Can yall help me with my itinerary? It’s for 16 days but I’m okay making chances :)
This will be the first major trip my friend group and I will be taking so we want to see a lot as most of us will probably not go out the country again.
Day 1: Tokyo- Arrival and just rest
Day 2: Tokyo- Shopping in Harajuku and Shibuya (Jins, Kumachan Onsen, The Harry Potter Store, and White Atelier)
Day 3: Tokyo- DisneySea (maybe the Pokemon Cent at Tokyo Bay even tho I know it’s a far train ride)
Day 4: Tokyo- The making of Harry Potter and Sunshine City Shopping
Day 5: Tokyo- Yokohama and Chinatown
Day 6: Tokyo- Dawn Avatar Cafe and Akihabara Shopping
Day 7: Tokyo- Puroland and more shopping (we all agreed we didn’t want to do a full day at Puroland)
Day 8: Tokyo- Senso-ji Temple, Zen Craft Studio, Asakusa Milk Cafe, and Maruyoshi Furin
Day 9: Travel to Kyoto for the day (Fushimi Inari Tasha and Araki Shrine) and the Miffy Cafe (my friend does want to go to the Bamboo Forest but idk if we’ll be able to fit it) than travel to Osaka before the train stops
Day 10: Osaka- Universal Studios and Gap Factory
Day 11: Osaka/Kagawa- Katsuoji early in the morning and then go to Kagawa (if we have time maybe see the Umeda Sky Building) (we’ll probably stay the night in Kagawa but we’re going to see the Pokemon center and the udon)
Day 12: Travel to Karatsu (this is a 4-5 hour train ride I believe)
Day 13: Karatsu- Karatsu Castle, Exhibition Hall, and Kagamiyama Onsen
Day 14: Travel back to Tokyo (around 7 hours)
Day 15: Tokyo- Gotokuji Temple
Day 16: Departure Day
I do have a question.
Do you think I should remove Karatsu (I wanna go because Yuri on Ice is my favorite anime but at the same time the travel feels like a lot even tho all my friends say they’ll be okay with the train ride).
- If you do say to remove it, should we keep it as 16 days or 14 would be better or do a full day in Kyoto?Is the Kyoto day even possible? I do wanna go to this Kimono store I saw that has second hand kimonos for sell.
Are we missing anything if we choose to do a half day at Puroland? We don’t care for the meet and greets or the show. I mostly just want the merch and my other female friend just wants to do the boat ride
Osaka to Kagawa. I really wanna go to the Slowpoke Pokemon Center (because it’s my favorite Pokemon to the point I have a tattoo of him on my arm) but will it be a long shot?
We are okay spending money and have been saving for a few years (that’s why I say most of us will probably not go out the country again because this is almost 3 years in the making)
