Next day, board the Cruiseship.
1) Is it worth getting 7 day JR Pass?
2) Which JR pass we need for our trip?
2) Can we use JR Pass from Narita Airport to Yotsuya Station?
3) Is it JR same as Narita Experss (N'EX)?
4) If I get 7 day JR Pass, Should I get round trip JR Pass from Tokyo to Tokyo and purchase one way ticket from Tokyo Station to Yokohama?
4) Traveling Tokyo to Kyoto to Yokohama. Since JR Pass does not include Nozomi Shinkansen. Do I need to take Hikari Shinkansen? How long is the travel time between Tokyo to Kyoto and to Yokohama?
5) When I validate the JR Pass on first day (October 8th) in the morning at the Narita Airport, can I use the JR Pass on anytime last day (October 14th)?
I'm so confused about JR Pass, Please help me.
