Hi,

Sorry my rough itenary is as follows:

3rd Jan - Arrive Tokyo
4th Jan - Tokyo
5th Jan - Kyoto
6th Jan - Kyoto
7th Jan - Kyoto
8th Jan - Himeji
9th Jan - Hiroshima?
10th Jan - Hiroshima?
11th Jan- Osaka
12th Jan - Osaka
13th Jan - Osaka
14th Jan - Sapporo
15th Jan - Sapporo
16th Jan - Tokyo
17th Jan -Tokyo
18th Jan - Tokyo
19th Jan - Tokyo
20th Jan - Back to HKG

As you can see I like the modern japan, i.e. spend a bit of time in osaka and tokyo.

Can anyone suggest the transport method for the above route or if you can minimize or maximise the amount of days I should spend? I would like to spend around 5 nights in tokyo if possible... Also I don't like to rush things unless I have no choice.

Another option is to go to sapporo at the beginning of the itenary, but I will leave that to the experts

Cheers,
Kenn.

Reading your post, I get the impression that you're planning to be travelling in and out of NRT a bit more than I would prefer. But to be honest, I'm a little confused about the options you're considering.

Worth noting that there are domestic flights from many airports - Your options for domestic connections are not just KIX / NRT / CTS.
