Tokyo (thread 2)

[j_in_tokyo]

^ano ba pinagkaiba nung disneyland sa disneysea sis?

first, same lang silang theme park na nasa loob ng Tokyo Disney Resort. tig-1 day dapat i-allot para dito..
Disneyland is yung original theme park..mostly pambata mga rides dito..and mas famous sya.
Disyneysea naman although may mga pambatang rides din pero mas exciting mga rides dito for adults.
mas gusto ko sya actually kaysa disneyland dahil sa mga rides..

Kaya ba Tokyo and Osaka plus other nearby cities if 8 days siguro yung trip?

[honeyblue]

Anyone tried the guided tours of the Imperial Palace grounds? Worth it ba? TIA!

[Frozen Toes]

^^ We got to do Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe in 6 days with a JR pass. Pero hindi ako masyado mahilig sa tourist spots kaya napuntahan ko lahat ng gusto ko, except Ghibli Museum kasi sold out tickets.

Sis Frozen toes, can you please share your IT? It's my first time in Japan and I'm booked na ng Manila-Tokyo, Osaka-Manila on April 1-7. So 6 days din. TIA!

Mga sis meron ba kayong alam na filipino events and community sa tokyo?

[pinksuman]

hi mga sis!
wifi country ba ang japan? may nakita yata ako sa kristv or something that you can buy a card or something from the airport then unlimited use yata for a week then ibabalik din sa airport parang that sort of thing.

may ganun po ba? i will feel more convenient talaga pag may internet on the go para if maligaw or something.

may kasama kameng toddler and senior citizen kase. My family is coming from Singapore and hubby's family is coming from Pinas so magkikita na lang kame sa Osaka so goodluck sa amin.

Hi sisses! Is it ok to go to tokyo ng June? we're planning to go there june5-10...

[purple_bear_hugs]

Hi! Dito rin ba pwedeng pag usapan yung pag apply ng visa for japan? 15 days to 1 month kasi balak ko. I dont know how much should i have in my bank para maapprove since my relatives there (citizen) will be providing most of my expenses there. And Im still a student, may kelangan ba akong ipasa na documents from school to prove na i will not stay there longer than the duration of stay that will be granted to me if ever i wont be denied? And what agency is good for this? I heard some agencies kasi medyo snob and not so helpful.. thanks! Planning to go there april-june depende kung maaapprove ako. Thanks!

[scents01]

^sis meron tayong japan visa application thread dito to help you

but for starters like me too, you have to provide all the requirements coz the agency will not help you with it example, itinerary, guarantor letter etc. depends sa purpose ng visit mo.. i tried reli tours, 1,200 lang, almost one day processing lang, 30days tourist visa granted.. you can check their website for their contact details, okay naman sila..

haaay, super cold nga daw sa tokyo.. i'll be there this 21st.. ayoko na ng snow

Kami sis, we rented a pocket wifi. I reserved and paid online, then we picked up the wifi unit sa post office sa airport. Pauwi, dinrop-off din namin sa post office sa airport, using the prepaid return envelope they provided. You may opt to rent extra battery, but if you have battery pack, pwedeng yun na gamitin to recharge on the go. Sa pagkakaalam ko, major Japan airports meron sila pickup thru post office.

[FOURever]

^^thank you sis! Nakita ko rin yun sorry kung OT pala sana maapprove thanks!

[althea_ge]

Sis how much po yung rent sa pocket wifi?

[bagaholic_chewy]

Sis how much po yung rent sa pocket wifi?

I think we paid JPY9000 for 10 days rent. Global Advanced Communication yata name nung company. Higher ang rate pag mas maiksi ang duration, mas mababa if longer. Nasa website nila yung process and the rates 

[crazy_krizsa]

Pasali po...

Going to Japan on May 24-31 coming from Singapore.
So since first time namin and we are all kids at heart eto yung mga balak namin puntahan

- Disneyland
- Disneysea
- Sanrio
- USS
- Mount Fuji
- Hachiko

Ask ko lang mga sis, san area sa Tokyo yung like Orchard Road ng Singapore?  Na mention nyo yung Don Quijote, for sure pupunta kame dito at 24 hours shop pala sya so madaling masingit.

We will be staying in E hotel Shinjuku. May nakapag stay na ba sa inyo dito? I also wanna experience natural hot spring, meron ba nito near tokyo?
