Cheers

Seriously Wishbone, do a search with 'Japan Hotel sightseeing' (or something like that) and just scroll through the threads that come up... there must be at least 50 or so of the first 1000 that come up that have good info.

Go to google and type that in - then out of the first 900 000 pages whats good? Dont wanna end up on some ol clapped out bus creeping down side streets of Tokyo !!!

I was asking for any info on people who have traveled there or who can recommend good people to talk to thats all.... Word of mouth is all im after.

Pick up the exellent Lonely Planet Japan guide. There you will find what hotel etc.

All depends on budget.

For car stuff do a search in this section as Rezz says. Many threads on Top Secret, Autobacs and more.......

Yeah thats what I meant. I didn't mean search Google...

Wishbone I'm not being hostile, this exact same subject has been covered each month, every month for going on 3 years now. I'm sure you can find useful info on here with the search feature without having to get Japan members to type out everything again. On the other hand, if you have more specific questions then by all means fire away

I am personally taking some Sunrise Tours in the first part of my trip to get in as much as possible and get used to the place, then I am going out on my own for a while. I have found heaps of info on the internet, I have a few books, (had two Lonely Planet guides till recently.)

Japan would ahve to be one of the best places to visit for information on the internet, outside of maybe the states.. So start searching, translating pages and just researching.. I have been researching flat out for a few months now and I am making my bookings this week..

you could start with the "what to do in tokyo" thread about 14 below this one on the very first page

Heh this site is huge ! only very new - this is my first real post - and sorry Rezz just assumed Google - SAU noob

I will def read through the post re this asap. Got a lonley planet on the way too .... they are the poo apparently.

I was just chucking the question out there in case i got a " wow i just got back and .............."

Thanks for the tips guys.

Cheers
