      We found cheaper to order SIM thro Qoo. Mailed to you within two weeks tho our arrived same week we ordered. Even JR Tanjong Pagar not as cheap, but bought JR, DisneySea & USP fr them. Keep receipt in case u need refunds.


      You can go many times to clarify yr itineraries or rail routes, etc. The staff are very knowledgeable & can advice tourists spots & how to take shorter routes or cluster your tour spots to maximize yr precious holiday time.

            Hi My_Pillow,

            Got the Yokoso SIM card. I think it does not tie with telco but should be ok. DH bought fr Yokoso SG Pte Ltd, & they sent fr Spore address. Oh just noticed the package says NTT Docomo telco.

            Bought online but their delivery fr Spore address that's why so efficient.

                I'm thinking to buy the disneypass from klook. I will be staying at a Disney hotel. In this case, can I still enter earlier which is the benefit given to hotel guests?

                Only Universal Studio Japan has the option to buy express pass, which allows you to skip the queue or join a shorter queue.
                In Disneyland and Disneysea, you have to grab the fastpasses which is available for selected rides. I bought a 2-day combo for both Disneyland and Disneysea from Klook when I went in June. I stayed at the Hilton Tokyo bay hotel which was really convenient to get to the themeparks too.

                If you're going to the themeparks, do download these apps that shows you the estimated waiting time and if they are open for that day
                - RideWaitTimes
                - TokyoDin


                I blogged about my experience about how we planned our Japan family trip and where we bought our JP passes too. Hope this may be useful for your planning, https://ajugglingmom.com/planning-our-japan-summer-family-holiday/

                  Will be travelling to Tokyo in early Dec. As there are 7 of us, am thinking of taking private transport from Narita to hotel. Would anyone has any contact? Thanks.

                    Am planning on trip to Nagoya in Jan 2018. Need some advise on transportation as maiden trip.


                    Day 1 Nagoya to Takayama
                    Day 2 Takayama to Shiragowa
                    Day 3 Takayama KIV Shinhotaka Ropewat
                    Day 4 Takayama to Nagoya
                    Day 5-7 Nagoya

                    Shoryudo Highway Bus Ticket seems like good value but am worried about only booking for the bus tickets on day of arrival and not being able to reserve seats. Anybody tried this?

                    Hidaji Free Kippu - any idea if can prebook the train/bus tickets before we arrive in Japan?
                    http://railway.jr-central.co.jp/tickets/hida/index.html

                    TIA
