Hi,

I will be travelling to Japan in June and will be there for 2 weeks, i will be going from Tokyo to Hiroshima and Kyoto during the first week before spending my last week back in Tokyo. Should i just get a one week JR Pass? or is it better to get a two week pass? (can it be used as a metro pass for my second week in Tokyo? or are there cheaper options)

Many thanks for your help!

Cheers,

Tommy

Hi Tom!

For your trip I recommend a 7 day pass and then you should purchase either metro one day travel cards or the prepaid suica or pasmo cards for use withing Tokyo. Tokyo metro also has metro card and narita train deals available which you can purchase from the the keisei skyline ticket office in narita.

Hope this helps!
