Hey everyone, I’m gonna be going to Japan for the first time in mid August for my birthday, and just wanted to ask if anyone has ever just gone to Japan for a short amount of time and still had a blast doing that? I’ll be going for 5 days coming from Europe.
I would have loved to stay in Japan longer for like a week or two to explore more of Japan, but due to the budget I’ve set for the trip, I still ended up getting my airplane ticket to land in Tokyo and staying in Ginza, and I’m wondering if I should just roam Tokyo and really explore its areas vs visiting Kyoto, Osaka and other places that seem to require more time?
I am more of a clothes shopping/skincare shopping type of person, but also love to do the touristy things. I just wanna endulge myself in Tokyo specifically, eat some great food, experience Japanese culture while I can. I hope to hear from others that have had a similar 5 day itinerary that can give a 1st time solo traveler some tips to maximise my time out there.
I mean, I guess I know it will be worth it regardless of the trip length is what im theorising, but you know what im saying, hopefully lol.
