Here's your ultimate guide to an unforgettable 14 days journey in a country where every corner tells a story. In just two weeks, you can immerse yourself in Japanese culture, history and breathtaking landscapes. So, let's go! You'll likely arrive in Tokyo, the city of technology and wonders. Do we need our luggage? You might be overwhelmed at first by the neon lights, crowds and food options. We just ate for 3 euros per person, this amazing sushi? Yeah! But you'll soon fall in love with it. On day one in Japan, take a moment to breath, sort out your travel cards, money... Oh, this is how the yen looks like, 1000 yen. Sim cards and so on. Visit the convenience stores. I didn't expect that it's all Japanese, like there's no English at all. Our first 7-Eleven coffee. This can make or break your holiday. Yeah, the whole holiday, yeah. It smells delicious! It's a bit watery. Yeah, I thought so, yeah. Let's go back from Japan. Uh oh! Get a good night's sleep and gear up for your three full days in Tokyo, plus a day trip to Mount Fuji. We are on our way to the most popular site worldwide. And I think you might know where we're going. Start your next day early with a visit to the Senso-Ji Temple in Asakusa. Good morning from the Senso-Ji Temple. And we came here early morning to enjoy the place, maybe by ourselves. No, I think it looks pretty quiet. And everything just looks amazing. It's so pretty and like we were just at the start and now you have this long walkway and I think at the end there are the temple complex starts. Take your time to soak in the beauty, but keep an eye on the clock because at 8.30am you'll want to be in the line for Benitsuru We're standing in a queue to make a reservation for hopefully later today to eat something really special. It's a Japanese pancake and it's not a pancake what you might think it is, it's a really special pancake. The most delicious and unforgettable pancake experience ever. This is a meal you remember for the rest of your life. After your pancake treat, explore the surrounding area. It's beautiful. In the afternoon, head over to Shinjuku. Enjoy the craziness of the city and find rest in the beautiful Shinjuku National Garden. If you're lucky, you'll find beautiful cherry blossoms. By this time you might be wondering how big Tokyo is. Lucky you, you'll find out soon. Visit the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. We're going to our next viewpoint, but I think we have to go through this evening rush because it's over there. So we went to Shinjuku to go to the Tokyo Government Building because from this building you have a free view all of Tokyo. You go to the 45th floor and you have a panoramic view. It's amazing and all for free. So don't spend money on crazy towers here in Tokyo. We have been to many roofs and tops around the world and paid so much money to get a nice view, but I think this is the best one ever. On your second day of exploring, head over to Yanasan, also known as Old Tokyo. Despite being lesser known, this area is a hidden gem. Wander through the charming neighborhoods, savor some fresh sushi in the park. We just got this sushi from a place up there. It was super cheap, super fresh and I think it's going to be delicious. This much for I think 900 yen, two plates. Less than 900 yen. The other day in the Tokyo city also we found a really nice sushi place. It's also extremely cheap. Sushi training is super cheap. You have to watch that video. And you can also find some nice sushi in 7-11. It's nice. Super fresh. And don't miss Ueno Park. It's a sight we will never forget. Look at this. Oh, I've never seen something like this. In the evening, brace yourself for the madness of Akihabara. It's a whole different world, specially with the neon lights at night. And don't forget to pick up some souvenirs. On your fourth day in Tokyo, yes, time flies in Japan. Prepare for something special. Today you'll finally visit Team Lab Planets. So we're getting our instructions now. And first tip, don't wear a skirt because you're on the red light visible. Just remember to book your tickets in advance. It's like stepping into a dream world and is an absolute must-see. They have announced closure a few times, but due to their success, it's still open. You will just spend a few hours at Team Labs, so the rest of the day you can spend in Shibuya. And of course, here you'll find the famous Shibuya Crossing. Cross the crossing, make some selfies, go on the photo with Hachiko, and spend the rest of the day and evening in this area. Today we're gonna explore and show you all the beautiful viewpoints where you can go to take the beautiful Instagram, TikTok photos and videos. For Mount Fuji! And the weather cannot be any better, so let's go, Myra! For the best chance of clearer views, be flexible. It's best to decide this as soon as you arrive in Tokyo and book your transportation tickets early. We recommend exploring Mount Fuji by bicycle. It's an amazing experience. You'll see the mountain from every angle and can stop whenever you want. It's a perfect way to escape the crowds. All this information might sound overwhelming to you. However, we have written it down and marked each location in our Japan travel guide and Google maps. In this guide, you'll find detailed information about everything we did in Japan and the Google maps will help you navigate all the places we visited, the delicious food we had and the accommodations we stayed at. Head over to our website letsmeetabroad.com and order your Japan travel guide. After your time in Tokyo and a day at Mount Fuji, you have two options. If you love hiking, head straight to Osaka. If not, consider stopping at Takayama on your way to Osaka. Takayama, nestled between Tokyo and Osaka, is a cultural gem surrounded by nature. We suggest spending two nights there, giving you a full day to explore. For hiking enthusiasts, we recommend the Kumano Kodo trail. After Tokyo, go to Osaka, a city known for its rawness and shopping opportunities. Check out the longest shopping street in Japan and America Mura for vintage finds. We love to shop vintage. This is the Moscow area. Really just vintage after vintage after vintage shops. Amazing. But Osaka isn't just about shopping. A visit to Osaka Castle is a must. So here it is. Osaka Castle, the most famous castle in Japan. And we're still wondering if we should go inside or we go to the park. And I think we go for the park because it's a beautiful day. Yeah, you can go up there, but I saw photos from the few up there and yeah, I don't know. Don't need to. Spend a full day here and then prepare for your next adventure, the Kumano Kodo. The Kumano Kodo Trail is the most famous walking trail in Japan. This pilgrim route takes you through the mountains, rivers and cozy Japanese countryside. There are different sections you can walk and we decided to start in Nachi Katsuura. Take the train from Osaka to Kii-katsuura, where you'll see the Pacific Ocean and have a chance to stay in a luxurious onsen hotel. Relax, explore the fishing port and gear up for the Kumano Kodo Trail. For more information, watch our dedicated YouTube video on the Kumano Kodo. After two days of hiking, take a bus from Yunomine Onsen to Koyasan. Here we are, we are in Koyasan and behind me you see our stay for tonight because today we are going to stay with Japanese monks and we're really going to live with them. They will cook for us. No clue what it is. Amazing. We can join them in their prayers. It's going to be an awesome experience. Next, head to Kyoto, Japan's most visited city, known for its temples, shrines and the bamboo forest. For a special souvenir, dress up in a kimono and explore Kyoto in style. Finally, some tips for your Japan trip. Spend an extra day in Osaka if you love shopping or extend your stay in Kyoto for more temple visits. Don't just copy a travel plan from internet. Think about what you enjoy most. Japan has something for everyone. If you have questions, let us know. We are here to make your trip unforgettable. Konishiwa is a bit sleepy still. Oh, he wants also waffle. Waffle. Waffle.
