Hello, we are 2 families which intend to travel on 28/9 from Tokyo to Kanazawa (by Kagayaki shinkansen), on 30/9 to Kyoto, on 1/10 to Nara and Fushimi-Inari and back to Kyoto, on 3/10 to Osaka and back to Kyoto, on 5/10 to Hiroshima, on 6/10 to Miyajima Island and back to Hiroshima and on 9/10 to Tokyo by shinkansen.
We would appreciate your assistance in recommending to us which pass should we buy:
1. the JR Pass for 14 days, assuming that all the above places and stations are covered by the pass
2. the Hokuriku Arch Pass for 7 days and just buy train and ferry tickets for the rest for our travel as from 5/10 onwards.
We also consider shortening our travel and travel back from Kyoto to Tokyo on the night of 4/10 (since it is included in the 7-days pass). In that case, which pass should we get - the Hokuriku Arch Pass or JR Pass for 7 days (we are 5 adults, 1 child aged 10 and 1 child aged 5).
Thanking you in advance for your assistance.
