Hi,

My family (boy 3.5 years old) and I are planning to visit Japan for the first time in a few days, any chance you can validate our itinerary?

Day 1: arriving in Japan (Tokyo Haneda Airport)
Day 2: Tokyo
Day 3: Tokyo
Day 4: Tokyo
Day 5: Kawaguchiko
Day 6: Kyoto
Day 7: Kyoto
Day 8: Kyoto
Day 9: Nara
Day 10: Osaka
Day 11: Osaka
Day 12: Osaka
Day 13: Kobe
Day 14: Kobe
Day 15: Hiroshima
Day 16: Tokyo
Day 17: leaving Japan (Tokyo Narita Airport)

We have purchased the JP Pass and are planning to activate it on Day 5. Having said that, due to peak season, I believe we should book the seats in advance, right? (for buses/trains, etc.). Is there a general website where we can do that or there are different websites?

Also, what's the best option to travel from Tokyo Haneda Airport to Akasaka Minato? Arriving on March 31 @ 22:45 so might be tricky considering it's weekend.

If you can provide some feedback, suggestions, etc. that would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Eduard

Hi there,

Overall your itinerary looks good and a JR Pass will work well.

For information on seat reservations see:
https://www.jrpass.com/blogs/reserving-seats-boarding-the-bullet-train

Basically they can be made in person at any JR station.

For your arrival, try to catch the Keikyu line to Tokyo station and from there the metro to Asasaka station. From there you can walk to the hotel. In case of a late arrival, the only option is to go with a Taxi but that will be pricey.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
