tokyo+osaka or hokkaido better? are they near each other?
tokyo+osaka or hokkaido better? are they near each other?
japan is big, tokyo, osaka, hokkaido are all not near each other. tokyo to osaka is about 500km (abt the distance of sg to ipoh), and tokyo to hokkaido is about 1000km.
for tokyo+osaka, u can take their bullet train which takes ard 3hrs. for hokkaido, u need a domestic flight, or an overnight train
for first timer to japan, maybe u can visit tokyo, which is easier to get around as most of the attractions can be reach via trains or subways.
i personally prefer not to have tokyo+osaka in one trip unless u are sure u will not be visiting japan again. this is because it is expensive and time consuming to travel from tokyo to osaka. visit osaka on a another trip with the other parts of kansai, such kyoto, nara and kobe.
Hmm I guess we will be going about 7-9days. Possible? Or is it too tight for Tokyo & Osaka? Which places got more things? My mum say Tokyo only got a lot buildings (she heard) is it true?

Hi Ru n gud morning, if u r to travel on their shinkansen ( bullet train ) direct from Tokyo to Osaka or vice versa only about an hour odd and direct no stopping outside of city. Visiting castle and old building and scenes are in Osaka and shopping for the latest trends is best done in Tokyo and you and your mom will love the shopping experience in the big shopping complex.
Happy travelling and hav a beautiful day too.
How far is the distance between the two locations?If you have tonnes of cash to burn, can.
there was once i took cab from disneyland to narita airport and it costs me SGD 200 plus nearly 300.
How far is the distance between the two locations?
60km, less than 40min travel time by car according to google map
Then the train service normally what time start? Or is it 24 hours? I need to get to narita by 8:30am from shinjuku
You can take the airport limousine bus? Starts very early in the morning and takes around 1hr 15-30mins to reach Narita.
Where to take? Anyway my hotel is subroutine plaza, they got provide but I don't know the time of the bus service

Is there any Japan tourism board in Singapore similar to the Taiwan one where I can get free train passes and etc.?
tokyo to osaka is at least 2.5hrs using the Nozomi shinkansen, and 3hrs Hikari shinkansen.
but yah, tokyo for the latest trends and shopping.
osaka is a big city as well, but u can travel to kyoto for temples, shrines and old building.
for 7-9 days, i will stick to either tokyo or osaka.
for tokyo, u can make some side trips out of the city, for example to visit mount fuji. if u like theme parks, disneyland and disneysea will take up one day each as well.
for osaka, 7-9 days is just right to cover the popular places in kansai, such as osaka, kyoto, nara and kobe
Most attractions for Tokyo can be travelled through subways/trains right? Osaka is more for sightseeing? If 8days just for Tokyo, is it too much or little?
