Shikoku is easily the least-known of the main islands of Japan but that is precisely the allure - authentic Japanese culture, freedom to roam at your own speed, get away hoards of tourists, and beautifully raw experiences at every level.

When planning this trip, I quickly realized that there isn't a lot of information out there in terms of how to plan a road trip in Shikoku. With this Shikoku itinerary, you'll get a proper look not only the logistics side of things but also what makes the region special, unique activities, and how it is secretly one of the go-to places if you want to see the real Japan.

If you are looking to go off-the-beaten-path, 12 days in Shikoku will blow you away.
