Suggested itinerary 2014/12/13 12:24
Hi, I am from Indonesia.
I will travel with my husband on may 2015, we are at our late 20. This is our first time to japan n maybe we won't return again to japan.
So I need suggestion where should we visit in Japan.
We arrive at Kansai on Friday 8 may morning and will depart from Haneda on Wednesday 13 may midnight. So we have 6 days full in Japan.
We like to see culture, nature, modern, and spend 1 day full in disneysea also.
We want to go as many place we can go, stay at different accomodation, n we dont mind fast pace...
Can u give us the best of japan to visit?

6 Days is not much.

So, you should do something like

8 F (Osaka)/(Nara)/Kyoto
9 Sa Kyoto
10 Su Shirakawa Go (minshuku?)
11 M Alpine route
12 Tu (Fuji-san)/Tokyo
13 W Tokyo / Disney

Just drop Nikko from Joshua's plan and add your desires...

Shirakawa-go can be seen and walked in two hours. Three is it is full winter.

Alpine route can be completed in a day.

So to answer your question: Yes.
There is enough time.

Sure, but it is better done in an overnight at a minshuku. It's a completely different experience, and there's a reason why its the top rated attraction among hundreds listed on this site:
