My trip begins September 16th in Tokyo. This is my second trip to Japan. The first time I did Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka-Nara over something like 10 days on a tour bus when I was younger with my family. Going by myself this time. I generally like to slow travel and stay in places longer if I can. I'm going to take the Shinkansen and another train from Tokyo to Sapporo. I plan on doing day-trips to places around Tokyo, Sapporo, Osaka and Okinawa, but haven't decided what those will be yet. I'm wondering if it's worth it to fly to Ishigaki because I know you can take a ferry from Naha in Okinawa to other closer Islands in the area with good beaches. Looking for suggestions, tips, any input, thanks.
