Thanks sis j_in_tokyo for the weather info, appreciate it

Sis chiena19, where will you be staying and are you getting tours from an agent or DIY style? I want to ask for your input sana. Your itinerary sounds exciting

[glamorous_aisha]

^sis sa day 1 mo anong shinjuku garden? yung gyoen ba? hanggang 3pm lang yung park na yun.
saan yung hotel niyo? medyo madilim na kasi after 6pm kung pupunta kayo sa meiji shrine baka wala na kayong makita eh yung walk inside meiji shrine pa naman ang maganda.

why not pag-sunurin niyo yung disneyland at disneyse? maghotel na lang din kayo in one of the hotels near disney resort. hindi ko sure pero alam ko may discount ata kung 2 day pass for both resorts ang kukunin lalo kung magstay kayo sa hotel malapit sa resort.

day3 hindi kaya ng 2 hours ang sanrio puroland. may kasama ba kayong bata? kasi puro shows lang sa sanrio puroland walang masyadong rides.

day5 medyo magulo ueno park muna kayo then ghibli? (kuha kayo ng ticket a month before ng trip niyo) unahin niyo na yung ghibli kasi medyo malaki yung ueno park then ikebukuro mas magkalapit pa.

sorry magulo ata explanation ko. haha

[chiena19]

@sis cheapangga we'll be staying at hotel sunroute plaza shinjuku. DIY lang sis kaya even train station mapping gagawin ko na para makasave sa travel time.

@sis glamorous_aisha super thanks sa inputs! pinaghiwalay ko yung sa disney para di masyadong pagod or baka iconsider na din namin checkin sa disney hotel. kaso masasayang ang one night namin sa sunroute.

yup sis, gyoen garden sana.

will revise the itinerary based on your recommendations, must see namin yung tokyo tower  on the first night

[cheapangga]

^ Been reading good reviews about your hotel sis chiena19. We inquired but fully-booked na daw so we got shinjuku washington instead. Please post your final itinerary ha so i can base ours with yours Thanks a lot sis!

[glamorous_aisha]

^no problem sis. itapat niyo na lang na hindi weekend yung disneyland at sea.sayang oras niyo kapag holiday or weekend. grabe pila mga 2-3 hours 1 ride. para di rin kayo masyado pagod.

Hi fellow GTalkers

I hope someone can answer, is it better to do DIY for the Tokyo City tour or join a travel group?
We are thinking if DIY is okay for the city tour.
These are the places the travel agency included in their city tour:

Tokyo Tower
Meiji Shrine
Asakusa Guest House
Ginza
Nakamise Walkway
Sensoji temple

Kappabashi
Ueno Park
Akihabara

We will be staying in Shinjuku area, we are thinking of roaming the city via train.
Thank you so much girls hope I can get a reply.
Mwah!- Cheskacutie

[gorgeous_me]

^ sis, kaya na siya ng DIY, for 2 days ba yan? o 1 day lang, hehe
hindi ko lang lam yung Kappabashi, hehe, pero nasa Ginza din ata siya, so pwede na tong DIY?
how much kapag City tour? may kasama ng food? hehe

[chiena19]

^ sis i think better DIY at least you can explore the place at your own pace. if the above itinerary is for 2 days kaya na yan. also yung skytree ata yung mas malapit sa asakusa

may benefit din yung group tour.. hindi ka maliligaw! but added spice kasi when you travel ang maligaw hehe minsan lang kami nagjoin ng group tour i find it mas nakakapagod and syempre the time spent waiting for others kahit 10minutes lang pwede ng ilakad na yun to see other places.
