Tokyo for solo travellers

We recently did a Mt. Fuji tour for our honeymoon. Our tour guide, Sawaki, was so knowledgeable, funny, and patient with every guest on the trip. He truly has a passion for giving people amazing experiences and he deserves every ounce of praise for making this trip so memorable! Although Mt. Fuji's peak was not visible on the day we chose, he made origami mountains so that people can "get pictures of the peak". 10/10 service from Sawaki!

had a wonderful time with Anna our guide, she was the best. 🥰 even managed to organise a vegan lunch for us. 🌱💚

Great to reserve seats for each segment of travel The only down side was we could only book tickets 6 times with the machine then had to go to the ticket counter. Had to stand in line for over an hour one time. The machines should allow at least bookings before having to go to the counter

So far so good but there was a little hassle in the beginning when I went to the JR station to exchange the email receipt with the Hokkaido rail pass. The staff found that the same name was printed for all 3 tickets even though I have emailed the names of all 3 passengers so she had to call the JR main office to confirm before printing it out which took quite some time and caused a delay in our itinerary.

Perfect for first-timers in Japan! The JR staff helped us understand the system really well. Trains were spotless and comfortable.

I loved that despite the layovers, i was connected to my family throughout to update them about where i was and where i was heading.
