Hi there! These both look like great plans, but I recommend the first itinerary as the travel is a little more spaced out and the nightlife in Hiroshima is not a patch on Osaka - Hiroshima is the perfect day trip. You can also use coin lockers in the stations to store luggage while you are on day trips (for example while you are visiting Kobe). These are extremely cheap, safe and cost effective. We have a blog post on how to use coin operated luggage lockers in JR stations on our blog. If these are full, there is also a very well managed left luggage counter at Osaka station that you will also be able to use. See signposts in the station, or ask at the english speaking information counter at the station for directions. Guesthouses in Japan are extremely safe. If you are travelling on a budget, you may also think about staying in YHA Youth Hostels or Hosteling International hostels. If you have a YHA/HI card you can also often get a discount, and many have family rooms that will be more suitable. Youth Hostels, such as this one in Kyoto have a really nice feel and you'll meet lots of other like minded Japanese and foreign travellers. I think you'll have a lot of fun with your itinerary - sounds excellent! |
