Hi guys, This is my 1st time posting on japan-guide. Please bear with my lack of knowledge about japan as this is my 1st time going to Japan.
So here's my initial itinerary on Nagoya Trip Date: 17th to 24th April 2020
- planning on buying Alpine-Takayama-Matsumoto Area Tourist Pass (JR pass)
Day 1: 17/4/2020 7am arrive to Nagoya airport - after settling down with all the ticket and stuff, I will be heading towards Matsumoto directly using the JR pass on the 1st day - will be visiting Narai, Magome, Tsumago, Matsumoto Castle
Day 2: 18/4/2020 7am - head towards Tateyama kurobe alpine route for the snow wall and dam. Maybe we will spend the whole day over there ( whole route should be covered by the JR pass??? ) - around 4-5 pm, I will be rushing towards Kanazawa from Toyama ( no covered by the JR pass )
Day 3: 19/4/2020 - Visit Kanazawa castle, Omicho market, Kenrokuen, Nagamachi, Shinto shrine
Day 4: 20/4/2020 - Heading towards Shirakawa-go and spend a half-day there - heading towards Takayama and visit the old town before settling down
Day 5: 21/4/2020 Plan A: roam around Takayama, including morning market, jinya, old town, etc Plan B: Shinhotaka Ropeway - heading towards Nagoya around evening and rest
Day 6: 22/4/2020 - Tennogawa park, Tsushima shrine, Nabano Sato, Nagashima spa land, Mitsui outlet park jazz
Day 7: 23/4/2020 - nagoya castle, Osu kanon, Atsuta jingu, Oasis 21, and last min plan.
Day 8: 24/4/2020 back to the airport and complete the trip
Now here's some question: 1. Out of all these places that I go, any suggestion on some places that I must visit other than what i had stated in the itinerary? 2. Does the Shoryudo Nagoya pass cover the trip to Nagashima spa land? 3. If I going to buy some Gundam model kits from Japan, what are the ways to bring those back without using the delivery? I heard the delivery fee is not cheap 4. I heard some say, Gifu and Toyama is a good place to visit, any suggestion on that?
My budget for this whole trip is around SGD$1800-2000 or less, which I have already done some calculation. ( flight ticket included )
Please do correct my itinerary as this is my 1st time ever get to travel overseas.
Lastly, so sorry and thank you so much for your patience for reading my itinerary and questions, i might be too over-excited looking forward on this trip to Japan.
