Hi, JRPass,

I've plan to join the Fujisan Marathon in Kawaguchiko on Sun 27 Nov 2016 9:00 am. I will arriving Japan Narita airport on 24 Nov 2016 and stay in Shinjuku. To join the Fujisan Marathon at Kawaguchiko from Shinjuku on 27Nov16, I try to find the train route from www.hyperdia.com and found the fastest route as the following:

Route 1: Take time: 128 Minutes Transfer: 0 Times Distance: 104.1 km
Total:¥ 3,910(TicketFare:¥ 2,460 Seat Fee:¥ 1,450)

Time:
05:25 - 07:33

Route:
begin SHINJUKU(JR) [ Departure track No.9 ]
[128 Min] through LTD. EXP FUJISAN MARATHON
end KAWAGUCHIKO

¥2,460. Reserved seat: ¥1,450

Could you please advise for the appropriate JR pass (I plan to buy JR Tokyo Wide Pass) for my trip to Kawaguchiko and to travel in Tokyo on 24-29 Nov included Narita Express. However please give me for more details of the "LTD. EXP FUJISAN MARATHON" especially how to reserve and buy the ticket of this train before 27Nov.

Thank you in advance

Hi there,

Is this the only trip outside of Tokyo you plan to do? In that case, I would just buy a normal rail ticket to Fuji-san. You can buy a ticket at any station (it is not possible to do so online).

Alternatively, you could use a Tokyo Wide Pass.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
