I just landed in Tokyo yesterday and it’s my first time here. I can not thank you enough for your past videos I had binged the past month. The tips and everything worked wonders and this one tops it off
also pro tip, if you're only going one or two stations, walk! the most amazing places you'll find during your trip is between stations. though you might wanna mesure destince first if you dont have good walking shoes / not used to walking.
Google maps train timings are a life saver. So accurate and trains are never late in Japan. Same for buses. Seeing the intervals for special rapid/limited exp/shinkansen (and their respective types like nozomi etc) makes planning a lot easier
There should be a 711 or something in the airport. Sometimes they sell internet cards cheaper than the booths/stalls. 711 dont do pocket wifi as far as I know but sim cards are available. You have 4 things to achieve outside of personal luggage at the airport. Wifi access, JR railnpass if you went that route and a trip from airport to city center/hotel. It can be a bit confusing at first. Dont forget a SUICA or PASMO card, they are gold. You can find those 2 option at airport if I remember correctly and any transit station.
Great video guys , I also use some of these tips especially the walking one , it's definitely better to not press start when walking it gives you a birdseye view and better direction
Wow thank you so so so much on teaching us how to use the Japan train… I get confused and lost everytime time I’m in Japan… glad google map is so detailed to use in Japan
We had problems with trains, google maps was sending us on an express train which was not stopping at the station we wanted to go to. It somehow didn’t differentiate between express and local trains. So better check time and platform and type of train! Problem is, you have to know if the station is served by express trains or not.
thanks for the video Harblife. I did not know quite a few of the tips especially tips 9 and 10 and not pressing start for the walking. the last one i did when i was in tokyo and boy was i confused or disoriented many times!
I am so glad to gain a great subscriber like yourself! I always appreciate a great contributor to the community like yourself! Please join our amazing discord community if you have any planning questions , and I hope to see you in the future 🥰
Great video, but at 5:40 you skipped over THE MOST confusing part about navigating the Japanese train system, which is "Heading to the right train station and the right platform". Any tips on that?
We are on vacation now in Japan. This video has been a great help. I do have a question. We started using our JR Railpass yesterday. When we tell Google Maps we want to visit a certain location, it offers multiple train options. We don't know which one is offering us a route that will allow us to use the JR pass for at least part of the trip. Is there a way to filter the options to show us only those that include the JR rail for some of the trip? Thanks
Thanks for sharing. This is helpful for my upcoming trip. Any way to know if you’re taking a JR Rail route? I’ll be taking day trips from Osaka to Nara and Kyoto and will have a 7 day JR pass. I’ll also be using it to go from Osaka to Tokyo twice.
Great tips I have a suggestion for a video you could do I see a lot of people complaining about clothing sizes if you could find a bunch of clothing stores that have Gaijin clothing sizes that would be pretty useful. Happy New Year.
It's a good idea actually. I'll add it to my list and see how I can work that idea. I don't know if it will go well with a full length video, but maybe I could cram it into a RUclips short 👍
Awesome video and info on our trip I used apple map It's much more simple to use and straight forward does 80% of what Google does google at time was more confusing, to look for options to eat use google maps has way more options than apple, Apple uses less data and drains your battery less and Google is just uses way to battery, that is what I found on my trip, wish you had this video out before our trip because it would have help so much, keep up the good work happy new year
Google maps is a must! In my experience it was pretty awful in Shibuya due to going in and out of buildings. Lucky I think Shibuya was pretty easy to navigate after a couple days without it. One thing I wish I did know before going, its ok if you miss a train (unless its the last one of course), just take the next one. I missed the first train I needed to take when I arrived and it was pretty stressful for no reason lol.
LOL it's pretty bad there. I was looking for the big liquor store above shibuya crossing and It was a 45 min search. Maps was jumping like a mob of frogs scattering from a predator. I ended up giving up at the intersection where the store was. I happened to look to my left and saw It was under my for a good 20 min...
@jonathan7190 ya usually if I am lookiing for a common thing like a conbini in a big station, I usually just walk out of the station and go to one that's easier to locate
I hope you reply to my question soon because I’m traveling soon… what are the steps to change the Shinkansen since nozomi is not included in the JR pass?
Is there a time indicator for train arrival on Google maps so I know which train to take it seems easier to determine the train by time of arrival instead of time of departure. Thanks
Hey Harb! Thanks for creating good content for us who are planning a trip - we're visiting in february. I am from Scandinavia, and I do feel a bit worried about the crowds and public transport. Tokyo especially is a large city, and Im afraid it will be a bit overwhelming. Do you have any words of wisdom that will help? :)
Thanks for the kind words! I actually visited Copenhagen recently, and loved it! As for navigating Tokyo, as long as you understand all the tips from this video youll be good to go! If you need to see more, I have another train video on this channel you can check out!
I found google maps absolute crap when it comes down to check routes to other cities . As example from Tokio to furano . From furano to osaka . It Shows with shinkansen between 12 and 14 hours . Ridiculous! So a flight is a must i guess ?
I have a question. Is it true you have to pay all your medical bills in order to travel to Japan? I read on a Japan safety website that it’s possible to get rejected from flying if you have unpaid medical bills.
I use Google maps. I have the 'avoid tolls' on all the time, but it continuously tries to send me on toll roads, no matter what city/state I'm driving in. Every exit, there is a message to get on the toll road, so you need to know the map a little to not get sent where you don't want to go.
Google maps really helped when commuting by in Tokyo. I gave myself extra few minutes when to get on the train, which platform, and which train car to get on from point A to point B. It wasn’t that hard. The only slow part is how to get the Suica card at first. Pocket wifi was definitely needed to navigate and to translate when asking questions. I rented pocket wifi from the Philippines (BigSkyPH).
Agreed! Google maps is a huge asset for anyone visiting or living in Japan! The suica card was pretty tricky as well. You had to know what ticket booth to use.
Hello.. i would be travelling soon to japan. i see some routes from google maps that will say 'remain on board'- does this literally mean you don't leave the train you're in? And the train will change track lines? Appreciate your helpful response. Thanks for the contents!
Hi, came back from Japan. I would like to thank you for your videos that helped us in our visit. From this video on how to use google maps to the alternative sites you can go, your videos were very helpful! More power in making videos that help people navigate Japan. Best of luck always! Thank you again.
Are there anyway in Google Maps to turn off Shinkansen routes for longer distance travels? Wanted to plan something like riding local trains from Tokyo to Osaka (I'm aware of the time it will take, purely wanting to experience the longer route) but Maps just straight up not showing non-Shinkansen options.
If they are over 18, you will probably have to get them to sign up on their own visit Japan website profile. It would honestly be easier to do it this way too.
Thanks for the kind words! I'll see if I can make time, but my schedule is pretty packed with filming and making videos for the next few weeks :(. Hit me up on my business gmail to talk more about it offline.
Hi! May I ask what it means if the color of the line changes but without any break? Does that mean the train you are riding on will go to a different line? (I hope I was able to explain myself clearly because I cannot upload a screenshot 😅)
@@harblife Thank you so much! I'm excited to put to use what I learned from your video. Our first trip to Japan back in 2018 was a mess because we kept getting on the wrong train. 🤭 Hopefully this year will be much better now that I've learned a few things from your video. 😄

i’m arriving from narita airport - heading to tokyo then going to kyoto - from there i’m planning to go to kawaguchiko then shinjuku! then back to narita airport (all those in 10-11 days) i saw the jr pass has only 7-14 days
Hello my youtuber friend, how are you doing? well, i am traveling to Japan in March 2023 from usa. so, i am preparing anything that i can before traveling. is there anything i need to know or need to do intern of documentation when i arrived to Japan (airport), such as immigration, registration, etc... hope to hear from you soon, thank you :)
Hey there! I have another video covering all these questions! Look for any of the videos that have entry requirements in the title, and you should be good to go!
Ok thank you i just checked them out great info. I think you was mention about you are living in Japan for many years. So anyways just wonder how is the weather in early March? Still cold?
Is there a possibility that all of the restrictions because of Covid will be removed before May in Japan? A PCR-Test at the airport costs more than 200 euros over here at the moment. Have you heard anything? greets
the active walking map sure does make things confusing. cant remember how many times it went bonkers on me... the passive screen worked best for me. i cant stress enough to follow the recommended exit, save you alot of confusion.
@@harblife my trick in those high building intersections was to pick likely direction and let the passive mode recenter where I was again. Sometimes half a block or one block was sufficient to see if I was going in right direction.
@jonathan7190 That works too. It's always annoying to figure out if you're going the right way. I find that zooming in all the way helps figure out if you're going the right way or not.
Hey thank you for sharing this video!! I just want to share you that there is always love, hope, forgiveness of sins and eternal life in Jesus.

You could use the Navitime app. That one will help filter out how to get from point a to point b with only using JR lines. Hope this helps!
Thank you. I will visit Japan in spring and heard that jorudan is useful. If I use Google Maps, do I still need jorudan?
Never heard of that app so I can't really say. Google Maps should be enough though. It's been enough for me and I live out there!

I hope you reply to my question soon because I’m traveling soon… what are the steps to change the Shinkansen since nozomi is not included in the JR pass?
You just have to check the schedule for when you can take a shinkansen that will accept JR Pass. You can use the reservation system to find that out!
Is there a way to filter out other trains so those with JR pass can just search for JR trains?
Try using Navitime. Other than that, google maps will have you covered for everything else!
Is there a time indicator for train arrival on Google maps so I know which train to take it seems easier to determine the train by time of arrival instead of time of departure. Thanks

i saw the jr pass has only 7-14 days
would appreciate your help🥹
Only get it if you're going to travel via Shinkansen multiple times. If not, stay clear of that pass.
Only you missed is how to actually order a taxi if you're not at a train station already. Otherwise, great video!
It's the same as hailing a taxi in other countries. Also you have to go to a major road that's where you'll find most taxis transiting.
Hello my youtuber friend, how are you doing? well, i am traveling to Japan in March 2023 from usa. so, i am preparing anything that i can before traveling. is there anything i need to know or need to do intern of documentation when i arrived to Japan (airport), such as immigration, registration, etc... hope to hear from you soon, thank you :)

Depends on the hotel!

With China opening up, I doubt it will happen any time soon :(. Believe me, if there are anymore entry updates, you know you'll hear it from me!
When i use google maps on my android phone it does not have the option line as your video shows why is that?
Have you selected the route to take?
Does train = subway ?
Yes it does! Pretty interchangeable term in Japan.
How do I differentiate from google maps which line is a jr line vs the tokyo metro/toei line?
Unfortunately you can't. You can tell if it's a metro line if you see a blue crown-looking M next to the station name, though.
Surived 21 days cOz of google maps

Very few taxis can do this. The most common ones are only going to hold 4 people. Look for the big van taxis to have a chance at more capacity.
