    To Tokyo experts, in which district should I book my hotel? Yung pag labas palang ng hotel madami ng shops and restaurants.

    Boybi, check mo Shiba-koen, Minato-ku. Malapit sa Ginza, Roppongi, Asakusa and others. Ano ba hanap mo? 3-star or 4-star hotel? Tsaka anong klaseng shopping? Kung type mo eh yung mga branded andun sa Ginza. Mga US$150-120 pax hotel dun. Kaso, mataga na ako napunta dun so hindi ko alam kung nag-change na rates/

    You don't want to have a front row seat in what the modern Japanese would use for national defense?

    Hold muna? Nge, huwag pare ko..... you can get cheaper rates sa airfare at hotels at this time...

    The prospect of a full fledge war is very remote. at most, naval skirmishes lang yan with sailors dead

    Roppongi or Ginza district kayo magstay kung gusto niyo shopping.....ubod lang ng mahal sa accomodation at food... 10 min away lang sila by subway

    you don't go to tokyo for shopping, besides, roppongi is not a shopping district, it's a place for bar hopping. . .as for ginza and it's high-end shops, just go sightseeing there, do your shopping elsewhere, if you have to hehhe

    Just to clarify my first post. I'm looking for a hotel near restaurants and some shops, and of course near the subway station. Gusto ko kasi while waiting for the others to ne ready, pwede muna magikot-ikot sa paligid ng hotel.

    It would be a family trip pala (with in-laws and their children, and mom-in-law).
    I've been to Tokyo and Osaka before, but I was with my wife only. On this trip, there will be a few kids (4-12yo). Kaya I need tips and suggestions for this trip.

    Up for this.

    Me and the wife will be on a 9 day trip.

    Inbound is Tokyo, then Pabalik kami to Manila from Osaka.

    This will be a DIY trip, I ask for a quotation from our travel agency they quoted me 120k per head. Pass kame ni esmi.

    My questions:

    1. How to divide the 9 days? Original plan is 5 days tokyo 4 days osaka/kyoto kami. Tama ba hati namin? Too short ba for tokyo? Too long for osaka?

    2. Dame ba free hotspots (wifi)? Do i need to avail roaming services? Smart subscriber ako, how much for roaming with mobile data per day?

    3. Actually wala pa kami finalized itinerary, One thing for sure pa lang is Disney sea and Universal studios Osaka. Any tips where to go? To eat?

    4. Yun unli train pass sulit ba?

    5. Tokyo to Osaka plan namin mag Shinkansen, pero mahal talaga. Compared sa budget airs nila. Worth it ba mag shinkansen? For experience na din kasi.

    Planning to do the same in december pa. Disneyland sa Tokyo and Universal Studio sa Osaka. Shinkansen on one leg and plane pabalik. Might the northern part for the winter experience din. P120k/head sounds expensive though.
