Hello,
I am trying to decide the best way to travel from Tokyo to Kyoto and back. I have considered using the Osaka-Tokyo Hokuriku Arch Pass but it doesn't look like bullet trains are available for the entire trip. I can not find the trip duration using the Osaka-Tokyo Hokuriku Arch Pass but would like to take a faster trip if possible and similarly priced.
Can you tell me the trip duration using this pass between Tokyo and Kyoto?
Thank you for your help.

Hello there,
The duration depends a bit on how long your transfer time is, either at Kanazawa or Tsuraga. JR West has opened a new section of Shinkansen between these stations making the travel time faster but I'd still reserve about 5 hours of time for the full trip.
Kind regards,
Daniel
