Travelling to Japan soon [Updated Version]

Hello again ,

​

I tried to reach the mods asking if I should make a new post or update the old one.
I feel the old one has amazing tips for future travelers and wouldn’t make sense to edit him.
Hope you guys can help me again, I heard your tips and made my
itinerary better.
Post for reference:

This is basicaly the final itinerary, will still make some changes. It’s not a “I must do this”, its just a plan that I’m willing to skip if something better comes on with some “musts” I personaly enjoy. 🙂
