17-Dec Transfer from Tokyo Disney Resort to Osaka, then to Kobe in the evening (leaving Tokyo at 9.30am)
18-Dec Osaka - Universal Studio
19-Dec Osaka - Ikeda/Namba/Dotonburi
20-Dec Osaka - Ogimachi (morning) and Nara in the afternoon
21-Dec Transfer from Osaka to Tokyo, Ginza (leaving Osaka at 10am)
22-Dec Tokyo - Odaiba
23-Dec Tokyo - Harajuku & Shibuya
24-Dec Transfer from Tokyo, Ginza to Haneda Airport (leaving Ginza at noon)

Thanks.

Warmest Regards

Hi Annie,

A 7 day JR pass would work very well for you. The pass is about the same price as a normal return ticket Tokyo - Osaka using the Shinkansen, now you get 7 days of unlimited travel for the same price. Use it for travel Disneyland, Kobe and the airport and it's easy to make savings.

Seat reservations are not required, however it does make travel a lot more convenient and it is always nice to be secured of seating together.

Hope this helps and enjoy Japan!

Hope this helps ;)
