Hello! We’re a big group of 9 pax with mostly older people, then young adults in their 20s. We’re mostly staying in Osaka and 1 night in Kyoto, so in this Kobe trip we rented a car. Checking if the schedule is doable or is the itinerary overpacked?
Notes: We won’t be doing a lot of shopping here, mainly walking around Kitano-Cho and would love to travel local restos and cafes!
