I’ll be in Japan for 29 days. Traveling with a friend. Going to be in Tokyo, Sapporo, Osaka, Kyoto, Fukuoka, Beppu, and Oita.
Keep in mind that this isn’t our first time in Japan. We’ve both been to Kiyomizudera and the bamboo forest and the Nara deer park off the top of my head.
We also tried our best not to overplan. Should be noted that some of the free days in Tokyo is also for us to go our separate ways and do our own things.
We’re deciding if we should fly back to Tokyo from Kyushu on the 28th or the 29th. If we decide to get there on the 29th we’d either have an extra day in Fukuoka or we’ll add a stop to Hiroshima before going to Fukuoka.

\——————
1. Does this itinerary seem doable?
2. Is either the JR pass or the Kyushu pass worth it for this trip?
3. Always looking for suggestions on things to do. Particularly in Fukuoka and Tokyo.
