Hey everyone! My wife and I are going on a trip to Tokyo soon and I wanted to get some feedback on our itinerary. We’re both active and enjoy walking around, taking photos, exploring and seeing the sights. We’ll also be flying to Hawaii after the trip to Tokyo. I put together the itinerary with a few principals in mind :
Optimizing the time that we have to see as much as possible.
Don’t go too crazy, take some breaks in between, a day or two where we sleep in or get home early.
No meals planned. I booked a nice Sushi place on the last night, but we plan on mostly just walking in and trying different things.
Main thoughts/concerns:
I’m a little torn on the day trip to Kyoto. On one hand, I’d really love to go, but I don’t want to push ourselves too hard. Thoughts?
My wife is a big Studio Ghibli fan, so we’ll be spending most of Thursday doing that. Still figuring out what we want to do later in the evening, open to suggestions.
