Essential Tips for Your First Visit to Japan: Learn from the Big Mistakes We Made! | Japan 2023

Planning a trip to Japan is not easy! It took us ages to decide on an itinerary and that was difficult enough but we had to decide if we were going to invest in a JR Pass, if we were going to rent a pocket Wi-Fi or buy an SD card, where we were going to stay, where we were going to eat, what we should do, what we shouldn’t do… It’s a lot! And there is so much information out there, it can get really daunting and confusing. So here are all the essential tips you need to know before you go to Japan. We hope our vlogs and this video in particular help you plan a great itinerary for your first trip to Japan and that you don’t make the same mistakes we did!

We’re counting the days until we can go back to Japan. Thanks for watching this series and we hope you enjoyed watching us explore this amazing country 💙
