    I would say stay in Osaka as a base and tour Kyoto from there. The last time I was in Japan I did a day trip from Osaka to Hiroshima, and that was no problem.

    Osaka is basically a clone of Tokyo.

    Spend 3 days in Tokyo, one in Himeji, one in Nara, and the rest in Kyoto. After the temples of Kyoto close down around 5 PM, you can zip over to Osaka and on another evening, Kobe.

    I have spent time visiting both Tokyo and Osaka and I can say that Osaka / Kyoto are a lot more fun to travel around. That's just my opinion though, really depends on what you want to do and see.

    Theres really not a lot worth seeing sightseeing wise in Osaka. You are better off　using　it　as　a　base　to　visit　Kyoto　and　Nara.　　You　could　spend　a　week　in　Kyoto　and　not　see　everything.
