Hi. As the title says, I will be traveling to Japan from July 31st to August 16th. We have made an itinerary and I would like your advice on the places we will be visiting and also on transportation. Here’s the itinerary with the places we’re considering staying at.
* Tokyo – Staying in tokyo
* Yoyogi Park
* Senso ki temple
* Meiji Shrine
* Sensoji Temple
* Shibuya crossing
* TeamLab Borderless
* Akihabara
* Saitama – Staying in tokyo
* Omiya Bonsai Village
* Hikawa Shrine
* Chiba – Staying in tokyo
* DisneyLand
* DisneySea
* Yamanashi – Just passtrough to stay in Osaka
* Fuji-Q Highland
* Kyoto – Staying in Osaka
* Mercado Nishiki
* Arashiyama Bamboo Grove
* Osaka – Staying in Osaka
* Universal studios
* Osaka Castle
* Hyogo – Staying in Osaka
* Himeji Castle
* Mount Koya – Staying in Osaka
* Okunoin Temple
* Hiroshima – Not sure if we are staying in Hiroshima or Shirarahama
* Memorial da Paz
* Miyajima Island
* Hiroshima Castle
* Shirarahama – Staying in Shirarahama
* Just to get 2 or 3 days of rest in a beach
Regarding the trips, we’re thinking of purchasing a 72-hour Tokyo Subway Ticket for getting around Tokyo, and individual tickets for Chiba and Saitama. Then, we’ll get a 7-day JR Pass for the rest of the trips, considering they are long journeys.
Staying in one city while visiting others is to avoid constantly changing hotels with backpacks on our backs and also to save a bit.
What do you think about the itinerary and the travel plan? Any input is welcome.
Thanks
