Thank you Ken-San! I’m taking a trip to Japan (again) this January and already changed currencies 🤣 luckily the old bank notes can still be used Lol. Had a small heart attack when you said new notes are being introduced.
Your videos are always so informative! Thank you for all efforts to help people visiting Japan. I’m looking forward to visiting again in June. I want to visit the Odaiba area in Tokyo and also Sendai. I understand that Tohoku needs tourism, so I want to do my part to support that region. Another channel made a video showing the trip on the Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to Sendai and it looks amazing. Hope you have a wonderful New Year and thank you again for your wonderful videos. ☺️
With the new tax free system like others country is will be chaos in airport and you have to bring with you all the products you buy go through customs then carry them with to your plane . With the old system you do your shopping , you can put whatever you buy in your luggage when check in all you need is keep the receipts with your passport when go through custom . Can you made a video to clear that matter . Can visitors allowed to put theirs duty free gift in theirs luggage and check in , only need to claim money back at the airport .
Thank you for the awesome updates! Also looking ahead towards 2025, a new jungle theme park will be constructed here in Okinawa. The theme will be a jungle type experience. Happy new year everyone!
I personally think your voice is very calming, I didn't notice any issues with it :) This video was so exciting! Theres so many new things happening next year that I did not know about. Great video Ken-chan!
Ken-chan, we are looking to visit Japan in January and are looking at a day trip to Gala Yuzawa. I've noticed that there is the JR East Ski Ski Dynamic Rail Pack that is available. Any idea how is best to buy this? Should we try and visit one of the JR travel centres to help us?
Ken-chan, we are visiting Japan next April-May. Can you do a video about restaurants, shops, and hotels in and around Narita. We will most likely layover for a day before our departure home from Narita but wanted to know whether we should spend a night around Tokyo Station or at Narita Airport. Narita would be more convenient if there are enough last minute shopping and food service in the area. Thank you and always looking forwards to your next episode!
Brilliant, Jenchab 🎉. Your voice didn't stop you from making an excellent, helpful video! I have a plan to go to Japan in early 2024. Thank you. Have some restful and restorative time. 🙏
Hi Ken Chan, we are visiting Japan on march 21 ,2024 our hotel is located Koko chome1 in ginza. Can you help us direction how to get there by train please. We have JR pass for 1 week Thanks Ken Chan
I remenber that i only scan my code once (code from visit Japan web ) when i arrive at Narita airport. But to be fair it was during the covid measure, during March 2023.
Hi, can you please do a how-to for Kumamoto, like what is the most efficient port of entry and things to do? Great content as always, you've helped me for my two trips in 2023,, especially on how to save on shinkansens! Happy new year!
Kenchan, thanks for your great videos in 2023! We traveled to Japan first time this year and we planned our tour based on your videos! We enjoyed each of them and they provided us with more information than any other source. Thanks for making us know Japan better! All the best to you in 2024!
THANK YOU for warning me about currency change. VERY HELPFUL! Definitely earned a "Subscribe" and "Like". Half my year is in Tokyo (for the last decade) and I had no idea the currency was changing. (^.^) Whoops! Domo arigatou gozaimasu!
Thanks for the video! Ill be travelling there in November 2024. Can't wait! Can you maybe provide some money saving tips? If i can avoid some tourist traps and see other stuff which not everyone knows about then that would be great!
Thank you for the update Kengo-san 🙏 Shibuya area used to be such a rabbit warren and not very easy to navigate round. The changes look like it will make life much easier 👍
thank you for the updates. i hope to see you in march when i go to tokyo again for the cherry blossoms. this time i will spend more time in shibuya to see the sakura stage and domise outlet.
Happy New Year Kengo-San! We just booked our flight to visit Japan in April and you put this informative video out. Feels like it was meant to be. Can’t wait to see your country and use your tips! 御苦労様。(i hope thats correct )😊
Thank you for your kind words! Yes, I heard you got tickets to Tokyo! I'm so glad I could post this before the year end, in a good timing for you. ☺ Than you too for your hard work too which I love. I wish both of you a Happy New Year. 🎉
Amazing updates! Coming to Tokyo in March and already planning to spend my first day in Odaiba. Now more reasons to do that because your first updates was about that area. I cant save them on google places since they're not launched yet, so i just save Toyosu Market with note 'Tokyo Kenchan new place' lol. Man you have no idea how much your videos have helped me in making my first japan trip itenerary. I just want to say thank you so much! 🙇🏻♂️ By the way, in 11:08 you mentioned about a new pedestrian deck. Is there any specific name for that pedestrian? Maybe it will help since the area looks very complicated. Once again thank you so much Ken. You're the best!
Thank you for such a nice comment. I'm glad you found my videos helpful for your travel planning. haha. I'm also looking forward to the new spots in Toyosu. The pedestrian deck area in Shibuya is called Shibuya Sakura Stage, and connecting with Shibuya Stream building. I wish you the best trip in 2024!! 😄
A big thank you from Australia. I look forward to your videos because they're full of tips and interesting information to help travellers such as me. Regards - 🦘🪃💥
Thank you for the video! I always appreciate the latest updates on Japan from your channel. I use Shinjuku station as a base a lot since I usually take buses out of the city from Shinjuku Busta. My next visit will be in late August 2024, so guess a lot of changes will be under way. Looking forward to all the new developments. And last but not least, happy new year and wishing you and your channel all the best in 2024!
On the road to 20k subscriber Kengo san and more to go! Happy New Year 🎉 thank you for all the videos. Might not visit Japan this winter. Maybe next year 2025! Happy New Year! Arigatuo gosaimasu 🙏 for all the insightful videos.

Arigatō gozaimasu Kengo-san! We’ll be 13 people travelling with the highway bus: departing from Shinjuku and wanting to get off at the Chuo EXPWY Shimoyoshida bus stop. Do you know if we’re allowed to take our suitcases out of the lower baggage compartment at that specific stop?
There are bad guides, great guides, best guides and above them.. there is you.. Incredible amount of information, everything is important for me and it is clearly visible how much energy you invested into your videos.. Thank you!
Thank you Ryuga san! I didn't expect it takes this long to recover. I'll put the Shinkansen one in January! Thank you always for the warm comments Ryuga san! I wish you a happy new year!😄
Hello Ken-Chan! I am going to Disney and staying in Tokyo next week January 16-22. Should I bring a a heavy winter coat? I see people wearing light jackets and sweaters.
I filled out the visit Japan web through the website, but I did not see a QR Code. I'm traveling in March/April. Is it because the date is too far out?
Another informative video with relevant and useful information for travelers to Japan, especially Tokyo. These updates keeps us current! Your efforts are really appreciated!

I remenber that i only scan my code once (code from visit Japan web ) when i arrive at Narita airport. But to be fair it was during the covid measure, during March 2023.
When I come to Japan, I really would like to enjoy a nice civilized bath, the same kind of bath James Bond enjoyed in the movie *you only live twice*
We will also be seeing the exchange rate between USD and JPT normalize a bit. The US Fed is predicting to lower interest rates 3 times in 2024.
Right. I wonder how many travelers are visiting here just because of cheap Yen. I hope there wont be a sudden change.
Will finally be visiting Japan in Nov 2024. Have been watching your videos for months to prepare. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the informative video (:
