Lonely Planet Tokyo Travel Guide Lonely Planet Rebecca Milner Simon Richmond 9781786570338 Books Reviews

• Recently went to Tokyo for the first time. I loved this book and the recommendations in it! When my husband and I travel we like to map out our own paths and see places from our own perspective. This book enabled us to do just that!
• Great book with all the essentials. Not the easiest to follow in terms of how the book is laid out, but it has a ton of information. We used it to learn about all of the different neighborhoods in Tokyo, and made sure we hit at least one or two of the sites in most of the neighborhoods. for the food recommendations, we just used Yelp, although the BEST meal we had in Toyko was some totally random really local place that we just stumbled into, and we were the only non-Japanese there. We just pointed at pictures on the menu and hoped for the best, and it was a GREAT meal.
• First travel tip anytime you take the subway just ask someone that works for train company. My Japanese friend from Tokyo had to do just that the system is just really complex. Second If you need to find a subway exit that has a street name look at google maps, they will have the street name/exit in english. Third google maps will get you pretty much to just about anything, the tall buildings may confuse it at some times, but it will get you there.
  
  This book has loads of great info and was invaluable to my trip.
• Previous edition was great and now this has a lot of updated locations and things to do.
• format warning. The ebook is poorly formatted for Readers. Missing spaces, random replacement characters, poor layout. The information is intact, but the formatting makes reading this ebook unpleasant. For example, Headings with numerals are missing spaces "5Eating" instead of "5 Eating." There are characters that seem randomly included or are a replacement due to missing characters in the font. For example in front of subway lines or subheadins such as "dJR Yamanote" bMarunouchi" and "oCraft Beer". Overall an unpleasant experience.
• I have used this and and previos versions several times. They give great advice and for Japan they are very accurate. If you are an independant traveler on a budget, someone who doesn’t do tours and stays in expensive hotels, these are great. I have been using LP since the 90’s and they have saved me hundred of dollars and headaches.
• Very good guide i used for my first trip to Japan. I used it mostly to plan the trip and read about Tokyo. Thanks to the book i could plan alone my trip with my 2 boys. When in Tokyo i also used tripadvisor for reviews .
• This book was very helpful with lots of useful tips and suggestions that we followed up. The organization of the book was problematic however when walking around and using it on the fly The detailed neighbourhood maps in the back are separated from the description within the book of each area so you had to constantly flip back and forth. They really should put them together. Couldn't have done the trip without it though!
