14. Use a luggage delivery service

My least favorite thing to do when traveling is carry a suitcase from one place to another. Luckily in Japan, they have a luggage delivery service. This service is very useful if you use a lot of local transportation and stop at several stops.  it's quite affordable and can get your luggage from Tokyo to Osaka in just a day or two! Ask your hotel receptionist if they can help arrange pick-up directly from the hotel. You can also send your luggage to and from the airport if there is a counter available!

However, before shopping like crazy for snacks, don't forget to pay attention to the expiration date. Most snacks have a relatively short shelf life because they are made daily and contain little or no preservatives. Our advice, buy snacks at the end of your trip. Large airports usually also have souvenir stocks that you wouldn't want to miss. Even before visiting Japan, you must have heard how amazing konbini, aka convenience stores, are in Japan. That's true. Starting from ready-to-eat food such as onigiri to extraordinary desserts, hot bottled milk tea, you can enjoy everything at the konbini. Coffee lovers who feel 'difficult' due to the lack of caffeine because Japan is synonymous with tea, can also enjoy coffee or lattes made by konbini. Each department store outlet also has its own special features. Get fried chicken at Lawson and FamilyMa...
