Hello! Just want an itinerary check for our upcoming trip. Please feel free to suggest any changes. If I miss some places it’s because we’ve been there. This itinerary was built around requested spots and activities for our kids. Note: we’re staying near Tsukiji/Ginza so every evening will be spent in the neighborhood except first night.

Take the train (Keisei Sky Access) to Takaracho station
Spend the evening exploring Toyosu Senkyaku Banrai

How’s the weather during these dates?
What’s the most efficient and cost-effective way to travel from Kyoto to Narita airport? Is our schedule too tight? Leaving at 8AM to make it to Narita around 12PM.
Do we need separate suica cards for our two young kids?
Luggage forwarding? What’s the pros and cons? I plan to just bring our stuff on our own though (Tokyo to Kyoto and Kyoto to Narita airport)
Thanks and peace to all!
