Answer
Local supermarkets are relatively inexpensive if you stick to Japanese food such as seasonal vegetables, seafood, soya bean products and rice. If you visit supermarkets shortly before closing time in the evening, you can purchase remaining perishable products at big discounts.
There are plenty of restaurants where you can have a full meal for between 500 and 1000 ¥. Noodles (ramen, soba and udon), domburi (for example, beef domburi), curry rice, bibimba (Korean style domburi), hamburgers and many more types of dishes are available at such inexpensive restaurants. Look for them around and inside large train stations and in business areas.
A meal at a more average restaurant costs roughly between 1,000 and 3,000 ¥, while there is no upper price limit when it comes to high-class restaurants such as ryotei. During lunch hours, many restaurants offer inexpensive teishoku (set menus) at around 1000 ¥. Lunch boxes (bento), which are sold in convenience stores and department stores, train stations and at temporary stands in business areas are also a good deal.
Well, owning a car in Japan is expensive due to the mandatory bi-annual inspections (shaken), mandatory insurance, an automobile tax and the fee for a parking space (in large cities). The cars themselves, however, are relatively inexpensive, with smaller new cars starting at under one million ¥. A liter of gasoline costs around 100 ¥. The use of highways is subject to tolls.
The cost of a taxi ride usually starts at around 700 Â¥ in most parts of the country and increases by about 100 Â¥ for every 500 meters; costs will also increase by about 20% when taking a taxi late at night or very early in the morning. One unusual feature of Japanese taxis is the fact that the doors are operated remotely by the driver so you wonât need to either open or close them by yourself.
Limousine bus convenient for tourists as it stops right in front of most major hotels. It takes about 90min and cost 3000 ¥ to central Tokyo.
Train is the cheapest solution and possibly the quickest, depending on your destination. There are several lines going to Tokyo. You should check which is the nearest station to your destination and work out backward which way is the most convenient for you. For example, if you are going to Shinjuku Station, you can either take the Keisei line from Narita to Nippori, then change to JR Yamanote to Shinjuku; or take to same Keisei line, but change at Hachiman to the Toei Shinjuku line and save 10min and 50 ¥ . p>Check Yahoo Transit or ekitan below to find the quickest, cheapest or most convenient way for you. Beware that the well-publicized Keisei Skyliner cost about twice more than other trains, and is barely 15 min quicker than the Keisei Limited Express.
