My aunty and I are off to Japan for two weeks in November. I’m absolutely pumped!
I feel like I might be pushing some days but tried to alternate with more easy going days. I want to make sure that we make the most out of our time while keeping it relatively easy going and enjoyable.
Any thoughts, recommendations or insight very much appreciated. I can’t really change the days at this stage since i’m fairly set on flights/accomodation so sticking to 6 nights Tokyo, 3 nights Kyoto, 4 nights Osaka. Though interested to know if the Hiroshima/Miyajima days might be unrealistic.
