Day 3 unless is started early with Meiji-jingu (8am-ish) is likely to be a tad too much.
You are kind of all over the place when it comes to locations. Why go to Meiji Jingu on day 3 when you are going to Harajuku on day 2? They are adjacent.
My recommendation is to make sure you’re looking at the physical locations of where you’re going so that you’re not spending an undue amount of time on transport.
Hopefully you don’t get jetlag too bad because to me that seems like a really ambitious itinerary for such a short period of time. As someone else said, you should map these locations out and group them geographically so you can see where they are in relation to each other. Then, put together a new itinerary to get a better idea of what’s realistic and what’s not.
Tbh, where do you stay and when? 3rd of may – 7th of mau is golden week, very busy
Day 1: just shibuya? Like, you wanna shopping there? Reasonable time is like you will be in shibuya around 3 pm. You can add in like meiji jingu shrine and harajuku there if you going to buy nothing, a bit packed, but it efficient.
Day 2: remove harajuku (since it is in day 1) and poop museum for teamlabs planet?
Day 3 is ok if you remove meiji shrine to day 1
Day 4: why disneyland? Why not disneysea? It is like the only disneysea in the world
Day 5 you must be really like that place if you ok travelling for 2 hours for it, otherwise, it is ok
Day 6: shopping for souvenir at don quijote, daiso, village vanguard etc?
This seems like a chat gpt itinerary 🤣
Book the Ghibli museum in advance. There is no Day of Ticket sales, and they sell out fast.
