City Transport
The whole of Tokyo's public transport system is efficient, clean and safe, but as a visitor you'll probably find the trains and subways the best way of getting around; the simple colour-coding on trains and maps, as well as clear signposts (many in English) and directional arrows, make this by far the most gaijin -friendly form of transport. And, while during rush hour (7.30-9am & 5.30-7.30pm) you may find yourself crushed between someone's armpit and another person's back, only rarely do the infamous white-gloved platform attendants shove commuters into carriages. Lack of any signs in English makes the bus system a lot more challenging. However, once you've got a feel for the city, buses can be a good way of cutting across the few areas of Tokyo not served by a subway or train line and, as long as you have a map, fellow passengers should be able to help you get to where you want to be. For short, cross-town journeys, taxis are handy and, if shared by a group of people, not that expensive. Once you've chosen the area you wish to explore, walking is the best way to get yourself from one sight to another; you're almost guaranteed to see something interesting on the way. Cycling , if you stick to the quietback streets, can also be a good way of zipping around . Given the excellent public transport facilities, the often appalling road traffic, the high cost of parking (if you're lucky enough to find a space) and Tokyo's confusing street layout, you'd need a very good reason to want to rent a car to get around the city .
