  • I’ve been to Japan 9 times and I loved going there in November-December the most. The last time I was there was in January-February 2023 for six weeks. It was cold, but great weather for onsens.

    • If you are staying at some of the small ryokans around instead of the big hotels and the lady's who run them find out it's your honeymoon, they might do a little something for you. Way back when my husband and I went for our honeymoon and some did tea ceremony, mini photo album and a kimono patchwork small purse. They were the nicest ladies and love chatting. Some even told us of good places to visit and the times to do so.

  • Definitely going to save this video for future reference. As I said before in a previous video, I went to Japan in the beginning of August and was close by when summer vacations started. What a sweltering experience! I had to drink plenty of big water bottles from connivence stores. Thankfully, it was an experience to never visit again during that time. I’m still aiming for the autumn season on November this year for a more pleasant weather experience! Thanks for the advice again, Toshi! 👍🙇

  • A valuable set of tips. Well organized and with helpful tips if one's schedule makes it impossible to avoid busy or weather-unfriendly periods. For fans of Grand Sumo, it is noteworthy that the three Tokyo tournaments occur during auspicious times to visit Japan. While cold, January is one of the sunniest periods in Tokyo making the cold less chilling than in cloudy places (like my home town, Cleveland, OH).

  • I’ve been living in the north eastern U.S for over 50 years and I’ve gone back to Japan every now and then. I definitely avoid the summer especially after the rainy season is over. With excruciating heat and humidity, I suffered from a heat stroke in one of my visits. I was born and grew up in Tokyo until 1970, so you may think I was well aware of the summer heat. However, after residing in a colder climate for most of my life and especially with the global warming, the heat was incredible! For me, the best time to visit Japan is late October and early November.

  • With Golden Week just remember if you are in Tokyo only then it can actually be a good time to visit. Because everyone leaves Tokyo. The only down side is that smaller businesses are closed. The hotels are usually cheaper in Golden Week in Tokyo business districts. Just avoid the week after Golden week as stated here as everyone comes back!!!

One more thing to add, Japan’s country side is really beautiful, and it is very convenient to rent a car from nearby any major train station to explore the less crowded places. Use google translate to help communicate with the locals who may not be comfortable at speaking English.

  • Cherry blossom festival at the end of March is very crowded, but it's absolutely beautiful. There are also lots of special products for this festival as well. Lots of great souvenirs. Rain won't affect how much you enjoy visiting japan. It's not like it will ruin your day at the beach or long hike. August is hot and humid, but there are special summer festivals that include fireworks. No bad time to visit. Just be prepared for crowds and roll with it. Enjoy!

I spent several hours outside queuing to get into Comiket at Big Sight at the end of August that year with no problems. When I left at the beginning of September a typhoon was just coming into the Tokyo area.
