JR Pass worth it?

Hi there,

If you want to add to your itinerary, you could include Nagano at the start of your trip on the way to Kanazawa, and also consider day trips out of Tokyo to Fuji, Hakone, or Nikko, or consider more trips in the Kansai area such as Nara and Kobe. I think if you want to add Kagoshima or Kochi then it's completely up to your preferences but they are definitely lovely places to visit. My suggestion would be to use our JR Fare Calculator when you have fully fleshed out your itinerary as there is a chance that for at least part of your trip the JR Pass may be a cost-effective option for you.

Kind regards,

Alexis
