Tokyo and Kyoto Itinerary check and how to fit onsen (if possible)
Hi there, our hotels are already booked for Kyoto and Tokyo, but want to fit in a more traditional onsen into our itinerary. Would there be an opportunity to? anything to skip or consolidate?
For context:
- Sat arrive in Kyoto
- Kyoto (Explore Sagano and Tenryu-ji, Hanamikoji st after dinner)
- Kyoto (Kiyomizudera at sunrise, Higashiyama and then maybe Konchi-in, Murin-an)
- Kyoto (Fushimi Inari and then maybe Sanjo-dori and then Pontocho alley in evening)
- Kyoto to Tokyo
- Tokyo (Meiji, Harajuku, Shibuya; Daikanyama/Nakameguro/Ebisu in evening)
- Tokyo (Tsukiji fish market, team labs, ginza; Azabu-Juban in evening)
- Tokyo (Asakusa, Ueno, Yanaka, Jimbocho and Giants game)
- Nakameguro canal walk, Kichijoji, Ghibli museum and shimokitzawa
About us: though its not stated in our itinerary our priority is food, we love beautiful neighborhoods and largely are NOT museum people (though we are doing Ghibli in Tokyo and TeamLabs if you count that). While my husband is a big hiker, I would say I enjoy hikes if they have a beautiful path or are worth it for the final destination. We don't want to spend our entire time at temples, 2-3 would be ideal. Roaming around neighborhoods, checking out cool shops mixed with a few key tourist items. Hope that helps.
