Tips for travelling in Japan

• Before you fly to Japan, learn a few phrases in Japanese. While many people in major cities and tourist areas have some grasp of English, this may not be the case further off the beaten track – and it’s always a good idea to be polite and arm yourself with a few common expressions such as please and thank you.
• Packing light is always a good idea – but it’s particularly smart when you book flights to Japan. The local architecture means hotel rooms can be small in built-up cities, with little space for oversize cases. Plus, with the incredible shopping on offer in cities like Tokyo, you’re sure to pick up a few souvenirs to take home with you.
• Prepare for the morning rush in major cities such as Tokyo, where commuters pack onto busy trains. You may wish to take it easy over breakfast and avoid travelling by public transport between 7:30 am and 9 am.
