I will be visiting Japan for 15 days ...
March 16 Arrive NRT Airport , Check in hotel in Shinjuku
March 17 to 21 Tokyo surrounding , NIkko, Hakone
March 21 to 22 Hakone to Takayama
March 22-24 Takayam/ Shirajawago/ Kanzawa/ Takayama
March 24 to 25 Takayama to Hiroshima
March 25 to 30 Hiroshima to Kyoto ---> side trip to Nara, Himeji ( if time permits)
March 31 Kyoto to NRT Airport
Is the above itinerary realistic ?
7 days or 14 days pass ?
How can I tweak the above itinerary flow if I were to buy the 7 days pass ?
Is it worth while to splurge on the Green Pass ? for above routes , are the trains/ rail equipped with Green Car ?
I am flexible with the itinerary flow.. I just want to mak sure I optimise my time in Japan, Your expert suggestions will be greatly appreciated
