Hi there,
I think using a Kansai - Hiroshima Area Pass will be a very good match when used from day 8 to day 12. A one way Kansai - Hiroshima is a very cost-efficient option, will allow you to ride the Nozomi (fastest train) from Shin-Osaka to Hiroshima and cover travel on the local sightseeing bus in Hiroshima and ferry to Miyajima as well.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
Hi Daniel-san,
Thank you! Just for clarification, does this imply that we should go back to Osaka from Kyoto to transfer to Hiroshima? I think also that you are suggesting that no specifically pass is recommended for our travel from Osaka to Kyoto and Nara? I think we expect to walk a lot while in Kyoto.
Thank you!
Lora
