Hi,

My plan is:
1. Arrive narita airport
2. Narita airport to Osaka (stay 3 days in osaka)
3. Osaka to Tokyo
4. Tokyo to Mt Fuji ( go to Fuji in the morning and return back to Tokyo at night)
5. Tokyo - Narita

I will buy JR pass because I will be stay in Japan for 8 days.
Do you think I should go to Tokyo first then go to Mt Fuji
or
Should I go to Mt Fuji directly from Osaka then at night, from Mt Fuji to Tokyo?

Thank you very much.

Hi there,

It is not that easy to swing by Fuji on your way from Osaka to Tokyo and I assume you'll be carrying luggage too.

My recommendation would be to visit Fuji as a day trip from Tokyo, this will make the route easier and overall much more enjoyable.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Thank your for your reply.
I will change my plan again.
I and my family (total: 4 people) will stay in Japan for 8 days
Day1: Arrive Narita airport in the morning - then go to Osaka
Day2: Osaka
Day3: Kyoto
Day4: Kyoto (Stay in Kyoto in the morning) then going to Tokyo around 3pm
Day5: Tokyo
Day6: Tokyo
Day7: Mt Fuji in the morning until around 6pm by to Tokyo.
Day8: Tokyo - Going to Narita Airport around 4pm.

I am thinking to buy JR 7 days pass for my family. However, for day number 8, the JR pass is expired.
Any ticket or pass recommendation for day number 8 when we only having lunch in Tokyo and we need ticket to go to the airport?
As we are travelling as a group of 4, do you think it might be cheaper if we catch the taxi? I mean catching taxi around Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo. NOT from airport to Osaka or Tokyo to airport.

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards,
Boni
