【Narita/Haneda Airport】WiFi Router Rental with Easy Pick-up and Return

Everything went smoothly, would recommend.

Reviewed by: Magdalena

Everything went smoothly, device is foolproof, 3 devices connected, lasted for 7-8 hours. Once I had to remove battery beacause it froze, but thanks to manual provided - it wasn't a problem. Would recommend. I've stayed in Japan for 3 weeks, so I feel that the renting price was a bargain. Pickup point at Narita was little hard to find, but after few days in Japan I've learned that it's a part of adventure (Tokyo Station, I'm looking at you :-)))

Airport Transfers between Narita Airport and Central Tokyo < Shared Ride >

I will forever be their client

Reviewed by: Paula

Beyond my expectations, excellent customer service, professional and I am so happy for their service. I made mistake on the reservation and the customer service tracked me down while I was already at the airport boarding has no access to the computer to correct my mistake. She went above and beyond to help.

Upon arrival easily spotted the agent have already waited for me, driver had white gloves, excellent clean neatly uniform and excellent driving skills.

I will forever be asking for their help and services for all my future trips.

Thank you very much you all are amazing

Airport Transfers between Narita Airport and Central Tokyo < Shared Ride >

They did everything they said they would.

Reviewed by: John Reid

Being met off the plane was excellent. There was a clear sign showing my name and we did not have to wait long for the mini-bus to depart. We went to one other hotel before ours.

For going home, we were picked up at 4.45 and there was no-one else in the mini-bus. All went well except that we arrived at the airport about an hour before the check-in opened and all the shops were still shut. It would have been better to have been collected a bit later.

【Narita/Haneda Airport】WiFi Router Rental with Easy Pick-up and Return

Good connection, bad battery

Reviewed by: Mahinda

Pick-up (at Narita T1) was fine, albeit without any instructions on how to use the device -- I think QL Liners are really just a delivery service. The device was also set to Japanese so I had to figure out how to get it to English -- which took a while.

Having used it for 4 days now, the connection has been excellent, as has the WiFi performance. Our only issue is that the battery life isn't great -- 5 hours max, really, so we have to carry a powerbank if we're out all day. I think the device might be a little old.

KINTETSU RAIL PASS (1Day / 2Days /5Days / Plus)

Look carefully at what it covers

Reviewed by: M and M

This pass was not good value for us. We didn’t realise how little of Kyoto it covered (subways are run by a different company) and it not being able to use it in limited express trains, was inconvenient. Would have been cheaper to just use our Icoca cards and pay for each leg.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Good overview but not very interesting

Reviewed by: Trudy

We've enjoyed hop-on hop-off busses in other cities and decided to give it a try in Tokyo. There are two loops so we decided to do the longer loop (90m) and cone back the next morning for the shorter loop (60m). Your pass is good for 24 hours which is very nice. The bus we were on was not a double decker, but it has a see through roof. Unfortunately it is weathered and dull so you can see ok but it is not good for taking photos. You are given headphones and you plug into a soundtrack that narrates the trip. There are several languages to choose from. This is efficient but not very interesting. The narration directed us to look at things that were not always in our direct line of site, but rather tucked behind other buildings. We really just wanted to go for a ride and not hop off. If we'd gotten off we could see more so basically it is just a bus ride, not really a great tour. We opted not to come back the next day for the second loop.

A lot of music few info

Reviewed by: TAR

We have enough experience with hop on hop off buses in many cities around the world and I believe that the info given during Tokyo tour could become more interesting if they talk about Japanese culture, tradition and the county it self instead of just taking when there is interesting city seen place !

The rest of the tour was music back ground

I hope the next time something could change

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

English commentary disappointing

Reviewed by: Glenda

As promised the Hop-On Hop-Off bus made its’ way through the route, allowing us to get a sense of part of Tokyo. Unfortunately, the commentary was very stilted, and lacked history, and details. I usually enjoy getting an overview of a city on a Hop-On Hop-Off bus, but felt that we hit only a few highlights of Tokyo and the information received was less than satisfactory. The Hop-On Hop-Off offered a means to get to some places, but beyond that it was disappointing.

French language

The voice in French was recorded with an automatic and robotic voice like Google translate. It was totally unnatural.

Also, the story suddenly stopped when the bus was crossing a new building in order to explain the new building.

Tokyo Hop On Hop Off Bus Tickets (1day or 2days)

Excellent tour but poor service by staff at Tokyo Skytree Station

Reviewed by: Wendy

The tour itself was an excellent way of seeing some landmarks in Tokyo if you are short of time. We highly recommend online booking before you turn up at one of stations. Although the sign at the station states you can purchase tickets on the bus, at the counter, and sales offices, and no reservations required, when we turned up at the Skytree Station on 15 April, the lady at the ticket booth insisted that the buses are full and there are no seats available. She told us even if we waited for the next buses, there were no guarantee there would be seats. I went outside, booked and paid for 2 same day tickets via Veltra, went back inside the ticket office, gave the lady my booking reference number, got my tickets straight away and got on the next bus. I didn't understand why she was adamant she couldn't sell us tickets and the buses were all full when we first went in. As we were leaving Tokyo the next day, we almost missed out on experiencing the bus tour if I had not tried getting the tickets via Veltra. To avoid same experience, we highly recommend booking via Veltra.

Just So-so...

Reviewed by: Julie W

Staff was very friendly but the overall experience didn't compare with other open air bus trips in other major cities. The monotone English audio was minimal and mostly uninteresting. Lots of room for improvement there. Not many stops and gap time between stops is quite long. I agree with other reviewers- spend your money on a cab.
