So, basically I am currently planning a 3 week trip to Japan from Oct 22 to Nov 12. We'll start for a few days in Tokyo, then fly to Seoul, come back to Hiroshima, Osaka, and Kyoto.
Then I'm trying to decide if heading up to Kanazawa is worth it, or just to go through Matsumoto, and then down to the 5 lakes area then back to Tokyo to fly out.
We really like the outdoors and are up for some mild hiking and onsen time. Any recommendations for choosing between those two cities or if there are other suggestions for more calm cities to relax in… very open to suggestion. My wife and I are active, in our mid to late 30s, enjoy all types of food and care about experiences. Appreciate any help with this. Will post my full Itinerary for review soon 🙂 Thanks!
