Super Deep Japan Guides 01-05 - Complete Field Edition

Includes Guides 01-05 only; Volumes 06 and 07 are sold separately.

What does a Narita Express ticket actually include? Can your hotel receive a suitcase while you spend a night in Hakone? What happens to a tax-free refund if one item is missing?

This guide answers thirty situations like these through short travel stories followed by a practical page with the price, rule and next step. It is for English-speaking visitors who want to understand everyday travel in Japan, not another list of sightseeing spots.

INSIDE THE 113-PAGE EDITION

Arrival: Visit Japan Web, an evening Narita-to-Shinjuku journey, N’EX fares, TOURIST PASMO and tap-to-ride limits.

Konbini: medicine categories, food labels, eat-in tax, ATM conversion, printing and parcel drop-off.

Luggage: Tokyo-to-Kyoto delivery, hotel acceptance, Shinkansen baggage reservations and Multi-Ecube locker fees.

Stations: named gates, street exits, elevators, station levels, last trains and lost property.

Tax-free: the 1 November 2026 changeover, JPY 5,000 threshold, 90-day deadline, Customs before bag drop and merchant-side refunds.

MADE TO USE DURING THE TRIP

A clickable two-page index opens all thirty field answers. Topic links and PDF bookmarks help you move between sections. Every answer page includes Japanese you can show staff and links to supporting evidence. Google Maps search links cover Narita Terminal 1, Shinjuku, Tokyo Station and Kyoto Station.

The complete edition brings the five topic guides together and adds a separate 13-page reference: six short cases, a decision map, eight show-to-staff cards, an evidence ledger and a save card. It includes the additional reference and navigation; it is not a discount on buying the five individual issues.
