Hi there,
Using a 7 day JR Pass to visit Kyoto and Nagano will help you make considerable saving compared to buying normal tickets. The best way, would be to use a 7 day JR Pass from dec 26 - jan 1st. This would give you the best coverage and savings.
You can use the Shinkansen from Odawara station in Hakone to travel on the Kyoto station directly. There is basically just one Shinkansen route between Tokyo - Osaka, which is the Tokaido Shinkansen. I recommend familiarizing yourself with this route, because it makes navigating very easy. You can also use the Shinkansen from Tokyo station directly to Nagano.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
