Top 7 JAPAN Budget Travel Mistakes • Filipino • The Poor Traveler

Pero for me talaga, hindi matatawaran ang train system :O, i love japan more pero ibang klase ang train system sa korea haha

hi @thepoortraveler or anyone here in the comment section, Do I need to transfer my multiple entry Japan visa to my new PH passport? It is currently, pasted on my old passport. We missed checking this part and our flight will be on Friday!

Sir kng sa nagoya po ang exit at entry po at gustong puntahan ang osaka ano po ang pass na gamitin po.

good video but I have a big issue with the passport - tax point.

you should inform the viewer that as a tourist you have to have your passport on you at all times. it is literally the requirement of the government when they let you in.
and the tax free shopping is not only for when you spend more than 5000 yen, the requirement is for you to take the item home. so its ment for gifts and consumable that are being taken home, therefore the VAT can be waived. you can not go and buy, for example food or whiskey for a week and then consume that.

Hi. Are you saying you only bring passports if you plan to do shopping? I have read na in Japan, it is mandatory to bring passport all the time. Which is correct? Thanks

Kuya try Tohoku region next time. Guide kita😅

Link on the Japan passes pleeease

Teka, blogger ka diba? Vlogger ka din pala! In fairness, helpful blogs mo, dun ako minsan kumukuha ng tips, very detailed! Thanks! Ang dami daming recommendations pero sa mga katulad ko na never been to Japan, all of the info, vlogs etc are overwhelming and hard to put my finger on. Specially when it comes to the transpo, it's so confusing. I don't know, maybe it's just me. 🤷‍♀🤷‍♀

Sana po makagawa kayo ng blog about sa mga Japan Pass po.

What a comprehensive guide!

Going to USJ and eating Kobe beef: budget out the window!

I've been to Tokyo and Osaka 26 times and good thing researches helped me a lot even in my first trip. Been around Tokyo to Yokohama, Nikko, Kawaguchiko, Kamakura, SHizuoka, Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto, Nara, etc. Never used Shinkansen or JR Pass because expensive. Didn't use Passes, just buy train tickets as to destination I like because I wouldn't maximized their uses.

hi sir gud day! nka sched po ako sa narita this end of sept. nakapag search na ako ng mga tourist spot sa narita na free. Balak ko po sana pumunta sa Shibuya or Tokyo, pede po ba bus or train na lang, balikan din po sa Hotel ko sa narita? Salamat

Bali is nice. Everybody in Indonesia can be a millionaire. Because their currency exchange rate is for $100 = 1,480,000 Rupiah. Hehehe.

Salamat sa mga travel tips. This is the best I have seen out there by far. Keep it up 👍

EXCELLENT video! — from ur new subscriber. Going to Japan by January. Arriving at Narita airport, will only go around Tokyo, Kyoto & Osaka. Never been to Japan before. Reviewing the different transport passes yet kind of confusing. What pass can you recommend me…. thanks much!💕

LOVE JAPAN, such a nice exploring video, really great content, just subscribed, thank you

What comes out to your mouth surely will happen to you. Very negative always lumalabas sa mga words make it positive . Spread positivity❤

At least how much do we have to save to have a descent 2 weeks vacation in Japan?

Nice video!! 💙
Would like to visit Japan with my family pero parang hindi ko kaya mag DIY. 😂 Parang nakaka overwhelm yung transpo services nila.😅

Great video. Thank you very much for the information. I want to experience Onsen in Mt. Fuji area. Would you be able to give us some info on this?

Japan rin ang aking most visited country.

Another reason para laging dalhin ang passport ay baka ma-random check ng police. Naniniguro lang sila na turista ka at hindi ka nago-over stay.

The poor traveler has been to Japan multiple times. It'd be nice if we could all be poor travelers then. That way we could all afford it. XD

Manifesting. Thank you The Poor Traveler! Kayo talaga inspiration namin para magtravel!

Super helpful! First time namin mag Japan this year and we're super excited!

How's the weather in Japan during September?

After traveling many countries I finally realised those acts that I am doing are just propaganda to the country I’d visited so true that my own country will be far way to go promoting 😊

Didn’t know grab has travel insurance! Thanks for sharing 😊

Mga how much po need na budget for few days in japan?

Absolute biggest mistake by tourists on a budget is overpaying for hotels. Excellent all around

Expensive yung insurance sa Grab. Affordable is Standard Insurance.

Hi guys! Anong pass kaya mas okey if mag explore lng around osaka and kyoto. Thank you and more power.

Another mode of transportation sa mga long distances is actually plane. You might think na mahal but Japan also has budget airlines like PeachAir and VanillaAir. Depende kung kelan ang biyahe mo, it can be half of the price of shinkansen. I remember flying from Narita to Osaka for less than 5000 YEN. That's almost 1/3 the price of Shinkansen and half of travelling by bus. Less than 2hrs lang ang byahe minus the getting to and from the airport.

I hate your channel NAME very NEGA UBER.... but you have great content!😊

Thank you for sharing.
Can you recommend me best place to visit for a first timer in japan please.

hi, ask ko lang kung sa USJ ay tax free din pag nag shopping dun?

Sir the Grab insurance you were saying earlier how much is the cost per person in Philippine peso?

Hi po! I would really appreciate if you can give me an advice regarding train passes and how I can save money. Me and my family will be in Japan for 10 days, 5 days in Tokyo, 2 days in Kyoto, 2 days in Osaka and 1 day in Nara and planning to return to Phil via Kansai. I was thinking to just buy one way Shinkansen train from Tokyo to Osaka and just regional pass in Osaka (but which one is the best). Also, if I'm only buying one way Shinkansen train from Tokyo you can only buy it when you're in Japan or can you buy in advance. Thanks very much and hoping for your reply.

Hi, is this video sponsored by GRAB?

See you on december 17 tokyo

Yung "maligalig na kaibigan" sino ba walang kaibigan na ganun, for sure minsan sa buhay natin nka pag travel na tayo ng may kasamang maligalig na kaibigan, sila yung gustomong iwan na lang sya sa train station kasama ng mga gamit mo sa locker 😂😂

i was in Phnom Penh-Cambodia in February when cherry blossom season happened there. It was quite beautiful and frankly i didn't plan it. i am sure its much more beautiful in Japan, but i had my share of cherry blossom. i was really happy. lets hope i can do Japan in the future.

Ginsure ng gcash meron and affordable din

Omg Ang cool nung Travel Insurance sa Grab! Just tried it! Thank you!

Actually, we are going to Tokyo Japan this coming September. I just want to ask about your travel insurance. If something happened do you have to contact the insurance company right away? Every time I travel I never get insurance. But now because of covid still hanging around I have to get insurance. The last time I traveled was January 2020. Always stay safe and stay healthy. Godbless.

Not sure if this is true for everyone pero di na ako hiningan ng receipts sa airport for my tax free purchases. I think kapag mga luxury items lang ganon, not sure tho. Pinascan lang yung passport ko and that was it.

I'd recommend making an English only version of this video. I believe you would be losing a lot of views on this video due the language barrier.
I would rather Google a list of travel mistakes on the internet than read your subtitles for 14 minutes. I would have acquired all the information I needed within a minute.
If you are targeting a specific market (Filipino or International), you should cater your videos specifically to them with English or Filipino titles to suit.
I have watched many of your other videos. Unfortunately, I gave up on this one within the first minute.
