Hi guys, I will be traveling to Tokyo at the end of October and I have a couple of questions to ask. Basically I would like to know whether my itinerary is a bit too tight below. I have roughly planned out as such. My only concern is that I do not know which of the places I might spend too long or too short (I went Montreal some other time only to find out I can cover all those important areas in 1.5 days instead of 3, haha)
