Common Mistakes to Avoid

Underestimating walking distances - Tokyo attractions look close on maps but involve significant subway transfers and walking. Budget 20,000+ steps daily and pack comfortable shoes with good arch support.

Overpacking daily schedules - Travel time between neighborhoods takes 45-90 minutes with transfers. Limit yourself to 2-3 major areas per day, not 5-6 attractions.

Skipping booking timelines - Popular restaurants (especially kaiseki) and attractions like TeamLab book out 2-3 months ahead. Create a booking calendar immediately after generating your itinerary.

Ignoring local meal times - Many restaurants close between 2-5pm and get packed 12-1pm and 7-8pm. Plan meals for 11am or 1:30pm lunch, 6pm or 8:30pm dinner.

Not checking seasonal weather - March in Tokyo is cool (8-15°C), July in Dubai is extreme heat (40°C+). Always generate itineraries with season-appropriate activities and packing lists.

Forgetting about jet lag - Don’t schedule intensive activities on arrival day. Build in rest time, especially for long-haul flights crossing 8+ time zones.

Relying only on credit cards - Even modern cities have cash-only establishments. Get local currency on arrival and keep $100-300 equivalent handy.
