Hi,
I am travelling with some friends to japan in July. Our itinerary is like this:
3 July - 7 July (5 days) in Tokyo
8 July - 9 July (2 days) in Takayama
10 July - 11 July (2 days) in Hiroshima/Miyajima
12 July - 17 July (5 days) in Kyoto
We are staying in the Kuramae area in Tokyo.
We are unsure whether it would be a good idea to get the 7 day JR pass and use it from 8 July onwards when we go to takayama because we can use a suica card in Tokyo where we will be able to use tokyo metro lines as well. Also my friend was telling me that transport in Kyoto is mainly buses so the JR pass isn't really used there.
Or would it be a better idea to get the 14 day JR pass?
Please help :)
