Hi Lynn,

You’re so lucky to catch the cherry blossom trees blooming! It must have been quite a sight.

Hi Joyce, here’s our post on traveling with kids in Japan – https://www.justonecookbook.com/traveling-with-kids-in-japan/

Most Tokyo restaurants are used to visitors with kids. I would be mindful if the restaurant is tiny and you may need to bring a stroller that could obstruct the walkways.

Hi Jun,
Is there a particular reason to visit Chiba and Narita? There is some sightseeing in Boso Peninsula. For temple, we would recommend Chiba Shrine (Myōken Hongū).
Chiba and Narita areas are not well known for sightseeing.

We just returned from Japan. Unexpectedly, we found out that the cherry blossom trees were blooming in Shinjuku Goen Park. The ticket agent kindly circled the areas on a map and we headed off. Not all the trees were blooming yet but enough to satisfy us. Just beautiful.

Thank you for this very thorough information! Do you have any tips traveling with young children in Tokyo? Are most touristy places and small restaurants suitable and welcoming for kids? Thanks!

Hi! Any recommendations for Narita and Chiba prefecture, please? As in food, parks and temples in November. Thanks.

Hi Susan,

Bunny Island (4519-4 Innoshima Takuma-cho, Onomichi-shi, Hiroshima 722-2324, Japan) is 5.5 hrs train ride from Tokyo Station. We would recommend you to take the shinkansen to Hiroshima, tour the city, and make a side trip Bunny Island after since it’s close by.
