A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you pick a route.
Is this a custom-made itinerary?
The finder matches published plans to your conditions. A detailed shiori includes a complete fixed itinerary and booking alternatives for a stated travel party. Short local guides cover only part of a day. Searching does not generate a custom itinerary or make reservations.
What do I pay for?
Searching here is free. New detailed shiori cost ¥300 each on note. Prices for the existing short guides are being revised; check each note article's current price. Admission, transport, food and purchases are extra. Read the free preview before buying.
Can I use a guide with children?
The current routes have not been assessed for children's needs or stroller access. Read the walking and access notes and check directly with venues. Selecting “With kids” highlights this uncertainty; it doesn't certify a family-friendly route.
Is there an all-access membership?
Not yet. A future note membership is planned at ¥700 per month, covering all included shiori and new paid articles while membership is active. We will announce it after it launches. Individual shiori cost ¥300.
What are the pictures?
AI-generated mood boards with fictional recurring travelers. Places, food and objects are imagined illustrations, not visitor photographs or proof of a named shop's stock, menu or interior.
How current is the information?
Each guide shows its research date and official sources. Hours, exhibitions, stock and access can change. Check current notices for your travel date. Timings are planning allowances, not walks measured in person.
Can I buy from outside Japan?
note accepts overseas purchases when you can use a supported payment method. Some overseas-issued cards may be declined. Prices here are Japanese yen; check the payment screen and your provider's terms. note's overseas purchase information ↗
