Hello,
I'll be visiting Tokyo, Kyoto and then Osaka before making my way back to Narita Airport for my flight home.
After studying the benefits and savings, I will definitely buy the 7-day JR Pass when I arrive at Narita Airport on 23 Feb 2016. My first use of it, I understand, would be the Narita Express to Shinagawa before transferring to the Shinkansen (Hikari or Tokaido Shinkansen?) for a journey to Kyoto. A few days later, I will take the special JR express train to Osaka (still covered by the JR Pass).
Now, on the return journey, could you please advise me what I should do? I will be staying around Osaka Station. Should I do the reverse of my earlier journey (Osaka by express train to Kyoto, then the Hikari or Tokaido Shinkansen to Shinagawa, and finally, the N'ex to Narita Airport?
Thank you for your attention and assistance in advance.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2016!
Best regards,
Speedy Teh
