It's also my dream to travel to Japan, mainly because I love anime so much. Especially Detective Conan! If I go to Japan, the main event would definitely be Conan Town in Tottori (I was so hyped up when you mentioned this in your '100 Things to Do in Japan' video)

[@pev789]

I took my first trip to japan in February right before COVID hit *got really lucky* and coming from California tokyo in my opinion was really cheap! I think i saved a lot of money by not doing any big touristy things like Tokyo Disney, i had more fun just walking around taking in the beautiful neighborhoods eating and drinking at small local places i came across, and i booked a business hotel in Akasaka and I’m glad i did! It was right next to the station, it was big for western standards, and it was sooo nice! and everywhere in tokyo was only 10-15 mins away by train! Staying in like shinjuku or Shibuya can get expensive because its very touristy

[@TheAndyCraven]

I am considering going to Japan in March or May next year from Canada. Do you think things will be relatively back to normal at that time?

[@kimdao]

I really really hope so! Unfortunately I can’t predict anything, but I don’t recommend booking anything until Japan announces that borders are open. Getting refunds from airlines take ages and is a pain :(
