Tip #4 Pocket Wifi in Japan is my favorite access to ubiquitous connectivity that keeps Google Maps, Translate and other powerful travel digital tools at my fingertips.

Say you find your Shinjuku hotel and are ready for a tasty meal. With Pocket Wifi, open Google Maps on your mobile phone and say: "Best restaurants near me.” That and a little sense of adventure will take you to excellent culinary experiences often hidden and off the beaten path. 



Order online and decide where you prefer to pick up your Pocket Wifi, either waiting for you at Narita, Haneda or Osaka International Airports or at the front desk of your hotel. I prefer airport delivery to have immediate navigation to way find to my hotel. Click here for Narita Terminal 2 pick up location [hours: 8:30-20:00]-->   https://www.japan-rail-pass.com/common-questions/pocket-wifi-pick-up    

If you arrive Narita after 8 pm 
Pickup Pocket Wifi at QL Liner desk, 1st floor.

See link above for other hour details.


Which way to the trains?  Once you've picked up your Pocket Wifi, ask for directions to the train level. [If memory servers, trains are on the first floor of Terminal 2].

Wherever we travelled in Japan, we had amazing results typing in "best restaurants near me"on Google Maps.
Order Pocket Wifi online before you go.

Tip #5. Portable Charger.
We used this immeasurably handy wifi tool so much that we ran our smartphone batteries to the ground.  So on our next trip we carried a Portable Charger.  This one had enough power for two phones and the Pocket Wifi for an entire day.
