anyone here been to Tokyo disneyland and Disney sea?

Is the Q really that bad? Should I be staying nearby hotels to avoid the morning crowd? 2 days enough?

if you are planning to go to both disneyland and disneysea for two days, you may want to stay one night to avoid transporting from the city for both days.

the queues are equally crazy as other disneylands but i think it was bearable. FASTPASS is a must to skip crazy long queues!!!

hi sensei,

Been reading this forum for months. Didn't do homework before booking air ticket. Consequences, no red leaves  cry.gif
Here's my draft itinerary for Oct. I'm not good in direction. Can have a look and advise? wink.gif

Day 1: Arrived KIX 11pm (overnight in airport and wait for next day 6:30am train) - Haruka 2-way pass
Day 2: Kyoto (Sagano Scenic Train to Arashiyama) - Is it possible we able to catch Sagano train 9am ?  hmm.gif
Day 3: Kyoto (reserve if can't make Arashiyama on Day 2)
Day 4: Kyoto (Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari, Kinkakuji, Nijo Castle, Kyoto Tower)
Day 5: Kyoto -> Osaka (Heian Shrine, Ginkaku-ji -> Osaka Castle, Kuromon, Tsutenkaku)
Is it better if from Kyoto go to Kobe for day trip and check-in Osaka at night? The concern we have is not pleasant to pull luggage whole day tongue.gif
Day 6: Osaka -> Kobe day trip
Arima Onsen / Kin no Yu : we are on budget. Kin no Yu seems to be "popular to tourist" and cheap. Tocen Goshobo looks good but expensive ¥1650. Is there any other good onsen can recommend which local used to visit? Open air onsen?  wub.gif
Possible to slot in spot for Kobe beef (Kitano Ijinkan) after onsen? Any tips?  icon_question.gif
Day 7: Osaka -> Nara day trip (Kintetsu Nara -> Kofukuji->Nara Park -> Todai-ji -> Dontoburi/Shinsaibashi)
Day 8: Stroll around Osaka (shopping!!!) -> Airport (Shopping again!!! Friend is shopaholic  whistling.gif )  Flight 11pm (Haruka pass)
22.Oct is Jidai Matsuri@Kyoto. Will it be too rush if were to travel from Osaka to Kyoto and back to Osaka again? Because we have booked our hostel in Osaka. Knew about this before booking, but overlooked when my friend did the booking...  ohmy.gif 

Many thanks  arigato nod.gif

hi. Day 4 too packed already. i personally don't think you can fit 5 attractions in one day. the most i managed when i was in Kyoto was 2 attractions per day. unless you are planning to rush through everything. bear in mind that some attractions close at 5pm.
