What type of pass do you recommend for traveling within the city of Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka?
Will a national JR Pass pay off - if yes, when should I activate it?
will the jrpass cover all the intercity travel, local travel within Kyoto Osaka hakone Tokyo (underground bus etc).
how much extra will we have to pay extra we need to pay .
please advice how do we do about should we take a 14 day pass or a 7 day pass(19 to 25 march) and there after normal
and also will it be a busy time so shall I opt for a green pass as I am travelling with a six year old child
thanks in advance
