Review: Fantastic edition - I have to admit that I'm a diehard Fodor's fan and for every single holiday I plan I purchase a Fodor's guide. This one did not disappoint. I love everything about it - the paper, the writing, the insider tips, etc. I'd love it if it had a few more pictures but I still really enjoy it as it is. Some other reviews mentioned that it was light on the Tokyo section but I really don't think so. I ended up buying a Fodor's Tokyo guide as well and it had a few more suggestions for hotels and restaurants but it wasn't remarkably more fleshed out. I'm super happy with this one and I can't wait for my trip in October. Highly recommend!
