Depends on what your standards are. It is probably prohibitively expensive when compared to other Asian countries.

For the 7-day pass for all of Japan, about $230-$250 U.S. It is great if you plan to go places on the bullet trains.

When I go round sightseeing spots in a group, I think that a taxi is cheap.
For example.
I go round noted places of Nara, and it is a course for five hours.
A rate is 28,000 yen.
(station wagon, To nine people)
It is 3,112 yen per one.
It is a search site around a sightseeing spot by a taxi.

You are quite correct Nagashima-san. It is quite cheap travelling by taxi in a group. I forgot about that. Thanks for bringing it up. However, I think this poster is travelling alone or with one other. But, if they are travelling in a group, then taxi would be the easiest way to sightsee and quite inexpensive by comparison.Hiroyuki Nagashima said:
Have you thought of how large Hong Kong is and how large Japan is, hmm? Just Tokyo itself is about twice the size of HK.
