Dear visitor, if you know the answer to this question, please post it. Thank you! 15 days too many for a stay in Tokyo? 2009/10/11 Tokyo 23-ku i'm staying in Tokyo for 15 days, do you think they're too many? i am a budget traveller and i can't afford a shinkansen to Osaka or Kyoto so.. i by laura89 (guest)   ... 2009/10/11 It depends on the person. If you have the time and interest, I think it is not too long. There is enough to do in and around Tokyo to keep you busy for more than a month: http://www.japan-guide.com/list/e1103.html by Uji rate this post as useful .. 2009/10/11 There are plenty of places to visit, apart from the usual Shinjuku/Harajuku/Shibuya/Ginza there is also Kawagoe, Jimbouchou, Ikebukuro and the like. You wont be bored at all. by Shiroi Koibito rate this post as useful . 2009/10/11 Living in tokyo for a long while, i don't thik I've seen everything yet. So 15 days...heh Any case you have lots of nearby places to Tokyo that are affordable to travel, check Japan-guide pages, kamakura, yokohama, if you have a little extra, nikko and hakone are good day trips as well. by Expresstrain (guest) rate this post as useful buses 2009/10/12 Shinkansen isn't the only option to Kyoto etc- have you looked into overnight buses? by Sira (guest) rate this post as useful What about.... 2009/10/12 What about cutting down your trip? You could spend 2 days in Hiroshima, 2 days in Kyoto and 3 days in Tokyo, and the money you save on the shorter trip means you can get a JR 7 day pass! by Paul (guest) rate this post as useful I'm also going for 2 weeks 2009/10/12 I'll be in Tokyo for 14 days in November.. I'm also a budget traveller, so no worries. :) I think you'll be fine. by jezzro rate this post as useful
