Hi,
I'm going to Japan for the first time in June. Here is my planned itinerary, can you please tell me if I should buy a 7 day pass or single tickets? Any suggestion to the itinerary is welcome as well.
Day1-2 Tokyo
Day3 Mt Fuji
Day4 Mt Fuji - Takayama
Day5 Takayama
Day6 Takayama - Kamikochi
Day 7 kamikochi - Kyoto
Day 8-10 Kyoto
Day 11 Kyoto - Kansai airport (happy to stay the previous night close to the airport if it makes sense, I have my plane at 12:30pm)
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
A Pass would not pay off without expanding your itinerary a bit. But you could easily take a day trip to Himeji for example to see Japan's finest castle. Spending at least half a day in Nara is also well worth it. Also regarding Kamikochi there is no real access except by bus.
