JJapan Trips

Japan March Trip, Jammed Pack 17 Day Trip (F1)

  • February 16, 2026

I have been organising my itenery for a 18 Day trip and I have been lucky enough to plan it around the Japanese Grand Prix staring from Osaka.

Because I focused on the 3 weeks, It just so happens that got tickets for Pokemon Cafe Osaka, Studio Ghibli Park and Pokepark Kanto on the dates I had available.

Considering I have been to Japan already (Niseko, Tokyo & Kyoto), I left out a fair bit in Tokyo as I did most of it last time.

This quick Itenery is below (in date order), most can't be booked yet, everything that can has been. The rest should be easy if I book in advance.
