Favorable Condition Tokens on their player board.
Finally, each player simultaneously chooses one of
the City cards and places it on the day with the Day Trip
Favorable Condition Token. Remove the other City
cards from the game.
rules
No additional cards may be placed on the day with the
day trip card. At any point during the game, before final
scoring, players may move Sunday to the opposite side
of their board, after Saturday. When moving Sunday,
take all cards beneath it and the favorable condition
token with it.
Day Trip cards have the tag Near Tokyo or Near Kyoto
listed on the card. You do not need a train token
traveling From Kyoto to a Near Kyoto City or from a
Near Kyoto City to a Kyoto card. The same is true for
Tokyo and Near Tokyo cards.
City cards allow players to score additional points or
rewards based on the abilities listed. During the Final
Round, when players go on their trips and score, when
they reach their City card, they will take their Location
token and place it next to one of the two options on
the card. If the selected choice gives icons or tokens,
players will resolve it immediately. Otherwise, they
will score the card after scoring all other days in their
itinerary. City cards have an option to score based on
icons on the top nearby Activity cards (See next page.)

It’s difficult to see all the cities you want to go to in
a single trip. Sometimes taking a day trip can be an
amazing way to see a nearby city without complicating
your itinerary. Let’s Go! To Japan: Day Trip allows
players to visit one of 11 other cities in Japan. Will you
eat amazing street food in Osaka, visit the Castle ruins
of Fukuoka, or will you feed the bowing deer of Nara?
Let’s Go! To Japan: Day Trip expansion allows for even
more strategic decisions and expands the game to a
seventh day.
CONTENTS: 12 City cards, 5 Sunday Board Extensions, 5
Day Trip Favorable Condition tokens, 5 Location tokens.
setup
Setup for the game remains the same with these
exceptions:
In step 1, also give each player a matching Sunday
Board Extension and Day Trip Favorable condition
token. Each player places the Sunday Board Extension
to the left of Monday, next to their board.
During step 4, use all seven favorable condition tokens,
placing one on each day, including Sunday.
After all setup is complete (including the Grab Your
Passport Expansion setup if being used), shuffle the
10 City cards and deal 2 out to each player. At this time,
each player may swap the two of them
