Dear all,

we are currently planning our trip and would deeply appreciate any feedback concerning our planned trip. Moreover we used the railpass calculator and it seems that if we buy a 21 day ticket we would pay more than single tickets. Could that be correct?

Therefore we would appreciate any feedback if it would be better to buy single tickets or 14 day railpass or 21 day railpass and if our planning seems approporiate in terms of times and sights to see. Also we are deeply grateful for any alternative routes or planes.

Tokio March 17.-21
Kyoto March 21.-25.
Koya-san March 25.-27.
Osaka March 27.-30.
Kanazawa March 30 - April 1.
Shirakawa-go April 1 - April 2.
Takayama April 2.-4.
Yokohama April 4-.-6.
Flight back to Vienna April 6

Looking forward to your reply

Hi Anne,

I 21 day JR Pass would work, it would be usable every day of your visit to Japan. Note that travel to Koya-san and Shirakawa-go do need additional travel, other than that, all is covered.

The route you are traveling looks good to me and I do not see a way to improve it. Maybe an added day to Hiroshima and Miyajima would be nice but you'd have to remove a day elsewhere.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
