Hi there, I am planning for a 12 day journey with my spouse and 1 yr previous son for 20 Sep – 1 Oct. My spouse and I’ve gone to Japan collectively (Osaka -> Kyoto -> Tokyo), however this might be our first time touring with our son.

Our earlier journey was tremendous packed, and we walked 20-25k steps/day, this time spherical I am considering to take a slower tempo (10-15k steps/day?) given we most likely want frequent breaks to feed our son / nap time.

My thought was to base ourselves in Tokyo space given straightforward direct flight in/in a foreign country, and can simply do side-trips to surrounding cities in a extra leisurely tempo relatively than attempting to pack too many cities/transferring incessantly.

Here is my preliminary itinerary. Would admire your ideas/feedback.

twenty first (D2/Thu): Ueno (Ueno Park, Ueno Zoo, Ameyokocho); Asakusa (Sensoji Temple, Nakamise dori)
