That Airbnb is such a good price! If you don’t mind, can you please share how you found it? 😊

[@IfWeGoTo]

It was a fantastic deal!! We stayed a bit outside of the "ideal" area, but still close to trains so nothing is too far! If it's your first time to Tokyo I would recommend staying more centrally though! :) To find good deals on Airbnb, set your dates/requirements on search and look around for cheap prices with good reviews! Longer stays (weekly or monthly) get you greater discounts usually! Planning ahead at least 2-3 months helps find better deals too. Options get slimmer the closer you get to your trip dates. If you want the link to our exact airbnb let us know!

The area of Asakusa you visited near Sen soji closes pretty early at night. At like 8pm or so it's almost a ghost town. Best to visit very early before the tourist rush and just before shops open to get what you want without waiting. I recommend visiting Ninja bar asakusa.

@@IfWeGoTo thank you!! I filled out the MySOS app right after you responded and they approved it so I think im good 😊

[@IfWeGoTo]

Awesome!!! Make sure you call your airline too just to double check, because they checked ours at the gate! They even made us talk to a manager because we had an ongoing ticket instead of a return! Lol. I’d imagine something from the department of health looks even more official though! Good luck!! And enjoy Japan! 😃

Yen is very low compare USD or Euros , this why it is cheap. Japan was never cheap until now. have fun enjoy your time there. thank you for sharing.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Oh yes, it is much cheaper than it used to be! It’s kind of nice because the US and Europe have gotten ridiculously expensive. We paid about 2000 yen for 5 apples right before we left. 😩 we will happily stay here a while!!

[@miobulle1112]

Fruits are always expensive in Japan , each time i got there i almost avoid to eat some and it is hard. But in some supermarket you can find good price , less than in the family market or seven/eleven or departement store food basement. In fact depending where you are staying , but if you do not stay in the tourist area , you can find fair price. For example i stayed a lot in the Nihonbashi's area and there price are good. Less tourist. ;) This is where i will stay again in January 23

[@IfWeGoTo]

Prices have been good for us for sure. I hope inflation doesnt go very high in Japan like it has in America. Thats awesome that you will be visiting again!

お二人の気持ちを思うと「お帰りなさい！」です。 仙台に来るなら会ってみたいし、良ければ案内もします。それほどに大歓迎です。

[@IfWeGoTo]

残念ながら、今回の旅は南へ行くことになりましたが、連絡を取り合い、ここでの別の旅行で私たちを案内してくれることを楽しみにしています!!

Do we still need a covid test if we are just laying over in Haneda en route to Bangkok?

[@IfWeGoTo]

I don’t think so, but I am not sure! I would check their government website before leaving to avoid any issues! 😃

[@PelaKavi]

@@IfWeGoTo thanks! Appreciate all the videos. Merci merci beaucoup

[@IfWeGoTo]

Anytime!! Have a safe trip! ❤️ When are you headed to Bangkok?

[@PelaKavi]

@@IfWeGoTo oui so were from Tahiti but just arrived to Hawaii yesterday. We leave from here to Tokyo on November 28. Then the absolute longest layover (30hours) in Haneda🤦🏽‍♂️ then leave for Bangkok Dec 1st. Mes amies, it will be amazing trip but Japan Airlines is hard to get in touch with. So here we are 😆

[@IfWeGoTo]

Oh that is amazing. One of our dream destinations, ❤️! That is a very long layover!! It may be worth it to enter Tokyo for the night!! If you’re triple vaccinated fill the MySOS app, and you’ll be good to go! If not the test may be worth it just to see Tokyo for a day if you haven’t been! 😃

はじめまして。ようこそ日本へ！ やっと日本も、駐車場のコインパーキングと病院以外は、現金支払いがほぼ無くなりました。 東京は味付けが濃いので、グルメを楽しむなら少し遠くへ出かけて下さい。 旬の食材を活かした郷土料理は、地方都市ごとに異なり多彩ですよ🎵 トンカツ、焼き鳥、お好み焼き、しゃぶしゃぶ、すき焼き…日本人が普段食べている和食は、寿司・ラーメン以外にとてもたくさんあるので、ぜひ堪能してください👍✨ セブンイレブンブランドの冷凍食品で、パスタやたこ焼などの食事も美味しいです。 ホテルに近いなら、お店で温めてもらうと良いですよ！ メロンパンやたまごサンドは朝食に。日本の美味しい栗のケーキ・モンブランや、シュークリームをおやつにぜひおすすめします。 日本のコンビニはクオリティが高く、旬な素材を取り入れているので、日本のグルメの縮図です。 どうぞ日本を存分に楽しんで下さい。 何か困った時、情報が欲しい時は、誰でも通りかかった人へ気軽に助けを求めて下さいね。 よほど急いでいる人以外は、親切にしてくれますよ！

[@IfWeGoTo]

私たちをあなたの国に迎えてくれてありがとう！私達はそれが大好き！！ 食事におすすめの地域は？東京だけでなく、探索できる場所がたくさんあることを私は知っています！ :) また、おすすめの野菜料理や健康料理はありますか? コンビニの商品をもっと試してみるつもりです、私は同意します、それらは価格に対して印象的です!! 貴重なアドバイスをありがとうございます。

[@kei07210]

都内でも、まずいレストランを探す方が難しいと思うので、適当に選んでも大丈夫です！ とんかつ屋、しゃぶしゃぶ屋、焼き鳥屋、お好み焼き屋、天ぷら屋…専門店で食べればハズレは無いです👌 季節的に、しいたけ等のキノコ類、ぎんなん、里芋、さつまいもは旬です。魚は、かつおのたたきならさっぱりしているので、彼でもチャレンジできると思います😊 日本で食べられる魚は500種類あります。居酒屋で旬の焼き魚や、刺身の盛り合わせを試してみれば、好みのものがあると思いますよ！カキフライもおすすめします🌱🌱 滞在先はどのエリアですか？宿泊を移動されるのですか？東京限定ですか？

[@kei07210]

神奈川県の鎌倉は伝統的な文化と建造物が残り、レストランも素晴らしいと思います。東京から１時間半位。 湘南モノレールのスリリングな乗り心地も楽しいかも🎵 kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2iciKCwoNeSisk 他には、静岡県の熱海、栃木県の日光なども日帰りできますよ！

[@IfWeGoTo]

素晴らしいありがとう！これらの食べ物のいくつかを探します！ 東京、河口湖、京都、奈良、大阪、神戸、姫路、広島に行きます！

[@kei07210]

10月26日に京都で時代祭りというお祭りがありますよ！ 京都はとても観光客が多いので、待つ時間が長いですが、その時間さえ周りの景色を楽しんで下さい。大学生くらいの若者になら、話しかけても楽しいかも。人気の観光地でありながら、機能的で無いと感じるかもしれませんが、人が住み、生活が生きている古都だからこその魅力を、感じられると思います👍 広島も行くのですね、ありがとう。 平和記念公園と、原爆資料館へ必ず行ってください。そして、ウクライナや他にも核爆弾の脅威にさらされている国へ、祈りを捧げて下さい。 宮島の厳島神社は、満潮だと厳かな景色。干潮だと、海中に建つ鳥居まで歩いて行けるのでお楽しみに🌱🌱
