Hi there,
I am definitely considering coming to Japan this September / October / November (haven't decided exactly when yet) for 2 weeks. I was meant to be travelling with a friend, but she's pulled out as it's a bit too expensive (or so she thinks?). Anyway, I have a few questions and any info would be extremely appreciated!
1) In Tokyo, do the majority of Japanese people speak English too? (ie- for basic requests, finding a hotel, finding the right train / building etc)
2) How much would you estimate 2 weeks in Tokyo would cost, going for low-budget accomodation (but would like somewhere I can shower and wash my clothes, store my travel stuff safely) and going out every night?
3) Is it best to pre-book a hotel or simply turn up when I arrive?
Many thanks! Martin
