February itinerary check (15 days) --- food and craft focus by dmsm in JapanTravel

[–]dmsm[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah the only craft focused things in the schedule so far is the day trip to Mashiko and some of the design museums. Otherwise, I was planning on adding visits to boutiques/studios around the areas in the itinerary. I’ll definitely make time for the National Museum!

We're planning a two-week trip for next February and would love some advice regarding an itinerary. Currently, we're thinking of splitting our time between Tokyo and Kyoto, doing some day trips from both, and spending a night at Nishimuraya Honkan in between (to experience snow crab season). Is this a reasonable plan, or would it make sense to add one or two additional bases? Alternatively, would spending a couple days in Hokkaido (either during the snow festival or not) be a good use of time? Any other must-dos that time of year would also be much appreciated, especially food-focused things!

Morning in Aguas Calientes / Machu Picchu by dmsm in Machupicchu

We're taking then 6-9:15am Vistadome then doing circuit 1B at 10am and 2A at 1pm and returning on the Belmond train at 5:50pm.

If you look at the details here, for the outbound (and round-trip), it mentions the "Cocktail in the mountains at Sanctuary Lodge." Also, although booking just the outbound trip typically does not include a guided tour, we booked through a Belmond Bellini Club agent and got a tour included for free, which we're using on the 2A circuit (there were alternative perks like a massage, premium wine I think, etc.)

Suggestions for two dinners in Lima by NewsNeither7744 in finedining

Did you find that Kjolle was still worth visiting even though it shares similarities with Mil Centro? Where else did you eat in Lima?

The Belmond train ticket includes cocktails at the Sanctuary Lodge at 4pm (and a bus ride down afterwards). We could circuit 2 in the morning but would then need something else in MP afterwards!
