This is my new Tokyo itinerary after getting low ratings on my first one
I listened to your criticism and redone my itinerary, and hopefully this one is way better
I focused more on simplicity to enjoy my time and not to feel rushed
Note: I didn’t include restaurants or specific places I want to visit. The itinerary primarily focuses on the main highlights. Also, I won’t strictly adhere to the times in the itinerary. I will be using it as a general guide, so I might go a bit later or earlier depending on when shops open and such.
