bumping an old thread - headed to Japan for the first time -will have a full 10 days on the ground in the land of the Rising Sun. This thread made me wanna have a look, so off I will go. Some questions for the people who have been before - 10 days should be enough to stay in 2 or 3 cities - Tokyo being one, the others I was thinking about were Kyoto and maybe Hiroshoma? all seem easy via the Rail Pass (which I still need to buy) - is this too aggressive for 10 full days?
Also, for accommodation - I was just planning on using airbnb - seems to be lots of availability, pricing seems ok -
Would it be wiser just to hook up with a 10 day tour group, or easy enough to traverse around by myself? (single dude).
I'm on the plane Sept 23rd, starting to get excited!
any more thoughts that haven't been voiced in this thread already - let me have 'em please!!
