Hi there, we will be arriving in Osaka aiport, spending 2 nights in Osaka and then wish to visit Hiroshima for 1 night, Kyoto for 4 nights to include Nara, Walk the Nakasendo between nakatsugawa and Narai, (3) visit Kanazawa (2) and Tokyo possibly heading out to walk mt matake too.(4) We have three weeks. Given we are staying in places for more than one night is the 3 week pass cost effective. Getting so confused! We also have an extra 5 days and thought we may fly to Ishigaki at the end from Tokyo. Would you have any recommendations as to the order we visit the places given rail connections or other places we should consider to fill the remaining 4/5 days please. Im not sure the 3 week pass is worth it but the 7 days passes would mean rushing to get everywhere.Thank you so much for any advice

Hi there,

Here are two recommendations for your itinerary:

1) A 14-day Nationwide JR Pass would be a convenient option if you are travelling Osaka - Hiroshima - Kyoto - Nara - Kanazawa - Tokyo within 14 days, as it eliminates the need to purchase individual tickets for each trip.

2) The Hokuriku Arch Pass allows you 7 consecutive days of travel on the Kyoto - Kanazawa - Tokyo route.

Ishigaki Island sounds wonderful! Our blog post here offers inspiration for other places you might like to visit in Japan.

I hope this helps!

Kind Regards,

Mariko
