Thank you in advance for your valuable advice again.
Is there a pass we should buy, which sections are best buying locally? Do we order our pass before leaving Australia?
The itinerary as follows:
Kansai airport to Osaka
Osaka to Kyoto
Kyoto to Nara
Nara to Hakone
Hakone to Tokyo and then airport
Any advice is much appreciated thank you.
Hi there,
For travel around Kansai, you could look at using a Kansai Area Pass or Kansai Area Wide Pass. These passes are delivered by e-mail, so you can order almost anywhere.
For travel to Hakone, it would be best to buy normal tickets.
Kind regards,
Daniel
That’s helpful thanks.
Nara to Hakone appears to be a difficult route. Any helpful advice on minimising how long it takes and the number of changes?
