Hello!

I am travelling to Japan in Dec, for 15 days. I've been reading about the transport but I get confused due to too many available options. I'm wondering if you could help advise with the below itinerary, will JR pass be sufficient or needed at all

10-Dec-2022 Osaka - Nara - Osaka
11-Dec-2022 Osaka - Kyoto
12-Dec-2022 Kyoto
13-Dec-2022 Kyoto
14-Dec-2022 Kyoto to Shirakawago
15-Dec-2022 Shirakawago - Takayama
16-Dec-2022 Takayama
17-Dec-2022 Takayama - Sapporo (via Nagoya)
18-Dec-2022 Saporo
19-Dec-2022 Saporo
20-Dec-2022 Saporo-Tokyo
21-Dec-2022 Tokyo
22-Dec-2022 Tokyo - Mt Fuji - Hakone - Tokyo
23-Dec-2022 Tokyo
24-Dec-2022 Tokyo - Vietnam

It would be great if you could recommend on the transport options

Hi there,

The JR Pass covers the majority of your travel, here is the additional travel that you will need.
- Shirakawa-go (Either the bus from Takayama or Kanazawa). - Fuji, depends on where you visit. See details here. - Vietnam: Airfare not included ;)

Kind regards,
Daniel
