Hi, my friend and I (60 year olds) are travelling to Japan late September for 15 nights. I have worked up this itinerary but would love any input. I have travelled to Kyoto many times for business which is why it isn't included. Im really keen to hear if there are other ideas. Thanks for your help.

check out Miyajima while in Hiroshima.

In Takayama, visit Shirakawa-go for half-day via Nohi express bus.

From Hakone, there are less Hikari Shinkansen trains serving b/w Odawara and Nagoya. Ascertain train schedule and buy train tickets after arriving in Japan.
