My wife and I will be spending 16 days (3/27-4/12) in Japan and I would really appreciate any advice you all have on organizing this very exciting trip. We’ve got our list narrowed down to the following cities: Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara. We fly into HND and leave from the same. Lastly, my wife will be starting her second trimester so rest days are important.
Tokyo
-Get a drink at the Park Hyatt
-Tsukiji Market – famous fish market, it’s open for breakfast. Best sushi.
