7 day or 14 day rail pass... We aren't sure!We have a 15 day trip coming up shortly (plus two travel days). So far, it looks like this: Travel day - arrive Tokyo Now, I know that the days at Disney aren't high the travel wishes for many other, but we are big Disney fans and we can't wait! :) My main question is whether to get a 7 or 14 day pass, when you consider the first three days in Tokyo and the last four at Disney... I know you can use the rail pass somewhat in Tokyo, so I'm just not sure what the best value is. Thoughts? Any tips on the proposed itinerary are also welcome. :) |

Hi there, For a 7 and 14 day rail pass to be worthwhile you will need to spend over ¥28,300 and ¥45,100 respectively. Lets take a look at your JR travel costs:
TOTAL: ¥50320 for 7 legs As you can see, whichever type you choose (7 or 14 day) you stand to make savings with a rail pass. Looking at the breakdown of costs I can see that the majority of the costs in your travel do happen between Day 5 and Day 12. If you can squeeze your long distance travel to fit within Days 5-11, or 6-12 you would be able to use a 7 day pass and make even better savings! If you go for the 7 day pass and are arriving into Narita, you should take a look at the Narita Express/Suica Metro card deal, or the Tokyo Metro 2 day travel pass + Keisei Skyliner deals to save you money on your travel from/to the airport and around Tokyo. Hope this helps! |
