Itinerary check- 12 days Tokyo-Kyoto-Osaka

Hi all thanks in advance for your help!

My wife (30f) and I (30m) will be having our long awaited (originally planned honeymoon from March 2020) last week of March/first week of April. So far I have most of my itinerary locked in but would love help refining and adding!

Day 1: -Fly into Haneda arriving 5:00

-limo bus to shinjuku to drop our luggage at the hotel

-walk to Meiji Jingu

-walk to yoyogi park

-walk to shinjuku crossing

-walk to meguro river cherry blossoms

-train back to hotel near shinjuku Station I realize that is a lot of walking but after sitting on a flight for 11 hours, we’ll need it

Day 2: -Shinjuku gyoen national garden

-Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building

-golden gai

-night shinjuku food/bar tour

Day 3: -Tokyo fish market tour

-teamlabs Planets

-explore Ginza city

Day 4: Open

Day 5: Tokyo Disney sea

Day 6: -Open day time

-dinner at sushi iwase (unless yall have a better Omakase recommendation)

Day 7: -Depart shinjuku and take bullet train to kyoto

• thinking nijo castle and Kyoto imperial palace since we are stsying right in between the two.

-possibly arashiyama bamboo forest

Day 8:

-I want to spend some time sake tasting. Should I do a tour or just go to the highest rated places??

Day 9: -open to recommendations

Day 10: -Check out of hotel and take bullet train to Osaka

-Osaka castle park

-dotombori district

Day 11: -Osaka aquarium

-hanshin tigers baseball game

Day 12: -head home

A couple of basic questions: -my company has an international cell phone plan that I don’t have to pay for. That should be ok and I won’t have to get a pocket wifi right?

-suica card on apple wallet works pretty well and I shouldn’t worry about getting a physical card?

-being a foodie, it feels weird having a lack of reservations for food, but I figure there is so much good stuff there we can kind of decide on a day by day basis. Is that a silly plan?

-I want to go to a baseball game but tickets are so hard to aquire online. Will it be an issue buying day of tickets?

Thank you all in advance and looking forward to hearing your feedback!!!
