Looking advice – Should we extend more than 21 Days in this Itinerary? Travelling in the end of April till May 2023 Tokyo, Osaka, Nara, Kyoto and Tokyo

Hi all! Couple *early 30s travelling to Japan for 21 days in the end of April till May 2023. We enjoy markets, parks, food, long walks around cities, learning about culture, etc*

​

We have an **opportunity to extend our trip** and we are open to do it however there are still some days to be determined also after that. We have no idea to what place should we go.

All opinions are very welcome! 🙂

* ***Important side note:*** *Airbnb/Places to stay are already booked so we can’t change cities of this itinerary till the 21st day, after that, it’s totally up to us.*
* ***Extra Question:*** are we *fitting too much for each day? We generally walk around 15-18 miles(25/30 kms) in these kind of trips.*

​

So here’s the draft:

**Tokyo**

1 day

* Arrival at Narita Airport late afternoon

2 day

* Shibuya
* Shinjuku

3 day

* Ginza
* Imperial Palace

4 day

* Yokohama
* Chinatown
