    Thank you for asking questions about the weather. I think you will have a great trip no matter which seasons you visit. Any seasons have a charm. July and August is the best 2 months for me with fire works festivals.

I _can_ tell you that a flight with Finnair from Stockholm via Helsinki to Tokyo and back, flying out on 29 October and home 18 November, cost me 15 600 SEK. I have been told that May, apart from Golden Week, is pleasant for us scandinavians, as are October and November. June and July are rainy, and August - September are typhoon season in addition to still being hot and humid in general. I'd very much like to experience the cherry blossoms or Christmas lights, though.

Something get difficult during GW is getting seat on train, and airplane tickets get expensive, so I recommend you to make reservations in advance. You might want to book rental car soon if you are going to do driving trip. Once you get there, Hokkaido (except Sapporo) is probably not that busy and good place to drive around. The load to Wakkanai is nice. I'm going to do similar trip in the end of May. :)

    Thank you for watching. Sorry if I made you worried. The only concern is the crowd of Shinkansen or airplanes, but otherwise, it's actually a very interesting period to stay that you can feel a lot of Japanese culture, on new years eve that people rush to do shopping, January 1st that people line up for shrine to pray, and people rush to the stores on 2nd or 3rd to get lucky bags of new years. :) The weather is usually sunny in Tokyo, and north country side will be covered by deep snow, so perfect for hot-springs if you are interested. One tip I can mention from my experience is, maybe it helps to book the reserved seats of trains and hotels early, especially between Dec.30 to Jan.3. The JR tickets become on sale a month ago of the day you take - eg. If you take Dec.30 to Kyoto, it becomes on sale on Nov.30 10am Japan Time. It's not a big matter if you stay in the city during that period though. So as long as you are prepared, it's a great season to visit. :) Thank you again.

The only drawback was that many shops/restaurants are closed around New Years and we found Google Maps was often inaccurate on open days/times so we had a couple of missteps.

My question is: How can I book the best tickets/accommodations for those countries instead of paying thousands of pounds, or booking seperate flights?

  • @tokyokenchan

    Hello. There are tons of LCCs and flights between many Japanese cities and Korea, so it might be easier to find flights between the two countries and fly back to either Japan or Korea. That way you can find the most reasonable flights between your country to either Seoul or Tokyo/Osaka etc. For accommodations, it relly depens on your favor, so you might want to put date and location on Google and find the cheapest sites. Usually weather is nicer in October and November as typhoon might come in September to Japan. But it changes every year.
