Hi,
We're going to Kansai during this coming Feb 2015 and I wondering which pass is the best suit for our itinerary. I recently saw JR Takayama Hokuriku Pass and may I know how long does it take to travel from Shin Osaka to Kanazawa, next take the bus from Kanazawa to Takayama? And also, besides JR Hokuriku Pass, which pass is the best for us to explore Kansai Area?
Day 1 Arrive at Kansai Int Airport > Staying in Shin Osaka
Day 2 Travelling from Shin Osaka to Takayama > going to Shirakawa-go > back to Takayama
Day 3 From Takayama > Shin- Hotaka > back to Takayama
Day 4 From Takayama > Back to Kyoto
Day 5 Kyoto > Osaka
Day 6 Osaka
Day 7 Osaka > Kobe > Osaka
Day 8 Osaka to Kansai Int Airport
