​
**we have 5 days remaining**
and now we dont know exactly what to do thats where you guys come in
* we throught about spending a day at nara in an airbnb
* going down to wakayama
* also going to hiroshima
* what would be the best places to visit during our last 5 days ?
**The budget will be around $1700 per person**
**We will be spending 5 days in Tokyo in our friend’s house and the rest of the days we will be in hotels and Airbnb ( yes we will split costs for hotel rooms and Airbnb )**
**Transportation**
I mentioned at the beginning that I have a friend who already lives in Tokyo and he will take us everywhere. We plan on using a 7-day JR pass, which I think we will use to travel from Tokyo to Osaka, Osaka to Kyoto, Osaka to Hiroshima, Osaka to Nara, and Nara to Tokyo.
​
It will be helpful if you guys could guide me what to add and remove and what to do in these last few days.
