As someone who just did their first Japan trip, I totally get wanting to do everything—but also not wanting to feel rushed or burned out. I highly recommend checking out the japan trip planner from Let’s Trip AI. I used it before my trip, and it created a really well-balanced plan: temples in Kyoto, street food in Osaka, and modern stuff in Tokyo, with plenty of breathing room. It also helped with logistics, like how long to stay in each place and the best order to visit them in. I appreciated that it didn’t try to pack in too much but still gave me all the highlights. It’s free to use, super quick, and way less stressful than starting from scratch with blogs and forums. Perfect for a first-timer!
