Hi!

Me and my wife are traveling to Japan this October and we were wondering if it is beneficial to purchase a JR Pass. I hope you can help us!

Our Itinerary is as follows:
Land on Narita on 21st of October
Stay in Tokyo till 30th of October but with round trips to:
Jigokudani 1 day return
Ibaraki 1 day return
Hakone 1 day
Nikko 1 day return

Arrive in Kyoto on the 30th and we stay there until the 5th of November but with roundtrips to:
Osaka 1 or 2 days return
Nara 1 day return
Himeji 1 day return
Maybe Nachi falls 1 day return

On the 5th of November we will travel to a hotel near Osaka KIX for the flight back.

I hope u can advise us in which, or any, JR pass we should buy!

Thank you in advance.

KR, Lard

Hi there,

You will be travelling a good amount and make trips on a nearly daily basis, especially the return trips can add up a lot. I think looking into using a 14-day JR Pass to do all your day trips makes the most sense, then buy any local tickets for the first couple of days in Tokyo that you may not be using the pass.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
