If going from Osaka or Kyoto to Tokyo send luggage the day before with luggage service, you check out as it takes about 1.5-2days to reach your Tokyo hotel when I used it in November '23. I over packed for sure for my first ever trip last year, now I know I'm bringing 3 sets of clothes only and making sure each hotel I stay has washer/dryer. One I stayed at said it had laundry service which I assumed meant the machines but it wasn't and they were asking 400yen per shirt and 600 yen per pants and more. I found a coin laundry nearby and did it myself for the price one pair of pants would have cost. Coin lockers are amazing when doing day trips, stick heavy things or your bag in them and have a lighter/smaller bag to walk around with then as you acquire items just return to the locker and store again unless you like heavy bag on your back. I learned so much watching yours and others but I didn't listen to some and now I know after visiting, cannot wait to my next trip this year.

As someone who will vacation there for 2 weeks, I'm only bringing 2 bags; 1 carry on and 1 backpack. Only 1 week's worth of clothes cuz I'll be taking advantage of the hotel's laundry. I'll have to disagree with the camera for not to bring cuz most smartphone cameras are terrible unless you got an iphone or google pixel. A pocket size camera is good like the sony RX100's or dji osmos pocket series. One thing that's not on list essentials list that absolutely should be is a portable battery bank. The constant use of the phone for navigation, translation, video/pictures, and web surfing will drain the battery. I also recommend bringing vitamins/supplements especially that strengthens your immune system. It would royally suck if you end up being sick during your stay.
@NinjaMonkeyguy

It's why i said if you have a good modern phone.. As for the battery pack and some of the other things I 100% agree and are included in my ultimate packing guide : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OJg_N4GCzM4.html

Great stuff, last time I went for 10 days , I carried 7 kg cabin baggage only, I was one of the first out of airport , all my souvenirs were tiny under 5cm each , so easy to find , key chains, postcards, fridge magnets, then my wardrobe had tops and bottoms that all colour matched with each other which allowed me to have a different look each day without the weight ,bring shoes that are very light , stuff sneakers with stuff to save space , I bring my deodorant too , only use roll on anyway

Great information thanks Nathan. I just came back 2 days ago from Japan. If you’re traveling from Tokyo up north to tohoku like to Sendai or Aomori etc. Take the Hayabusa it has more space above the seats for luggage. The Komachi that is connected to the Hayabusa is smaller and less overhead space for luggage. The komachi then goes to Akita it separates at Morioka station.

@shawnbell6392

Question: it seems I will most probably use the Keikyu line to reach my first hotel in Tokyo (from Haneda terminal 3 to Tokyo), are there some rules about luggage? I will not have enough time to forward my luggage at the arrival, so it is mandatory to take it with me)
@shawnbell6392
@shawnbell6392 Месяц назад
I used the same train. I only had a small carry on sized backpack that I just held in my lap while seated. If you have a rolling case I would just try to keep it between your legs when you sit or stand. It can take 30 min to about an hour on the train to reach where you are going or the station you will need to transfer in. Google maps is your friend about the trains as when you need to change lines at a station it will tell you the platform and other info.
@NinjaMonkeyguy

as it's considered an 'airport' train there will also be many using it with luggage so no worries

The luggage size rules only apply to Shinkansen routes operated by JR Central, JR West and JR Kyushu, and the routes are the Tokaido Shinkansen, Sanyo Shinkansen and Kyushu Shinkansen. Shinkansen going north from Tokyo such as Tohoku and Hokuriku Shinkansen operated by JR East does not require luggage reservation as there are proper luggage racks in each car. But I guess most visitors especially first timers to Japan probably will only ride the Tokaido Shinkansen aka the golden route: Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka.

Even for me at a slender build and just under six feet it was hard to find sizes. (T shirts were an exception, those were easy) For men I am tempted to say forget buying shoes unless you have time to really hunt for your size but don't assume you will find it. I bought a leather jacket but it was a XLL size there and I wear medium in the US.

@@sasikredi I wouldnt worry about service staff, it might confuse them (since they are not used to it) and if giving a gift postcards from home are prob better than a pokemon card because they might not be into pokemon

@sasikredi it’s up to you, I just think it might confuse the service stuff a little bit. However, if you do strike up a conversation with someone whilst you’re there maybe at a bar or on a train then absolutely do it

hmmm ... yet again, it is so silly,... why do you have 日の丸 ?! this is really strange! (^_^) ... anyway, regardless of season, always I carry てぬぐい or, at the very least, handkerchief but, for Winter, even though it makes me look old, haramaki ... for laundry, just go to the local laundromat ... for scent, I think yuzu scent is always welcome ... for coin purse, Kitamura is high quality and will last past when you die ...

Take a few items of clothing in a backpack, just hand luggage. Most hotels have washing facilities. Then you can travel easily. Buy a cheap suitcase in Don Quijote if you want to buy stuff to bring back in your last few days. Never understood people traveling with huge suitcases.

i travel with a big suitcase only because of content creation or else I'd do the same as you! (aklthough I'd never travel with a back pack and would prefer a smaller roll suitcase.. I'd hate having to open the bag to find the things at the bottom)

@@NinjaMonkeyguy Yeah, that makes sense. This was more just a tip for those reading the comments. If your backpack has plenty of pockets, you can organise it so you're never having to dig to the bottom!;) Totally worth the convenience and ease of travel imo.

@@star-tingwithmyintuition3463 We bought ours in the DQ in Shinjuku, they've got a whole floor of suitcases. We bought ours for around 5000¥. And it's a big one, just a shitty material. You can find the cheap ones at the back of the room. Really worth doing as you can travel Japan without dragging it around.
