I’m reading a number of resources for my trip planning to Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka), including the traditional travel guides, blogs, and Instagram, I’m so happy to have found Matthew Baxter’s “Super Cheap Japan”. This book fits what I need for planning my upcoming trip on a budget from what to see and do to what to eat and where to stay. I highly recommend this book for those planning a trip to Japan on a budget, this is the definitely a unique book!
Things are always changing in Japan, so it's super helpful to have updated information to get the most out of your trip. The revised edition of this guidebook provides all that information with details, maps, etc. Thanks to this book, I discovered new places to visit.
I have been looking forward to the updated version of, ‘ Super Cheap Japan’. I have the kindle edition which not only looks great on an iPad, it reads well and is easy to navigate. I love all the links in blue if you want to find out some more about a place. The maps and symbols are so easy to use. Who needs Lonely Planet or the Rough guide when you have Super Cheap Japan! I can’t wait to use this edition when I next visit Japan.
Awesome book with a lot of detail
Really good overall book for places to go and pre-departure purchases for events and museums you might need. Really good tips for saving money.
Great book, excellent advice for saving money.
This is a great book! It gives you all levels of accommodations, breaks down areas of the entire island of japan for food, activities, free things to see and lodging. It also warns you against what to stay away. He lists websites so you can do research and check out prices and IT COMES WITH MAPS! The maps are small and related to only a general area based on whatever section you're reading. Also he spells things in english and has the same thing written in japanese so you can find the characters on the signs themselves.
My husband and I went on our honeymoon to Japan, and had bought this book as a reference to keep with us to the different cities we were traveling too. This was both our first time going. We had gone to Tokyo, Kyoto, Hakone, Nara, and Osaka - all of which were included in this handy little book. And we would pull it out at different times if we were on the train or in our hotel, to remind ourselves what the big tourist attractions were in each city. We had done our own online research prior to leaving as well, so we had an planned itinerary, but it was really helpful to have this book as it gives little summaries on historical importance of each location, what the highlights were, and then other optional places to see as well as how to find cheap eats. Overall we really loved this purchase, and would recommend it to any traveler who’s planning on a trip.
Super beneficial for preparing my 3+ week adventure in Japan and help keeping it cost effective and efficient. Thank you!
