Re: Empire of the sun tour

Hi Joanne,

I haven't been on the tour (more's the pity) but I have been to Tokyo and stayed in the departure hotel that we use. All I would say is follow the instructions in the Japan country dossier and you'll find the hotel without any problems. It's just a matter of taking the train from the airport to Ueno station and then it's just 2 stops down the line to Tawaramachi station, from where the hotel is less than 2 minutes away on foot. From Tawaramachi you can get to practically anywhere using the excellent subway system, which annonces each stop in English too!

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Brendan

Re: Empire of the sun tour

Hi, I went on this tour in July 2005. It was brilliant - you will have a great time. My tour group were really good.

I would say that Takayama and Myajima were the highlights for me. Although climbing Fuji was some acheivement !!

Enjoy !
