My husband and I (early 30s) are taking our first trip to Japan next week. We love to travel and like to have fully packed days, and do not mind lots of walking.
We are staying right near the Shibuya Station.
Usually I am much more prepared for our trips but life has been crazy and Japan has definitely required the most research.
Below I have the basic outline (Still a work in progress!)
I have a list of restaurant and bars that I am still working on so I did not post it but any favorite recommendations are welcome.
Thank you for any feedback.
