Route 01 · momiji season
Tokyo → Hiroshima
Japan, without the 47 browser tabs.
My complete autumn route, Tokyo to Hiroshima. Every stop tested in person, timed for peak momiji.
It's a plan, not a bus.
The exact route I follow myself — every call already made.
A day-by-day route
Sequenced so it flows. No zig-zagging, no mornings lost planning.
Where to eat
The bowls worth queuing for, and the spots locals actually go.
Where to sleep
Which neighbourhood to base in, and the exact hotels I'd book.
How to get around
Train, bus, or car for every leg — and when the splurge is worth it.
Hi, I'm Anna. I plan Japan trips the way some people plan heists: obsessively, with far too many maps. This route is years of that, ready to follow.
Tokyo to Hiroshima, the scenic way.
Ten stops, about three weeks, timed for the autumn leaves. Tap a spot to see what I'd do there.

So what is this, exactly? +
A self-guided itinerary — a day-by-day plan you follow at your own pace. What to see, where to eat, where to stay, and how to get between it all, put together from my own trips.
Could I not just plan this myself? +
Sure, and honestly, that's half the fun for some people. This is just that same route, already walked and worked out over a few autumns, in case you'd rather spend your planning time somewhere else.
Do you book my hotels and tickets? +
No — you book your own flights, hotels, trains, and rental car. I just recommend what to book and where. Keeps things flexible, and yours to change if you want.
How much does it cost? +
$129.99 once it's public. If you're on the early list, it's $69.99 — my thank-you for backing it before it existed.
When does it launch? +
September 1. Join the list and you'll get it for $69.99 before it goes public, plus a note the day it's live.
What format is it? +
A digital guide, made to work on your phone while you're there and your laptop while you're planning. I'll share more details with the list before launch.
