Use Luggage Forwarding Services
Don't lug your suitcase across Japan! Use luggage forwarding services (like Yamato) at hotels or convenience stores to send your bags to your next hotel. It typically takes one day and frees you to travel with a small backpack. This is cash-only, so have yen on hand. -
Get an IC Card for Easy Transit
IC cards (Suica, Pasmo, Icoca) make subway, trains, buses, and even some shops, vending machines, and lockers super convenient. With an iPhone, you can add a card to Apple Wallet, or get a physical card at a station. Top it up as needed. -
Book Shinkansen Seats with Luggage in Advance
If you're carrying bigger luggage and taking the Shinkansen (bullet train), reserve seats with luggage space in advance. It guarantees storage and a smooth journey. For popular routes, booking a day or two ahead is recommended. -
Don't Overpack – Laundry is Easy
Hotels often have coin laundry or self-service machines (sometimes showing machine status on TV!). Bring light luggage and wash as you go, or use convenience store amenities to travel light. -
Cash Is Still Important
While cards work at many restaurants and in malls, some spots (food stalls, luggage forwarding, rural areas) are cash-only. Withdraw at convenience stores (7-11, Lawson, FamilyMart) upon arrival instead of bringing a lot of cash from home. Currency exchange is available at airports and dedicated counters. -
eSIMs and Wi-Fi for Connectivity
Buy an eSIM (like Airalo or Ubigi) before you go, or pick up a SIM card at the airport for reliable internet. Some apps, like Japan Auto Wifi, help connect to free Wi-Fi networks all over Japan. -
Be Flexible and Respectful
Japan is orderly and polite—don't push, be quiet on transit, and observe local etiquette (like placing money on the tray, not handing it directly). Plans may change due to weather, so keep options open and remember that being considerate goes a long way.
