Hey folks, just wanting to get some opinions on my preliminary itinerary for October, trying to finalize it and am open to suggestions. It will be me and my wife for our honeymoon. Mostly, I’m unsure if I want to spend 2 days on n Osaka or do 2 days in Kyoto. I know I want be able to do everything on the lists but I will eventually cut it down. For now, we are probably staying in the shibuya area but I am open to suggestions. Currently, it looks like this:
Day 1: arrival in Tokyo (shibuya): mostly wanting to be relaxed on this day, mostly just spend the day exploring places. I would love suggestions for private onsens if you have any. May also go to the menu shrine.
Day 2: shibuya Shibuya street – Shibuya Takeashita Street – Shibuya Nintendo Store -Shibuya city Jump shop in Shibuya -Shibuya Meiji Shrine – Shibuya
Day 3: shinjuku: I know there’s plenty to do in shinjuku, we would do a lot of exploring but also open to suggestions!
Day 4: minato: Tokyo Tower – Minato Tokyo Center for the arts – Minato Roppongi Hills – Minato Teamlab borderless exhibit* – Minato Zozoji Temple – Minato
Day 5: Chiyoda: Imperial Palace – Chiyoda ANIMATE – Chiyoda Ochanomizu (guitar street) – Chiyoda Akihabara Electric town –
Day 6/7: osaka Round 1!!!!! Dotombori (during evening preferably) FOOD!! (Takoyaki, okonomiyaki) Den den town Shin sekei (carnival and arcades) Teamlab botanical garden (at night preferably
If it makes more sense to stay 2 days in Osaka I will do that, but if not then
Day 7/8: Kyoto Mishima market Samurai museum Kyoto tower Arashiyama bamboo forest Fushimi inari shrine
Day 9: return to Tokyo Likely will visit asakusa but open to suggestions.
I apologize, I know it’s not the most well laid out plan, but I am open to any criticism and suggestions thrown my way. Thank you!
