My husband and I are traveling May 1 to May 18 as follows:
(Narita to Shibuya, Tokyo, by airport limousine bus) Day 1
Tokyo & Yokohama Days 1-6
Tokyo to Kyoto Day 7
Kyoto to Nara Day 10
Nara to Kyoto Day 11
Kyoto to Kanazawa to Takayama Day 13
Takayama to Kamikochi Day 15
Kamikochi to Shin-Yokohama Day 17
(Shin-Yokohama to Narita by bus, Day 18)
I would greatly appreciate your advice.
Thanks, Susanj
Hi there,
Here is a little break down of ticket prices, in order to see if a JR-Pass would benefit you.
Tokyo --> Kyoto ¥ 13,220
Kyoto --> Nara ¥ 690
Nara --> Kyoto ¥ 690
Kyoto --> Kanazawa ¥ 6,710
Kanazawa --> Takayama, this makes for a very long trip and is better done by high way bus.
Kanazawa --> Kamikochi, this part is done by Nohi Bus from Kanazawa and not covered by the JR-Pass.
Kamikochi --> Shin Yokohama, the fastest way to Shin-Yokohama is if you take the bus and the Matsumoto Electric Railway to Matsumoto (2400yen, not covered by the JR-Pass) and from there take the JR to Shin-Yokohama ¥ 6,500.
This comes down to a total of 27,810 which does not cover the cost of the 14-day pass. I think the best way to go is buying single tickets as you go.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
