Plan Ahead, Enjoy Japan

About Japan Booking Planner Widget

The Japan Booking Planner Widget by Solo Travel POV helps you plan ahead for the experiences you’re most excited about. Whether that means the Ghibli Museum, a Pokémon Cafe reservation, a visit to Nintendo Museum or an evening at Shibuya Sky, a little preparation can make room for the moments you don’t want to miss.

Japan’s attractions don’t all follow the same booking schedule. Some release tickets in monthly batches, others use advance applications or open reservations closer to your visit. Popular dates and time slots can fill up, especially when you have a specific day in mind. Keeping track of those different windows is easier when you can see them together.

This free Japan booking planner brings your trip dates, planned visits and booking reminders into one calendar. It shows timed booking actions in Tokyo time and your local time, helping you work out when to be ready—even when the release happens on a different date where you live.

1. Choose Your Must-DosBrowse Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and other destinations, then select the places you want to include.

2. Set Your Visit DatesAdd your arrival and departure dates, then choose when you’d like to visit each attraction.

3. Keep Your Plan HandySee your booking dates together. Copy or share your plan, or export upcoming reminders for Google Calendar or Outlook.
