Shikoku Budget Travel Guide

Matthew Baxter

Ok, so we will admit that Shikoku was the last prefecture we went to, but it did come with a few surprises. Shikoku is a good area to consider if you don’t like crowds or if you want to get away from more ‘modern’ Japan. The Japanese call Shikoku the backwaters of Japan for a reason!

Accommodation

Shikoku is not as full of hostels and hotels as elsewhere, so try to book early. See pages above for recommendations in each city or check prices at Booking.com.
