rojaan19 Posted January 25, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I am afraid we haven't used a car service in Japan. But maybe if you email your hotel they might have one they use. Taxis are very reliable, but you must have the hotel name written in Japanese as most taxi drivers do not speak English. You can see how much a taxi will cost here http://www.taxifarefinder.com/main.php?city=Tokyo-Japan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Silver Spectre Posted January 25, 2016 #4 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) When we did this a couple of years ago there was a standard (cheap or possibly free) ship's transfer to (I think) The Imperial Hotel. It was then very easy to get the concierge in the Imperial to call us a taxi to take us to the Grand Hyatt. We were able to pay the taxi in US$ and the whole thing worked out at less than $30. The Grand Hyatt Tokyo is a really nice hotel, but watch out for those complex loos. If you are flying out of Narita there is an airport limo bus that is the most cost effective way to get there, and it starts at the Grand Hyatt!

rojaan19 Posted January 26, 2016 #5 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The airport bus is the best way to get to Narita Airport if you have luggage. But make sure you allow plenty of time - it can take up to 2 hours. And don't be late they are VERY punctual, oh an no queue jumping :D We have been going to Japan every year for over 30 years now, so if you have any other questions we might be able to help.
