Itinerary Check Feb 2025 – Thoughts and feedback

Hello fellow Redditors!

My wife and I are excited to embark on our dream honeymoon adventure in Japan in Feb 2025! We're planning to explore three amazing areas – Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka – and we'd love your recommendations!
A bit about us: we're both vegetarians, so we'd appreciate tips on delicious veg-friendly eats. We also don't drink, so we'll be focusing on other fun activities. Our interests include shopping for anime goodies, scoring unique denim finds, and discovering incredible watch deals. Help us make the most of our Japanese getaway!

My current plan:

Day 1: Kyoto Arrival
Explore the Gion district and relax that day.

Day 2: Kyoto
Fushimi Inari hike (start no later than 6am)
Kuramadera Temple
Explore that area

Day 3: Kyoto
Travel to Arashiyama to visit the Bamboo Grove and Tenryuji before having breakfast.
Walk/hike up to Daihikaku Senko-ji to chill and enjoy the view.

Day 4: Travel to Osaka
Will do luggage forwarding to Osaka Hotel

Day 5: Flight to Tokyo, Explore
Explore Akihabara
Visit Animate and Mandarake Complex

Day 6: Ginza

Day 7: Mt Fuji

Day 8: Shibuya

Few thoughts:
1. Is going in 1st week of Feb a good decision? Given it will be cold out there.
2. Will vegetarian food be an issue?
3. Is Nara worth the visit?
4. Anything else we should include or remove?
