Hello! I was hoping to receive some suggestions regarding this itinerary. This will be my third visit to Japan; my last trip was in 2020, just before the pandemic. My girlfriend, brother, and I plan to visit Vietnam first before heading to Japan. Since they have never been to Japan, I want to make sure they experience the country and its winter festival to the fullest.
2/6/24 – Arrive in Osaka @ 7:30 AM. Stay in Osaka for 1 night
2/7/24 – 2/8/24 – Stay in Kyoto 2 nights
2/9/24 – 2/10/24 – Fly to Sapporo 2 nights
2/11/24 – 2/12/24 – Fly back to Tokyo 2 nights
2/13/24 – Fly back to Vietnam
We travel pretty fast. We decided to fly from Tokyo because the flight back to Vietnam from Sapporo is over 9 hours, while Tokyo is only a 5-hour flight. Please share if you feel it might be too rushed. Although I haven't planned the activities yet, the general idea is to experience a variety of things. I'm eager to show them the snow monkeys in Nagano and enjoy outdoor onsens, but time is tight. I can consider adding an extra day if necessary.
OR just do Tokyo + Sapporo.
