1 of 13
This is an illustrative route, rather than a fixed itinerary. The final route, stays and experiences are shaped around your dates and priorities.
Tokyo is for neighbourhoods such as Yanaka, Daikanyama and Asakusa, plus museums and food. Spend one or two nights in Hakone for Lake Ashi, the Open-Air Museum and a ryokan stay if it is the right fit. Kyoto then has enough days for Fushimi Inari, Nishiki Market, Gion and one quieter temple area. We confirm rail seats and luggage forwarding around your dates.
