Frequently asked questions
Is Tokyo safe for solo budget travellers?
Tokyo consistently ranks as one of the world's safest cities with extremely low crime rates. Solo travellers, including women, generally feel very comfortable exploring at any hour.
Do I need to speak Japanese to get around?
Most metro stations and tourist spots have English signage, and Google Translate's camera mode handles menus effortlessly. A few basic Japanese phrases are appreciated but absolutely not necessary.
Is a Japan Rail Pass worth it for just Tokyo?
For a city-only trip, a JR Pass is not cost-effective — a Suica IC card loaded with credit covers all metro, bus, and JR lines within Tokyo seamlessly. We help you set this up on arrival.
What is the local currency and can I use cards?
Japan uses the Japanese Yen (JPY); while card acceptance is growing, many smaller restaurants and shrines are still cash-only. We recommend withdrawing yen at 7-Eleven ATMs which accept foreign cards.
Are entrance fees to temples and museums included?
The guided city tour includes entry to selected sites; many iconic spots like Senso-ji and Meiji Shrine are free to enter. Specific museum entries during free time are at your own expense.
