Hello!
My husband and I are going to spend 2 weeks in Japan this october. This is the plan of our journey :
Tokyo 11-13.10.2015 - 2 nights
Jokohama (13-14.10)
Kamakura (14-15.10)
Kioto (15-18.10) - 3 nights
Nara (18-19.10)
Osaka (19-20.10)
Hiroshima (20-21.10)
Nikko (21-22.10)
Tokyo 22-24.10.2015 - 2 nights

We're going to stay in Tokyo for the first 2 and the last 2 days of our vacations. In the middle we want to visit some of the Japanese cities. While we're in Tokyo, we would probably like to move by Metro.
Our plan includes buying JP Rail Pass from 15-21 October. It would be activated and valid first from Kamakura on 15 October and ending in Nikko on 21 October. Will we be able to activate JRP in Kamakura station?
We wonder, if we should buy 7- or 14-days Japan Rail Pass. Is it better (and cheaper) to buy the 7-days JRP and buy separate tickets for the other connections and all-day tickets for Tokyo metro, as we planned to do, or should we buy 14-day JRP?
Yours sincirely, Agnieszka
