Hello, I am hoping to travel to Korea & Japan this June for 18 days with my partner as it will be the only time we are free. Hoping to travel Japan earlier on to avoid rain, though not sure how effective that will be. Our flights are from Seoul. This is the rough itinerary we have.
4/6: Arrive Korea 7.20pm
– Fly straight to Tokyo that night
5/6-8/6: Tokyo (4 nights)
– Day 1: senso-ji, sky tree, ueno park, imperial palace, akibara in the evening
– Day 2: Shibuya crossing, shinjuku
– Whole day at Ghibli museum/ park assuming it’s opened by then
– Whole day at Disney sea
9/6: Fujiyoshida (1 night)
– day trip vs overnight stay at Hotel konansou
– We wish to see my Fuji but not sure how the weather will permit during June. I was thinking to monitor the weather during my time in Tokyo and if there is a particularly sunny day we could change our plan and book a 1 day trip to Mt Fuji?
10/6 – 13/6: Kyoto (4 nights)
– 2 days to explore area of interest: Fushimi Inari Shrine, Gion, Arashiyama, Tenryuji temple, Monkey park Iwatayama, Kinkakuji temple, Sanjusangendo temple, Nijo castle, Kiyomizudera temple,
– 1 day trip to Osaka (Tsuyo-no-tenjinja shrine, Osaka castle and park, Shitennoji temple, Namba yasaka shrine)
– 1 day trip to Nara (deer park)
14/6-15/6: Hiroshima (2 night)
– Hiroshima peace memorial museum and gardens, Atomic bomb dome, Hiroshima castle, Hiroshima Orizuru tower.
– Day trip to Miyajima (Itsukuashima shrine, Ropeway, Daisho In temple)
16/6: travel to Fukuoka – travel to Busan via ferry/ flight
16/6-18/6: Busan (3 nights)
19/6: Gyeongju (1 night/ day trip from Busan)
20/6 – 22/6: Seoul
22/6 night: flight home
I am hoping to purchase the 7 days JR Pass from the 9/6-16/6 to travel across Japan.
Any help would be appreciated thanks!
