Enjoy stylish Japan in one of the five star Tokyo hotels
There is so much to see in Tokyo, that it is definitely worth speaking to a travel rep before you go. They can help you put together a comprehensive itinerary based on your interests and their knowledge of "must see" places, as well as giving you instructions on how to travel between your destinations. If you are planning to travel around Japan, then I recommend using Japan"s bullet trains, also known as shinkansen. These trains travel at speeds of 300km/h so are an experience themselves. Make sure you"re not late though, as the Japanese pride themselves on the trains running within seconds of their scheduled times. The bullet trains can take you to out of city destinations very quickly, so you can experience more of Japans beautiful country. The speed and reliability of the trains means that you can still return to your base in Tokyo at one of their five star Tokyo hotels.Places I would recommend seeing in Tokyo include the Ryogoku Kokugikan Sumo arena, which is very entertaining. There is also the Tsukiji market which is a wholesale market that runs 24 hours a day. Although you cannot buy products there, you can visit and walk around the market and buy the freshest sashimi, sushi or tempura. These are made from scratch in front of you as you wait, and must be experienced.
Language can be an issue for some travellers visiting the city, but many Japanese people speak some English. If you visit one of the five star Tokyo hotels you can guarantee that the hotel staff will speak extremely good English, and can provide you with lots of insider information to help you on your sightseeing.
