4.0 out of 5 stars Must have book if you're in Tokyo, 11 Dec 2001
By A Customer
While walking round Tokyo, I found this book invaluable. It has maps that are acutally useful compared to other guidebooks I've come across. It also explains a lot of culture and history that us westerners might not be familiar with. Another useful thing is the guide to festivals, so you can quickly find out if there's anything going on on a particular date.
One thing it misses out on is a map of the local trains (the subway won't take you 'everywhere' you need to go) but you can get a free map while there.

1.0 out of 5 stars Cut down version of the Japan guide, 9 Sep 2003
By A Customer
I bought this thinking that it is a more in-depth guide of Tokyo. But it is simply a cut down version of the Tokyo section of Rough guide to Japan. I immediately returned it because I'd already bought the latter. For the price, I would at least expect something more original.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good!, 19 Dec 2003
I was only in Tokyo for a few days and this guide helped a lot. Good advice on where to go and how to get around, useful phrases, the lot. Recommended.
