Kyoto -> Himeji -> Hiroshima -> Miyajima -> Osaka -> Hakone – sequence check!

Hi there

My gf and I are staying at a ryokan in Kyoto through the morning of Thurs Nov 24, and we need to get to Hakone by 5pm on Saturday Nov 26 — we are trying to figure out the best way to utilize those 2.5 days!

Here are tentative thoughts so far, but would love ideas on how to better sequence this — we don’t mind getting up early and packing the itinerary, but we do want to keep things realistic and avoid towing our bags around too much if possible.

​

**Does the following sound reasonable or is there a better way to arrange things?**

​

**Thurs Nov 24 (this feels doable – but am worried about taking luggage everywhere)**

8am – breakfast at hotel in Kyoto

9am – depart to Himeji

11-1 Himeji

Transit to Miyajima, perhaps with lunch enroute in Hiroshima or elsewhere

Sightseeing in Miyajima

Dinner & spend the night at ryokan in Miyajima

**Fri Nov 25 (same concern – we will have luggage)**

Breakfast in Miyajima

Transit to Hiroshima

Peace Park, Castle, etc.

Transit to Osaka

Check in to hotel in Osaka

Food stalls on Dotonburi Street for dinner

**Saturday**

Breakfast in Osaka

Head to Hakone
