    May I ask what cities you plan on visiting for your third trip? I'm looking for some ideas outside of the golden route. I know it's not very original but I'm doing Hakone this fall since I haven't been there yet.

    I used Platt Kodama a few times about 10 years ago. At that time, you could only book through tour companies and pick up, do all planning at the tour office. Prices were about the same, I remember it was 10000 yen with one beverage of choices.

    I knew about the Suica card, but little did know how the whole process works. But a local celebrity in my country mentioned on the television that we need to have to purchase all-access transport cards for foreign tourists, so I'm not sure which one is best. But this video is very important for me because whenever my family and I had a chance to visit Japan, these steps really helped. Thank you so much.

    Green car reserved seat is totally worth it. I had zero problems and a smooth ride all 3 of my bullet train trips Tokyo to Hiroshima Hiroshima to Kyoto Osaka to Tokyo Just some small advice, be ready to go at your destination because you will roll up on it very fast!
