Hi everyone! I’ve put together a rough plan for my Japan trip with my partner and would love your advice on what to do/see in each place, how the pacing looks, and any tips you might have.
Oct 18 – Travel + Arrive in Tokyo
Oct 19 – Tokyo (staying in Ueno)
Oct 20 – Tokyo
Oct 21 – Travel to Kyoto
Oct 22 – Kyoto/Osaka/Nara
Oct 23 – Kyoto/Osaka/Nara
Oct 24 – Kyoto/Osaka/Nara
Oct 25 – Kyoto/Osaka/Nara
Oct 26 – Kyoto/Osaka/Nara
Oct 27 – Travel to Lake Yamanaka
Oct 28 – Fuji (Lake Yamanaka) + nature
Oct 29 – Travel back to Tokyo
Oct 30 – Tokyo (Stay in Shibuya?)
Oct 31 – Tokyo night out?
Nov 01 – Tokyo evening flight out
I’ll be based in Ueno for the first Tokyo leg, but I’m wondering where’s best to stay for the last Tokyo part. Would Shibuya be a good choice, or is there somewhere else you’d recommend?
Any advice on how to spend the days in these cities (Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara) would be hugely appreciated! We’re thinking of doing the Teamlab planets exhibition in Tokyo, the Kyoto river boat ride & bamboo forest, and the deer forest in Nara.
Thank you! 🙂
