Wife and I are going for a 18 days trip to Japan. I made a itinerary but I’m having difficulties to know if I am packing too much in some days.
Also, we would like to stay one day in a Ryokan. It would be great if it also had a private onsen. I don’t know if I should search for one in Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka or stay on night in one in Kawaguchiko or Hakone.
Any recommendations on the Ryokan and on what I should change?
PS: I have some day trips in the list to do in case we have free days in Tokyo (Kawagoe, Enoshima, Nikko)
