Yes sir. I hear the Tokyo people are a lot more on their business. The city is enormous so it would stand to reason that people there aren’t as open or trusting of tourists since they see them probably every day.
I plan on hitting up the Osaka-Kobe-Kyoto tri-city area later this year(More than likely will only hit up Osaka and Kyoto, but I’ll see). I’m pretty hyped.
The only difference I noticed between Osaka/Kyoto areas and Tokyo is people standing on the opposite side of the escalator. People in Tokyo have always been very kind and helpful to me, or at least as helpful as they could be with someone who doesn’t know a lick of Japanese.
