10 Mass Transportation Systems in Tokyo That You Shouldn't Miss
Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

The Tokyo metro is fantastic and the best way to move around the city. Buy your ticket at your hotel so you can get the discounted all day ticket. The stations are named but use the numbers, it makes it super easy to tell which train to get on and which stop to hop off at. I also highly recommend using google maps as it expertly guides you for which train, which direction, and even which car is best based on where you are going after you leave the metro. It does get crowded at times but it’s usually more than manageable/comfortable.

The experience of travelling on the Shinkansen trains is incredible, sleek, smooth ride and very fast, efficient and on time! Added bonus of seeing majestic Mount Fuji en-route made it extra special. Japan Rail Pass enables unlimited usage of the JR train network including most of the Shinkansen "Bullet Trains" this is an absolute essential to buy for anyone travelling to Japan.

Its a good train if you need to get to Hakone. Japan known for its train system, is really one of the best when it comes to connectivity and reducing travel time. suggest getting the Hakone day pass as it covers many other modes of transport within hakone as well.
