Hi there!!! :)
My boyfriend and I are going to be in Japan from the 1st February to the 20th February.
We fly to Osaka and leave Japan from Tokyo.
We want to stay in Kyoto for 3 days and do daytrips from there (Nara and Horuji temple)
5th February- Nara to Mount Koya san?
6th- Mount Koya to Osaka
Return from Mount Koya to Osaka (2 hours) and spend the remaining day and the night in Osaka.
7th Osaka to Hiroshima
In the early morning, travel from Osaka to Hiroshima, visit the Peace Park. In the afternoon, continue on to Miyajima and overnight there. ferry
8th - Miyajima to Nagasaki
Get up early and spend the morning on Miyajima. Then continue to Nagasaki on the island of Kyushu (4.5 hours) and spend the evening and night there.
9th- Nagasaki
Spend a full day in Nagasaki.
10 th -Nagasaki to Himeji
Leave Nagasaki in the morning for Himeji (4-5 hours). Spend the afternoon exploring Himeji Castle.
11th- Himeji - Ise
Ise shrines
12th - Ise - Nagoya
13th and 14th - Nagoya to Takayama
In the morning, travel from Nagoya toTakayama (2.5 hours) and spend the afternoon and evening exploring Takayama.
Maybe we can get a car and visit Shirakawa and gokayama
15th and 16th -Takayama to Kanazawa
17th- Kanazawa - Tokyo??
Would this be feasible using the JR pass?
Also, as we are going to spend some days in Kyoto and Tokyo, should we get the 14 days JR pass or the 21 days?
Beause I've seen that we could use the JR pass to go to the airports and to use the metro in Tokyo and Osaka so it could be convenient to get the 21 days one.
What do you think?
I'm looking forward to hear from you,
Thanks so much in advance!!
Amanda :)
