Hello All,
Need a little help on my Tokyo itinerary for April. Wife and I will be traveling from USA for first time. Does this make sense? Will I get to experience some of the major things in Tokyo? Anything else I should be aware of?
Planning to get the JR Pass – will this be sufficient for this type of commuting around the city?
Also I would like to try to fit Ghibli Museum in at some point. Is this possible & where/how could it work best?
Sorry for any spelling errors in advance. This is a general idea.
