Tips to use buses 
When you get on the bus, take a small ticket from a small machine on the right of the bus door at the center. It shows where you got on the bus and is necessary to know your fee when you get off. There is English announcement which tells the next bus stop name. When you hear the name of the bus stop you want to get off, push one of the notify buttons to show the driver you will get off at next stop. The fee is shown on the electric price panel above the driver. The price with the number on your ticket is your fee. Put the exact amount and the small ticket into the small box near the driver. There is money changing machine in the bus. It can not deal with more than 1000yen bill. 
 
Tips to use taxis 
It is useful to print out the following Japanese sign and show to the taxi driver pointing where you want to go. When paying the fee, do so in the car. If you get out of the car intending to pay from the window, the driver will be upset. No tipping is needed in Japan overall.
