Plan Your Next Trip to Japan With This Audiobook
I love visiting Japan, but this audio guide is extremely helpful for anyone who has never been there and doesn't know where to go or how to get around. The author includes several useful tips for planning your trip, understanding the Japanese culture, and how to budget for your trip. I liked the guidance on what seasons to travel to Japan so you can see beautiful landscapes and cultural festivals and events. Pro tip: Avoid going during Golden Week since the majority of the country takes a week-long vacation!
The railway system is one of the best ways to get around the country, so the fact that a chapter was dedicated to that is a tremendous help. It is by far the most efficient way to travel and easier on your pockets. Also, an invaluable guide is about social norms and etiquette, which the Japanese culture takes very seriously. I highly recommend having a listen to this before you plan your next or first trip to Japan!
