To Whom It May Concern,
My husband and I will be traveling in Japan for just over three weeks. Could you please advise us on which train pass would be most suitable for the following itinerary?
October 16th to November 8th 2026
Sapporo to Aomori
Aomori to Akita
Akita to Yokohama
Yokohama to Kyoto
Kyoto to Osaka
Osaka to Kamakura
Kamakura to Tokyo
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,
Julia Duke
Hi Julia,
Your itinerary spans over three weeks, but if your long-distance travel falls within a 21-day window (for example, if you spend the first and last few days in the same region), the 21-day JR Pass would be a great option.
I hope this helps plan your trip!
Kind Regards,
Mariko
