We have cleared up the day for you to explore and enjoy Japan as you wish.

Today's itinerary will take you to some of Tokyo's most iconic and vibrant locations, beginning with a visit to the Fukagawa Edo Museum. This museum provides a fascinating glimpse into Tokyo's history, particularly during the Edo period. As you explore, you'll step back in time and wander through meticulously recreated streets from Japan's traditional Edo era. Next, we'll make our way to Tsukiji, where you can experience the bustling Tsukiji Outer Market. Here, you'll encounter a wide array of fresh flavors and delectable dishes. Tsukiji Outer Market is renowned for its seafood offerings and is the perfect place to savor mouthwatering sushi and other culinary delights. Afterward, we'll head to the historic district of Asakusa, where you'll have the opportunity to explore the iconic Sensoji Temple. This temple is one of Tokyo's most popular and revered religious sites, known for its stunning architecture and cultural significance. You can immerse yourself in Japanese traditions, capture memorable photographs, and browse the bustling Nakamise Shopping Street for traditional souvenirs and snacks. Finally, we'll conclude our day with a visit to Shibuya, where you can witness the famous Hachiko Statue and experience the excitement of Shibuya Crossing. The Hachiko Statue pays tribute to the heartwarming story of Hachiko, the loyal dog, and is a popular meeting point for locals and visitors alike. Shibuya Crossing, on the other hand, is a mesmerizing spectacle where thousands of pedestrians cross simultaneously. It's a must-see phenomenon that offers a glimpse into Tokyo's vibrant urban life.

Our day begins with a bullet train experience to Kyoto, allowing you to enjoy the thrill of riding the Shinkansen, Japan's high-speed train. The Shinkansen is not only a rapid mode of transportation but also an essential Japanese experience. As you journey to Kyoto in comfort and speed, be sure to capture some stunning photos of the scenic landscapes along the way.

Upon arrival in Kyoto, we'll delight in a unique dining experience at a rotating sushi restaurant. Here, you can savor a variety of delicious sushi dishes while enjoying the fun and novelty of the rotating sushi conveyor belt.

Our next stop will be the majestic Todai-ji Temple (Eastern Great Temple), where you can explore the grandeur of one of Japan's most iconic Buddhist temples. Inside, you'll find the impressive Great Buddha Hall, which houses one of the largest bronze statues of Buddha in the world.

Following our visit to Todai-ji Temple, we'll head to Nara Park, known for its friendly deer population. You can interact with these gentle creatures, feed them, and even take memorable photos as you enjoy the serene natural surroundings.

Next, our journey takes us to Fushimi Inari Shrine, a renowned Shinto shrine famous for its thousands of vibrant red torii gates that create a captivating path. You can take a leisurely stroll through this picturesque shrine, capturing photos and embracing the tranquil atmosphere.

As evening descends, we'll make our way to Kyoto Station to witness the enchanting illumination display, transforming the station into a dazzling spectacle. This dazzling light show at Kyoto Station is a perfect way to conclude our day of exploration.

Our day begins with a visit to Arashiyama to walk through the Bamboo Groove Forest. The morning's sunlight passing through the bamboo makes for a perfect morning sight. We will also enjoy a spirited rickshaw ride through Arashiyama. Guests can enjoy seeing many of the traditional-style shops and temples during the ride. Following our time in Arashiyama, we will head to the Golden Pavilion, or Kinkakuji Temple, a Japan’s must see attraction where the two upper floors are covered in gold leaf. The reflection of the golden temple on the lake adds to the stunning sight.

After our time at the Golden Pavilion, we will stop at a sake museum for some sampling and to learn the history of Japan's national drink. We will also be stopping for a kaiten sushi lunch during your Japan tour. Keeping with the traditional feel, we included a tea-ceremony to help you relax and enjoy Japanese culture. After our tea ceremony, it's off to Nara to Todaiji Temple. Todaiji Temple holds the World Guinness Record as the largest wooden building. Inside the temple, you will behold the largest Buddha statue in Japan. Just outside the temple is the Nara Deer Park, where you will be greeted by numerous deer that roam around freely. The deer here at the park are known to be friendly and may even bow at you for a little treat. We then return to the hotel.

We'll hop on the Shinkansen for an exhilarating ride back to Tokyo. Once we arrive, we'll dive into the heart of Tokyo for one last hurrah, making the most of our remaining free time. It's a chance to explore, shop, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere of this dynamic city before our journey concludes tomorrow.
