It is very convenient to book tickets using Klook. You don't have to compete with everyone on the Jr website. This time I was arranged to sit in car 3, which is close to car 2 for selling things. If you want to take pictures, you can go to car 1 to take pictures of the scenery.

The shop is easy to find, and you get to choose your preferred kimono design. I recommend arriving early, as the selection becomes limited later in the day and you might not get your preferred color. The staff are helpful—they assist with dressing and even do your hair. Overall, a wonderful and memorable experience in Tokyo!

At first, I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't think that I could really book a Japanese restaurant for free with Klook. Since this restaurant only accepts phone reservations and I don't understand Japanese, I relied on Klook to help me book a seat. When we arrived at the restaurant, the owner had already prepared our dinner.

What you buy on Klook is the electronic version of the Hakone Freepass. You don't need to exchange for a physical ticket. You can use it by showing the electronic ticket display to the staff. It is convenient and fast, and it is a great choice.

All about Japanese history- very English friendly and easy to get around. Nice cafe in the gardens although it is very expensive…950 yen for a Matcha. With Klook booking you can walk straight in- no need to queue for a ticket- the QR is the ticket.

After purchasing online, you can directly scan the QR code at the machine at the Japanese station to redeem it. It is very convenient. You can take the subway directly to eat delicious food and go shopping. It is very useful. Next time I come to Japan, I will continue to buy and use it.

Online purchases can be used immediately, which is convenient and fast, and the price will drop with the exchange rate, which is very good.
