How can I get around Tokyo?

Buy an English Version of the Tokyo Train and Subway Systems

The Tokyo train and subway systems are the most convenient way to get around Tokyo, but they can be very confusing for the first time visitor. Many times, the maps that you receive will be written in Japanese only. Before you go to Tokyo, you should buy an English map of the Tokyo train and subway systems. This will ensure that you can always figure out how to get where you are going. You can also plan ahead of time, as there is usually a large crowd near the ticket gates and you may feel awkward about blocking people as you try to plan your route.
