TOKYO Itinerary Check – 6 Days – First Time in Japan this November!

Hi everyone,

First of all, digging through previous posts on this sub has been amazing. You’re all so helpful.

**I’m looking to get input on the 6 days I have in Tokyo spread across two legs of the trip. Optimizations, recommendations for things I’ve missed, etc!**

As you can see, the second leg is a bit empty right now (11/17 – 11/19), would love other suggestions or things I’ve missed. Maybe hot springs somewhere for relaxation?
