Day 4: The National Museum of Art, Osaka → Hotel Granvia Osaka → Osaka Children's Museum Day 5: Fuji View Hotel 📍: Depart from the hotel, walk to Shinsaibashi Station (Midosuji Line - Esaka direction), go to Shin-Osaka Station, transfer to the Shinkansen: Shin-Osaka - Mishima (3-4 hours in total), after getting off the train, exit from South Exit 2, take the bus to Fuji-Q Highland (book the bus online in advance). Day 6: Mt. Fuji Panoramic Ropeway → Hotel Gracery Shinjuku 📍: Book a Mt. Fuji day tour, with hotel pick-up and drop-off, JPY 2,800 per car, 8 hours of car use. Day 7: Shinjuku → Narita International Airport 📍: Book a car to the airport, store luggage at the hotel, and leave the hotel before 5:00 pm! 🌴 Must-see attractions: Universal Studios Japan: Full of ceremony, fun for both adults and children. Shinsaibashi: I love it here. Eat and shop to your heart's content. 🛍️ Nara Park: Very photogenic. Osaka Children's Museum: Free for children under 3, adults need to buy tickets, it's really worth going! You can play all day! Lake Kawaguchi: Every photo is a masterpiece! 📍 Notes: 1. A stroller is a must for family trips! 2. Buy train tickets on-site, online tickets seem to be a bit more expensive. 3. Universal Studios Japan: If you don't go during the weekend peak season, you can just draw a ticket. Get tickets on your phone early in the morning, you can basically make a reservation!
