Components

  • 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 their Favorable Condition Tokens on their player board. Finally, each player simultaneously chooses one of the City cards and places 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.)

New Icons

Three new icons are added to this expansion:

  • [two left-pointing arrows, then a purple day tile] The previous 2 days
  • [purple day tile, then two right-pointing arrows] The next 2 days
  • [left arrow, purple day tile, right arrow] The day before and the day after

Example

Kanazawa is a Near Kyoto City card. After all other scoring is complete, Kenroken scores 3 points for each [pink flower icon] on the top of each Activity card in the previous 2 days. All [pink flower icon] gained through wild tokens or "Highlight of the Day" bonuses do not count.

If the player chose Higashi Chaya District, they would instead immediately move up their [dark green round icon] and their [light blue globe icon] on the Experience track 2 spaces each.

Solo Mode

If playing the solo mode, place the unselected city on the Travel Agent's Wednesday. During scoring the travel agent receives points equal to the number of spaces their highest Experience token has moved.

Transcription notes: the printed text "Experiece" in the Example is corrected to "Experience", and "imediately" to "immediately". The Example's card name Kanazawa is taken from the card art shown on the sheet. The "NEAR TOKYO" and "NEAR KYOTO" tags are printed as coloured labels, transcribed in brackets.
