Hi everyone!
My partner and I are travelling to Japan in November for three weeks.
We’ve visited before back in 2016 and visited Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima and did a day trip to Nara and Kobe.
This time we are wanting to do a different route and so far have this in mind (alongside some rough activities we’ve found so far) however we still have four nights not planned and unsure where to go for them.

Team labs, exploring the city, go karts
Potential day trip/s:
