TIPS
FOR
TRAVELLERS
How
to find where you are going?
Many streets don’t have names, and buildings aren’t
always numbered in order. Use maps and ask your concierge to write
directions in Japanese so you will have an easier time if you have to
ask for help. Buses are complicated unless you know Japanese. Most of
the bus drivers do not know English. Cars are even worse, since there
is little parking and streets are like mazes. Subways are safe,
inexpensive and have maps that are easy to follow with color coding to
find the right connection. You can easily get tickets at vending
machines. Taxis, although not cheap, can be good for short trips.
Currency
Exchange
For the best rates, you
should try to exchange at a
bank, most open between 9am to 5pm. You may also get better rates for
traveler checks rather than cash.
Emergency
Phone Numbers
There is an emergency number of the police
department in Tokyo, where
the calls are attended in
English. The number is 03-3501-0110. Tourists can also keep Tokyo
English Life Line number, which is 03-3968-4099. In case tourists lose
their belongings, then they can call at 03-3814-4151. For tourist
information in Tokyo,

For any flight inquiry, tourists can call at 0476-34-5000 for details
of flights of Narita
Airport. To know about
flights of Haneda, you can dial
03-5757-8111. In case you require help of the police in Tokyo, simply
dial 110. On the other hand, 119 should be dialed in case you need an
ambulance in Tokyo. The same number is used to call fire brigade in
Tokyo. For information about hospitals in Tokyo in case of emergency,
