Kyoto, Nara, and since you'll be there in the winter hit the slopes up north. I use the Lonely Planet Guide books when I travel and they have suited me well. It depends on your budget as to the guide book, but CM's advise on advanced research is especially good. The trains in Japan are some of the finest in the world. I would absolutely recommend that you have a place to sleep lined up for your first night there because Narita airport is so far from Tokyo that you'll be exhausted when you get to town.
