We are 1st time visitors to Japan from the Philippines and we will spend 8 days next month.
We arrive at Narita Day 1 before lunch and leave via Nagoya airport Day 8.
We are staying 3 nights in Tokyo (with day trip in Mt. Fuji), 3 nights in Osaka (with day trips in Kyoto/Nara) and 1 night in Nagoya before we leave on Day 8 at night.
Do you think buying a JR pass is practical or it will be more expensive?
Also, I'm thinking of maybe just staying 2 nights in Osaka and add 1 night in Kyoto or do you think we can easily explore Kyoto from Osaka? We are just trying to minimize hotel transfers to be convenient with the baggage.
Help please.
Thanks.
