    The only time I felt unsafe with my wallet at all was when in Roppongi. Only stayed in Roppongi for about 10-15 minutes before getting a subway to Shibuya because the amount of other foreigners trying to hassle you into clubs was very over-bearing.

    Agreed.
    I did not like Roppongi at all. Amusing to see but well dodgy I thought.

    Roppongi is such a kip alright. Amazing the change between day and night there.

    Where is the best place to get the JR pass, I'm going for 21 days so would it be worth getting the 21 day pass I would say I will be in Tokyo for about 10 days at least. Will it work out cheaper than buying day passes for travelling about the city?

    We got our JR rail pass from here.

    The pass only works for JR trains and the Yamanote circle line in Tokyo.
    Tickets for the metro will have to be bought separately. If you are in Tokyo for 10 days then you should only get the JR Pass to cover the other days, one or two weeks.
    Best way to do it is plan Tokyo at start or end of holiday.
