Hi,
I'm planning a trip to Japan from 10/02/16 to 23/02/16 and I'm thinking of Hokkaido and Osaka.
My flight arrives at Narita airport ETA1455, and I intend to get the JR pass for my travels to Hokkaido and back to Osaka.
The rough plan
10/02/16 ARR 1455, night train to Hokkaido
11/02/16 ARR Hokkaido
11/02/16-16/02/16 Hokkaido
17/02/16 train to Osaka
1) What do you think of the plan overall?
2) I've seen the plan to take a shinkansen to Shin-amori followed by the sleeper to Hokkaido, would I have time to drop by Tokyo city on day 1?
3) Do I need to reserve for the carpet sleeper train? or normal seats?
4) Would 6 days be sufficient for Hokkaido?
5) Where would you recommend for stopovers between Hokkaido and Osaka?
Thanks!
