I've been going to Japan in June /July and it's the best time as there are not a lot of tourists around. And even if it's raining there I still have a great time visiting different cities and towns. All you need a umbrella from 7-11 or Don Quixote and your set. Even if there was a typhoon I'll still enjoy myself because it's Japan. 😊 Your doing great .

I like Japan in the wet. As long as its not cold.

this is the least technical thing japan ever built

hello how the weather's at early june ? i will come to japan at 1 june

Such a shame the museum is closed but the views are fantastic and well worth the drive. Thank you Jake.

I think that Hokkaido is a bit run down compared to Honshu in my opinion. It might be due to the harsher conditions in winter or it's just a bit poorer up there.

Shibuya "Sky" suddenly emerged and vaulted to near the top of the list of places to see and visit in Tokyo. Like the High Line in NYC. An unexpected excessive success?

This place (Shibuya "Sky") is just too popular (and desirable) to avoid problems in organization and crowd control. Maybe building 3 or 4 of them might cool things down.

Thank you

Hello Sir, I will travel Tokyo 13-20 April, is it heavy rainy?

Hi Jake , when was the old station built?

Hi Jake, I would be most grateful if you can confirm if one is still able to redeem the JR exchange voucher at Shinagawa Station. I’m having difficulty finding this information. I note you advise three locations for redemption. Is this still available & are the opening times as explained in you informative video. Thank you.

We are from Wisconsin USA which is known for beer (home of Miller Brewing), so I will definitely need to make note of where you went!

I have heard to avoid Golden Week from many travel videos, so I wonder if it's not as busy because people are trying to plan around it! Thank you for making the video, it's interesting to see how crowded places get during different travel periods.

Looked pretty good really. Not so busy.

<3

This is an important video thank you, we are planning another visit and the biggest consideration is the timing, April is top month because we would like to watch the F1 racing but is September is better for cheaper costs. Too many nice dilemmas. 😊

Hay jake, i will travel to tokyo on 7-16 june. Is it rain in those date? Or give me recomendation the better date in june-july. Thank you

Thank you. As I follow your RUclips videos on Japan, I have identified a couple of places within the US, where I would lead a quiet life with nature for a total of four months as well as explore hot springs within a two hour drive from my house in Virginia. In the US, health services for me are essentially covered and language is not an issue. There are also trips to NY City and upstate to visit kids and grandkids and they coming where the kids grew up in i.e. Virginia and Washington DC (with all the free museums). Not bad for a person who started some 44 years ago in the US with nothing. Japan may have to wait till JTB can organize train/plane based trips like they used to before COVID. It's a way of acknowledging that I'm 70 years old with health challenges after all. Wish you all the best.

You must have been full after all that.

Nice trip

ANA property was also my choice because it is where the Hot Spring hotels pick you up from i.e. those who are non-residents and don't want to take the risk of hefty fines (USD 1000 type) from mistakes in driving. So rental car or pick up services both use this old refurbished centrally located facility. By the way, my May 2024 trip had to be cancelled as my primary care doctor found the risk (of heart failure) to be too high. With weight loss I may be able to take the trip next year.

Where is this place, address?

great vid!

nice vid !)

Jack, thank you so much. I deeply appreciate it. 😊

Hey Jake, I'll be in Japan for 2 months in June and July. Let's meet up for lunch or dinner.

Hi Jake, very good video. I’m wondering is it the same for transfer from Haneda airport. The trip is like this, I will use the Suica from Haneda airport to Tokyo. At the transfer gate, I will buy the Shinkansen ticket from Tokyo to Utsunomiya. As I have yet to tap out my Suica card, I’m thinking it could be just like what you have shown. Meaning after I buy the Shinkansen ticket at the transfer gate, when I enter, I insert the paper ticket, then tap the Suica card to end my local train trip. Hope you can share some light in this scenario.

Thank you for showing everyone these places. Was the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame designed to look like the Glass Pyramid?

Good fun on the garbage mountain.

Hi Jake-san, I hope you're doing well. Thank you for the video, I have nothing else to say but please stay safe for the upcoming summer season, I heard it's going to be rough just like last year. Or... are you planning to stay in Hokkaido for the whole summer? 😂

What you put yourself though for us Jake! “It was tough”! “You don’t need to go up the slope”! I’m dying! 😂 All that is needed is a slide to come back down! 😊

Did you go underground through pole town when you were in Sapporo.

Very windy.

Hi When you pick up your jr pass , they Still ask for stamp in your passport ( customs ) ??? Thanks

Are there two types of Shinkansen tickets? Your video showed one type that you have to settle the fare at the local exit. There's another ticket that says, "Tokyo-hen", for exiting any Tokyo area station. Maybe it's not sold anymore?

I am planning to take Shinkansen from Kyoto to Shinagawa and then take Keikyu line to Kuramae station. If this is the case, I only need to insert my shinkansen ticket and then use my IC card to get on Keikyu line to Kuramae station. Am I correct? How do I know if I need to insert shinkansen ticket and IC card at the same time when I pass through the gate?

I am so glad we will get some rain instead of heat

Love from India ❤

How about reserved seats ticket? Do you enter both?

I bet you were the only one who got off the shinkansen at Shinagawa.

Stuck my head into Shibuya Metro during peak after work time, one look at that sea of faces coming towards me and I wimped out and decided to walk! 😅 So this video is very useful for my next visit thank you! 😊

Reminded me of my cruises. This was short and sweet. You look like you have "sea legs" i.e. the choppy-ness of the sea doesn't bother you. Was the food free?

At least not as hot as the summer. We don’t have the choice for summer break. Compare heat and rain, I choose rain.

Looks like fun. Was it full? I have heard that the long distance ferries are not doing so well financially these days.

Wow that's a long time to get to Hokkaido. If you fly, is it like around 2 hours? So you can have time to go far east (6 hours) to explore Hokkaido. Plus the sleeping pod is too small. What was the price for 17 hours ferry ride?

Hi Jake,we are in Tokyo next month. Beginning of May 26 to June 10. Will that be rainy season?

Why would pple go on aug? Is super hot.. probably buy those cheapskate air fare promo..
