Our trip is coming quickly – we’re planning a museum-heavy trip to Japan & I wonder if this schedule looks like it’s doable? (The Hakone section is iffy, but seeing museums early is a priority so maybe it’s ok?) I don’t have any dinner reservations yet – figure we’ll generally wing it as all are adventurous eaters, and no travel tickets scheduled yet as it’s too early for those. I feel like this schedule makes sense on google maps, but reality vs computer…
Also, are there any museums in Tokyo/Hakone/Kyoto/Osaka (especially modern/contemporary) that we should consider adding in or swapping out? We’ve seen several versions of the immersive “experience museums” so left out the TeamLab intentionally, and we’re not anime fans, so left that segment of experiences out, too. Many thanks!!
