Hi so this is my first time making a full blown itinerary for a country. I like to just to wing it, but I think Japan needs one. Spending a total of 3 weeks! This is is what I have:
- Please let me know what you think
- Any recommendations for food, especially cheap sushi 😍
- I did the math and it’s not worth it for me to get the JR pass and instead book everything the day off! But are any benefits that I’m not thinking of? Are trains sold out often?
- Thank you for taking the time to help me 🙏
