I am going with my family, we are four my Dad and my two siblings age 12 and 18. This is a life long dream for me but I have a limited knowledge of how travel within Japan works. Date’s are not set but it will be during July.
My plan is one week in Tokyo and one week in Kyoto. I want to see as much as possible of both of these places. Could I have any recommendations of what places to go to, any events or special locations to visit. I also want to know the best way to travel around, should I get a JR pass, or would buying the day passes for the subways and individual passes for the shinkansen when we go to Kyoto be better?
Also any recommendations on hotel accommodations? Or any advice you can give me I would really appreciate it. Thank you!
