9 Days in Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara & Osaka: The Complete Golden Route
Japan's classic first-timer route, stretched to nine days with Nara in the middle: three days in Tokyo, three in Kyoto, a day trip to Nara, and two in Osaka. Tokyo brings the neon, the temples of Asakusa and the food halls of Ginza; the Shinkansen drops you in Kyoto for Fushimi Inari, Gion and Arashiyama; then it's south to Nara for Todai-ji's Great Buddha and the deer of Nara Park; and finally west to Osaka, Japan's kitchen, for Dotonbori street food, the castle and retro Shinsekai. The plan re-plans itself around how you travel: classic, foodie or family, fast or slow.
