During my two weeks in Japan, I split my time between Tokyo and Osaka, experiencing the best of both cities. If you’re a traveler and not a vacationer then this itinerary is for you because from touch down to take off this trip is jam packed. 

Osaka is one of the few places I’m already dying to go back to. There’s so much to do and see it’s almost impossible to fit everything into one trip but this itinerary gives you the best of Osaka. It’s ideal for first time travelers or even those who have been before but missed a few things. It covers everything from the Umeda Sky Building to an incredibly entertaining sumo show. Osaka has a vibe unlike any other city in Japan and this itinerary will help you experience it all without getting overwhelmed by having to plan it yourself. 

The Tokyo itinerary covers the must-sees like Shibuya Sky and the infamous Mario Kart experience. But it also includes some hidden gems I stumbled upon along the way that really made the trip special. 

Honestly, the food alone is a ready to go to Japan. Every meal was so good! You’ll get the opportunity to try new foods everyday from quick street eats to intimate sit down spots so make sure to pack some loose fitting clothing!

Every recommendation in this itinerary has been personally experienced and thoroughly researched, so you can book with confidence!
