Hi all!
I will be travelling in Japan from June 2nd to 12th (will be staying in Tokyo from 2nd to 8th) and is planning going from Tokyo->Kyoto on the 8th, travel within Kyoto on the 8th, Kyoto->Osaka on the 9th, travel within Osaka from 9th-12th and leave Osaka in the morning to return to Narita AIrport (unfortunately my airplane ticket is for Narita Airport).
My questions:
1. Is the above itinerary worth purchasing a 7 day JR rail pass for the last 7 days of my trip (so I can use it on Shinkansen trains in the country)?
2. Can I use the JR rail pass for N'EX when I return to Tokyo?
3. Will there be any changes that affects my itinerary in terms of what pass to buy after the changes made on March 14th in the JR lines? Will the price change?
Thanks so much!
