Monthly reminder:
Fall 2016 (sometime in week 37-39)
Tokyo, Kanto, Japan
I'm planning another group trip to Japan next year. Maybe you want to join?
We'll be going sometime during late September so we can visit Tokyo Game Show 2016.
Most likely going for close to 2 weeks. 1 week in Tokyo and then the rest in the Kansai (Kyoto/Osaka) region.
You need to co-ordinate with the others that are going and order the flight yourself. I will help out getting us an apartment, hostel and/or hotel for a cheap price. If we get a hostel room we will get a private room for our group, but with shared bathrooms and showers. Hotel or apartment will be a private room for our group with private bathroom and shower.
Estimated budget should be about $1300+flight cost if you want to only join us for the first week in Tokyo and about $2600+flight cost if you want to join in on the whole trip. This depends on what kind of accommodation we'll get.
You will need to confirm if you're going and order the flight by
mid-April 2016.
It will be best if we do a group of max 4 people, so at the
start of April I'll go through the list in order of who's shown interest and confirm if you're going or not. Feel free to show interest even if there's already 4 people on the list in case somebody else have to drop out by then.
Some of the things we could be checking out in Tokyo:
