One of my good friends lives in Japan...

 

u going to the tokyo auto salon while ur there? i believe its the 15th-17th.

 

called Japan budget express today since I didnt have time to stop by, I was qouted a price of 819.00 round trip, no hotel, for depature in march.
Better than what I expected and cheaper than my last cruise.

 

so i just checked continental.com and thats the price they list with tax. no savings to go with japan budget express but they can get u a rail pass.

 

I found this hotel which is ok by its reviews. only good thing is that the hotel is dead center of everything. take a look
http://www.sakura-hotel-ikebukuro.co...l_location.php
about 70.00 a night which averages to about 1850.00, more or less, with round trip tickets included. $$$1800.00-2200.00 seems to be the norm on pricing. I need to search and see if I can find any more package deals.

 

hey there mike! does your friend have any recommendations as far as places to see while there, or any info for setting up a package?
I still need to check out your ride in person!

 

You definitely need to go to a Super GT race while you are there. For night time entertainment pay a visit to Kabukicho

 

AMuse, nissan, and top secret facilities are on the list! Shinjuku seems to be a cool. kinda like vegas of tokyo.

 

that hotel is not in the middle of everything, its kinda on the northwest side of tokyo, i think u can do better. Hotel Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku is only $100 a night and its in shinjuku. check out hotels.com and tripadvisor.com, i use tripadvisor and start at the the top of the list and work my way down till i find an affordable hotel that gets good reviews. word of caution, the rooms are small, dont expect something large and comfortable, but are u really gonna be spending any time in the room other than to sleep anyways?

 

^^^AH! thank you SIR! I will get on that website as soon as im done with my patients. Yeah I noticed how small the rooms are. No biggie we are going to be out and about anyway Snapping pictures of anything and everything and just shop the entire day.

 

hey Chrispy,
Thanks for the website tripadvisor.com very useful. Has alot of good values in it and reviews so anyone can check in and read about other peoples experiance.
Been thinking about possibly going in early march for about two weeks. Talked it over with some friends, they arent sure they can make it. Anybody else interested in coming along?

 

Not sure, but ill def give him a shout and ask for ya!

 

^^^thanks man

Found this link on how to use the railway in japan. Pretty straight forward and simple. No different than the ones in mexico.
Just make sure you check the correct time and name of the location desired.
