I think that you should first look at a map of Japan to find out the exact location of many of the places you want to see. for example: Day 5-6 Kobe Fushimi Inari Shrine Dotonbori Amanohasidate{qe] Kobe is west of Osaka, nowhere near the Fushimi Inari shrine. That shrine is close to Kyoto on the Kyoto-Nara line. Dotonbori is only an area of Osaka Amanohashidate is way outside Kyoto, totally the opposite direction from the Inari shrine. It looks like you do a lot of going back and forth in your whole itinerary. You have also planned far too many places to see.

Your itinerary still goes all over the place without reason. You already make a scheduling mistake by going on day 2-3 to Aizu--wakamatsu etc. and Bandai-kogen WAY UP North of Tokyo then expecting to be, also on day 3, in Himeji etc. WAY SOUTH of Tokyo!.this is how some towns are located: way out west/Okayama -Himeji- -Kobe-Osaka-Wakayama--east (towards Tokyo but not on the main JR line). Matsuyama, Kochi,Tokushima, Naruto are all better accessed by train from Okayama.It will take at least 2 days to visit Okayama,all these Shikoku towns, Himeji and Kobe. You should then stay overnight in Osaka.The day after see Wakayama then Dotonbori and overnight in Osaka again. The day after U will go to Kyoto and the Fushimi Inari shrine (it takes 3hrs or more to go there and see it)-then go to Amanohashidate and overnight in Kyoto (No visit of Kyoto???).From Kyoto you will go, via Nagoya, to Takayama and Shirawaka-go and stay there.Then go via Nagano to Tokyo. This all I will say as your whole itinerary has too many places to see in the limited time you have and you underestimate the traveling time between each place and the time it takes to see each sight.

reason for such a weird itnerary is because I have been to Japan for 10-11 times. This is the 12th visit that I am exploring Japan :P

Thanks for your patience.
