5 days, 4 nights ・ ≈609 km ・ 14h 03m driving (estimated)
Tōkaidō (53 Stations) (516 km): 14 days on foot in the Edo period, 9 by express horse — 5 days by campervan, passing all 53 post towns. Overnight stops are only michi-no-eki and RV parks we checked for 24-hour toilets and no "no overnight parking" signs. One-way trip: confirm drop-off at another branch with the rental company first.
