Hi there! Lets take a look at the costs of your trip:
TOTAL: ¥28,630 for 4 legs This means that you will make a slight saving off your basic initial itinerary over individual tickets (¥330). Even though the savings are slight, the Rail Pass is a much more convenient way to travel and, you will also gain a lot of flexiblity (for inspiration, see our top day trips from Tokyo). I recommend the rail pass given the similarity in price.
For Crab - I can really recommend you take a look at Kani Do-raku in Osaka. The model of the crab on the shop is unmissable! Here are some reviews on TripAdvisor.
From Shinjuku the total journey time including waiting for a connection at Otsuki is around 2 hours. From Otsuki you will need to use the non-JR Fujikyu line which will cost around ¥1350 each way. If you are in Tokyo, then Shinjuku departure is the best. You can learn more about FujiQ at the official site and how to get there. Hope this helps! |
