Japan Autumn Itinerary with Sunidhi Sonthalia

Planning Japan in autumn and don't want to spend weeks piecing together blogs and reels? This is the exact day-by-day itinerary I follow, from landing in Tokyo to flying out of Osaka.

It's built for first-timers who want the big sights without a chaotic schedule, so every day has a clear focus, realistic timings, and the transport between stops.

This is for you if:

• You're travelling in autumn, with the foliage usually peaking around November-December.
• You want a route that flows naturally from Tokyo to Mt. Fuji, Kyoto, Nara and Osaka
• You want to know what to book in advance, and which time slots to aim for
• You're travelling in spring, since there's a section on swapping autumn spots for cherry blossom ones

I've also added practical tips along the way, like the best time to arrive at popular spots, which seats to book for Fuji views, and where to store your luggage.

Timings, entry fees and closing days can change, so double-check them before you go.
