Question Advice on trip to Japan

[Tevinhead]

My friend and I are planning a trip to Japan. Could anyone recommend any places to visit? Or give us some advice... Plus what's the cheapest way to get there (from England). And how much would we be looking at? Thanks.

Yokohama, I love this city.. Tokyo is ok, but can be annoying very quickly. I will tell you about Kyoto /Osaka, maybe Odaiba? As my trip continues...

You HAVE to go to Kyoto, Tokyo and Fukuoka. I quite Like Osaka too but y favourite city by Far is Nagasaki.
Best way from the UK is to try and get a flight from the net with Korean Airlines. I've never paid more than USD 750 for my flights

If you want to see the real Japan, you may want to get away from the big cities / obvious tourist destinations. As an alternative to Kyoto, I would strongly recommend Kanazawa in Ishikawa. If you want to see real inaka (countryside) then try the Japan sea coast of Fukui. Of course Fuji is a must. The Izu penninsula near to Fuji is a good fairly out-of-the-way place, too.

Hey m8, well it's pretty darn expensive for us Brits. Flights over to Japan in the cheapest month are around USD 470. However to cut down on costs by staying in a youth hostel.
