Itinerary

Day 1 - From Arrival to Dotombori

• Fly into Kansai, Itami, Haneda, or Narita. Preference is descending order, but any will work.

  • If you want/need to spend time in Tokyo before heading to Osaka:

    • Go eat at Tsukiji or Toyosu fish market (perfect opportunity to capitalize on jet lag)

    • Join a pub crawl, find a karaoke bar, or find a cool bar, perhaps with live music

    • Dine at Kaikaya By The Sea

    • Stay in Shibuya: The Millennials ($$$), Nadeshiko ($), or Wise Owls ($)

• Immediately take the train to Osaka-Namba.

• Stay at Dotonbori Hotel.

  • If you’re awake in Osaka with time to kill:

    • walk around Dotombori and see all the animatronic signs

    • visit Spa World (if you have lots of time)

    • find a karaoke bar
