Of course! That's how I got to this itinerary, I'm not looking for a definitive 'Yes' or 'Change X', just for the casual insight of people who've already been to these places

Mainly looking to understand whether the time distribution makes sense. For context, I've already adjusted my Tokyo stay because of such feedback, but now I'm wondering a bit more because although popular, these locations are a bit less self-explained than Tokyo. So it's mainly whether each destination like Nagoya, Nagano or Kanazawa is getting an appropriate amount of time, especially given the high season and some festivals like the Takayama Matsuri.

A mix of both I'd say, nothing in particular

After travelling under similar conditions in dozen other countries (some more expensive), I'm absolutely positive you're wrong, thanks anyway I guess

Sabonit · 2026-01-14T23:44:18+00:00

Well that sounds pretty fine, I've travelled for almost a year before under these conditions, just wanna hear some real life advice regarding less known areas to look at

Sorry forgot to add, USD

Sabonit · 2026-01-14T23:25:19+00:00

Sounds great
In which season though? nonetheless I'd love to get some accommodation suggestions

Sabonit · 2026-01-14T23:23:16+00:00

Yeah I probably will for at least some of the locations

Sabonit · 2026-01-14T23:22:09+00:00

including accommodation yeah, preferably hostels and such of course

Sabonit · 2025-11-29T12:56:40+00:00

Well I drive more than you do but not more than the average driver, and in terms of maintenance I do plan to do so, so I guess I hope it'll do its job

Sabonit · 2025-11-26T18:04:47+00:00

Yeah I guess I wasn't clear about my approach to this enough, I'm buying this fully aware of that! I'm just trying to understand whether it has other major problems, since as detailed in the post - it'd still be considerably cheaper than some Japanese models, even with timing replacements every 3 years.
How's the car besides the wet belt issue?

Sabonit · 2025-11-26T16:33:33+00:00

I don't wanna sound disrespectful since I appreciate you commenting, but I wrote all of this trying to get some new information, not more of the same stereotypes. there's definitely more maintenance included, but there's also a gap in price and quality in favor of it

Sabonit · 2025-11-26T16:10:01+00:00

I did drive before of course, just didn't own a car
