Yokohama tips
Transportation
- Use a Suica or PASMO card: These IC cards work on JR, the Minatomirai Line, subways and buses in Yokohama and Tokyo.
- Ride the Minatomirai Line: This line links Yokohama Station with Minato Mirai, Chinatown and Motomachi, the main sightseeing areas.
- Try the Sea Bass water bus: The Sea Bass boat connects Yokohama Station with Minato Mirai and Yamashita Park for a scenic ride.
Local Hacks
- Go to the Cup Noodles Museum: In Minato Mirai you can design and package your own instant noodle cup to take home.
- Stroll Yamate at sunset: The hilltop Yamate Bluff area has Western-style houses, gardens and the Harbor View Park lookout over the port.
- Visit Red Brick Warehouse events: The Akarenga warehouses host seasonal markets and festivals, such as an Oktoberfest and winter Christmas market.
Saving
- Grab a day pass: The Minatomirai Line offers a one-day pass that pays off if you hop between several sightseeing stops.
- Eat cheap in Chinatown: Street snacks like nikuman steamed buns in Yokohama Chinatown make a filling, budget-friendly lunch.
- Use convenience stores: Konbini like 7-Eleven, Lawson and FamilyMart sell good, cheap meals, snacks and drinks around the clock.
Security
- Know earthquake procedures: Japan has frequent quakes; note the evacuation info in your hotel and follow staff instructions if one hits.
- Beware touts in nightlife areas: Yokohama is very safe, but avoid street touts promising cheap drinks near bar districts, as bills can be inflated.
- Keep your passport handy: Foreign visitors are required to carry their passport, which also lets you shop tax-free.
Cultural
- Try Yokohama ramen: The city is the home of iekei ramen, a rich pork and soy broth; visit the Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum to taste styles.
- Follow train etiquette: Keep phone calls off, queue at the marked spots on platforms and keep your voice low on trains.
- Skip tipping: Tipping is not customary in Japan and can cause confusion; polite thanks is all that is expected.
Weather/Clothing
- Prepare for humid summers: July and August are hot and sticky with possible typhoons; wear breathable clothing and carry a small towel.
- Pack a coat for winter: December to February is cool and dry with chilly sea breezes along the waterfront, so bring a warm jacket.
- Carry an umbrella in early summer: The tsuyu rainy season usually runs from about June to mid July, bringing frequent showers.
