For most of my life, I'd dreamed of visiting Japan. Since childhood, watching hours and hours of anime, I'd absorbed a part of Japanese culture, and without realizing it, I was generating in myself that need to experience it in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">But I'm not just a fan of <strong>Anime<\/strong>, I also have a great admiration for the <strong>culture and history<\/strong> of Japan. The <strong>samurais<\/strong>, the <strong>geishas<\/strong>, the <strong>ninjas<\/strong>, the <strong>lifestyle<\/strong>, the <strong>food<\/strong>, all of which fueled my curiosity to one day visit and travel to the land of the rising sun.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1067\"

There are no direct flights, and the necessary stopovers make the journey long and tiring. Added to this is the high cost of the ticket, which makes it a destination as distant as it is desirable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, since I had to make that effort, I would at least go with enough time to make the most of my stay, and why not, since it's so close, include a few days in South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I bought a roundtrip ticket from Buenos Aires to Tokyo with Aerom\u00e9xico, with a very long layover, almost 20 hours, in Mexico City. Being a restless person, I took advantage of that time to get out of the airport and explore the city (I hope to write about that layover in the future).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once I arrived in Japan, I began the one-month countdown to explore the cities that most appealed to me on this first adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading translation-block\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_get_around_in_Japan_and_South_Korea\"><\/span><strong>How to get around in Japan and South Korea?<\/strong> <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">To travel within both countries, I used a mix of buses and trains, depending on the cost-time ratio of each trip. For example, between the Japanese cities of Matsumoto, Takayama, Kanazawa, and Kyoto, I traveled by bus, as it was cheaper. But from Kyoto to Fukuoka and the Mount Fuji area, I used the Shinkansen (high-speed train) using the 7-day JR Pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading translation-block\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_worth_buying_the_JR_Pass\"><\/span><strong>Is<\/strong> it worth buying the JR Pass?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It depends on how you plan to use it. If you buy the pass and spend most of your time in one city, it's not worth it. I wouldn't use it in Tokyo, as there are subway lines that the JR Pass doesn't cover, and you'll still have to spend the same amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I bought the 1-week JR Pass when I had to travel from Osaka to Fukuoka, since in that part of the itinerary, I would visit several cities in a very short time and travel long distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">There are passes for 7, 14 and 21 days. To purchase the JR PASS, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/japanrailpass.net\/en\/purchase\/\" target=\"_self\">visit the official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Guarda_este_post_en_Pinterest\"><\/span>Save this post on Pinterest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/en\/itinerario-de-viaje-a-japon-y-corea-del-sur\/&amp;media=https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Complete-Japan-South-Korea-Route-Tokyo-to-Seoul-Travel-Itinerary.jpg&amp;description=Complete Japan &amp; South Korea Route - Tokyo to Seoul Travel Itinerary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Complete-Japan-South-Korea-Route-Tokyo-to-Seoul-Travel-Itinerary-267x400.jpg\" alt=\"Complete Japan &amp; South Korea Route - Tokyo to Seoul Travel Itinerary\" class=\"wp-image-43621\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Complete-Japan-South-Korea-Route-Tokyo-to-Seoul-Travel-Itinerary-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Complete-Japan-South-Korea-Route-Tokyo-to-Seoul-Travel-Itinerary-533x800.jpg 533w, https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Complete-Japan-South-Korea-Route-Tokyo-to-Seoul-Travel-Itinerary.jpg 736w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter has-text-color has-black-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-black-background-color has-background is-style-dots margin-separator-custom\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1199\" height=\"92\" src=\"https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/banner-divisorio-japon.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13558\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/banner-divisorio-japon.jpg 1199w, https:\/\/elprismadefer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/banner-divisorio-japon-600x46.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1199px) 100vw, 1199px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator aligncenter has-text-color has-black-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-black-background-color has-background is-style-dots margin-separator-custom\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerario_de_viaje_a_Japon_y_Corea_del_Sur\"><\/span>Travel itinerary to Japan and South Korea<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Travel itinerary to Japan and South Korea\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=16t6Ush8PKdZ28GKojaUu0B4LzgKpiME&#038;ehbc=2E312F&#038;noprof=1\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>The entire trip lasted 40 days between both countries, with about a month in Japan and only 10 days in South Korea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For practical reasons, I'm going to divide the itinerary into three parts.

id=\"Itinerarios_alternativos_a_Japon\"><\/span>Alternative routes in Japan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">I know not everyone has a month to visit Japan. Some will have a week, others two or three weeks. Based on my personal experience, and leaving aside the northern destinations in Japan, which I haven't had the chance to visit yet (like Hokkaido and Sapporo), I'm going to detail three alternative itineraries, taking into account the number of days I would spend in each city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerario_de_viaje_a_Japon_para_1_semana\"><\/span>1-week Japan travel itinerary <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I think a week is too short a time to visit this country, which, while not that big, has a lot of history and fascinating places to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if that's all the time we have, I'd focus on the two cities I liked the most, Tokyo and Kyoto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two are very different: one is more modern and geeky, the other is traditional and cultural. They have so many attractions to visit that even a week wouldn't be enough for each one. But if that's all the time we have, I'd stay four days in Tokyo and three days in Kyoto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerario_sugerido_para_una_semana_a_Japon\"><\/span>Suggested one-week itinerary to Japan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Tokyo:<\/strong> 4 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Kyoto<\/strong>: 3 days<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerario_de_viaje_a_Japon_para_2_semanas\"><\/span>2-Week Japan Travel Itinerary <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With two weeks, we can expand our itinerary a bit further. I'd still spend a week between Tokyo and Kyoto, and divide the second week between exploring Osaka and part of the Japanese Alps, with cities like Takayama, Kanazawa, and the village of Shirakawago, located between the two. And why not visit the Black Castle in Matsumoto, since it's on the way?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Itinerario_sugerido_para_2_semanas_en_Japon_con_Alpes_Japoneses\"><\/span>1.

For the remaining days, I would add Kobe, a port city with a beautiful coastal area for walking, ideal for a day trip from Osaka, and one of the cities near Mount Fuji. Hakone with its onsen, Kawaguchiko with its famous pagoda viewpoint and Mount Fuji in the background, or Fujikawaguchiko, the base city for climbing the mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Itinerario_sugerido_para_Japon_de_2_semanas_con_Monte_Fuji\"><\/span>2.

Tokyo and Kyoto are undisputed. Osaka too. I'd add Miyajima Island with the large floating Torii and Hiroshima, which is on the way, some of the cities near Mount Fuji, part of the Japanese Alps, and we can add a smaller city with a castle to see, like Matsumoto, which is on the way to Takayama, or Himeji, which is on the way to Hiroshima.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Itinerario_sugerido_para_Japon_de_3_semanas\"><\/span>Suggested 3-week Japan itinerary:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Tokyo:<\/strong> 4 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Takayama and Shirakawago Historical Village:<\/strong> 3 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Kyoto<\/strong>: 3 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Osaka:<\/strong> 2 or 3 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Hiroshima and isla Miyajima:<\/strong> 2 o 3 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Hakone or a city near Mount Fuji (such as Kawaguchiko): <\/strong>2 or 3 days<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"translation-block\"><strong>Matsumoto or Himeji:<\/strong> 1 day each<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Consideraciones_finales\"><\/span>Final considerations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Needless to say, these Japan itinerary suggestions are just that: ideas and advice based on my experience in Japan.

This allows them to explore various regions of Japan and then visit the main Korean destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFCual_es_la_mejor_epoca_para_viajar_a_Japon_y_Corea_del_Sur\"><\/span>What is the best time to travel to Japan and South Korea?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best times to visit Japan and South Korea are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). In spring you can see the cherry blossoms, while in autumn the landscapes are ablaze with color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFEs_necesario_comprar_el_Japan_Rail_Pass_para_este_tipo_de_viaje\"><\/span>Is it necessary to buy the Japan Rail Pass for this type of trip?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It depends on the itinerary. If you plan to take several long train journeys in Japan, the Japan Rail Pass can be convenient. However, since the price increase in 2023, it's no longer always worthwhile for some itineraries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFSe_necesita_visa_para_visitar_Japon_y_Corea_del_Sur\"><\/span>Do I need a visa to visit Japan and South Korea?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many travelers from Europe and Latin America can enter Japan and South Korea without a visa for short tourist stays, although it is always advisable to check the requirements according to nationality before traveling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFEs_facil_moverse_en_transporte_publico\"><\/span>Is it easy to get around by public transport?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, both Japan and South Korea have some of the most efficient public transportation systems in the world.
