Is this too packed? Or too little? Are the combination of districts here well considered, or do things like asakusa and odaiba juxtapose too much? IS there anything you’d personally skip, like shinbashi, nezu, or yanaka? Any fat you’d personally cut?
Moreover, are there any places you wish you’d have spared 2 days for?
