Thank you again, Toshi for your very informative video! This will help all tourists traveling to Japan, including myself. Keep up the great work 😀
Could you talk about if it's better to travel with a suitcase or a backpack? Also, what can we do on NYE in Tokyo (party, bar, temple, fireworks), and what we can do for the first few days of the new year as I believe things are normally closed?
Toshi, I just found your channel. You are doing a great service for tourists. Thank you.
Thank you for the video and the updates Toshi.
Do you still do tour guides in Tokyo?
Your country is famous for games, manga, watches, electronics…
Maybe a guide for hobbyists would be awesome…where to get them for cheap price without getting scammed.
Keep up the good work man!!
Toshi , you are doing an amazing job posting these videos. As an American I wanted to Thank You 🙏 and show Deep Respect to the country of Japan and the people 😀
Hello Toshi
I don’t like crowds but I need some recommendations for countryside trips that provide English friendly services.
Yay.. does it mean less chinese tourist?
Once again, great explanation about the current situation in Japan, Toshi
After about eight years, it's good to visit Japan once again after traveling to other parts of the world and being hindered by the
COVID pandemic.
Once again, thank you for the heads up and I hope that some of the problems are dealt with by the time I'll be there in March next year.
❤️
Loving the videos and really enjoying watching your channel grow!
thank you Toshi. Very helpful
😍👌👌👌
Thanks for the video, leaving to Japan soon and this was helpful!
Thanks for the video. Very informative and well done, congrats!
Hi Toshi, I’ve just discovered your channel. Thanks a lot for all your information. I was in Japan this summer and since I loved it so much I will return again in March/April. (日本が大好きです！) The prospect of overcrowding worries me a bit to be honest…
