Hi,
I'm travelling with my partner to Japan in November and I just wanted to check that a 14 day JR pass is suitable for this 3 week itinerary (if we were to activate it on the 4th, when we leave Tokyo) or if any other ticket combination/pass is more economical?:
1st Nov Narita airport>Tokyo
4th Nov (activate rail pass?) Tokyo>Murodo on Tateyama Alpine Route
5th Nov Murodo>Kamikochi
9th Nov Kamikochi>Kyoto
13th Nov Kyoto>Naoshima Art Island
14th Nov Naoshima Art Island>Ominichi (cycling the Shimanami Kaido route and staying in Setoda)
15th Nov Setoda>Hiroshima
17th Nov Hiroshima>Kagoshima and ferry to Yakushima
21st Nov Flight from Yakushima to Haneda/Haneda>Tokyo
22nd Nov Tokyo>Narita airport
Many thanks for your advice and help!
Isabel
