Hi there,

I'm afraid the Narita Exchange office closes at 9:45pm. To reach the shibapark from Narita I recommend you use the Airport limousine bus from Narita, or make your way into Tokyo using the Narita Express.

Hi there,

Yes, you'll be fine to activate your JR Pass on the following day inside Tokyo. The JR Pass can be activated anytime within 3 months of the date of purchase.

Hope this helps!
