Tourist Guide

Tokyo is home to a variety of excellent restaurants. A search on the internet will guide you to your preferences. Not all restaurants will have menus in English so it may be worth inquiring before being seated.

The recommended way of getting Japanese yen is at Narita or Haneda Airport. You can do it in two ways: either at an ATM with the PLUS or CIRRUS signs or through the bank window and change your home currency into yen.
