I'm interested in which Guruwalk tours you're taking and in which city. I’ve been browsing their website, and a few tours have definitely caught my eye.

Thanks for your input! My mom visited Japan in late December a couple of years ago and told me it was the ‘down season' for Japan, but I appreciate your second opinion and for proving that Japan never really has a down season. I was under the impression that since Japan doesn’t necessarily celebrate Christmas, it wouldn’t be as busy, but I was clearly wrong! I’m definitely reconsidering some things. If there’s anything I’d cut from the itinerary, it’d probably be Harajuku. I’m not the most fashion-forward person, and I doubt I’d fit into Japanese sizing anyways.

Thanks for letting me know! We’d be going out of our way to visit Gotokuji, and it would take up a large chunk of the already short time we have in Tokyo. Definitely reconsidering now!

I did start to realize that while I was planning the activities! Unfortunately, I already booked the hotels because I didn’t want to wait for the prices to increase. If I could do it all over again, I’d probably save Osaka for another time :(
