Hi,
My husband and I will be in Japan during the golden weekend (unintended mistake). We will be in Tokyo on April 25 for three nights, 2 nights at Fujioshida, Shimoyoshida Apr 28-30, 3 nights in Koyoto Apr 30-May3 and 4 nights at Saki May 3-May 6., hoping we can use the JR pass to travel to Osaka and Nara from Saki. We will take train back to Tokyo on May 7. Can we use the JR pass from Tokyo to Mt. Fuji area then to Kyoto and Sakai? I heard that it is hard to get train tickets during the golden week period, can you tell me, 1st should I get JR. pass for this trip and does it help to guarantee a seat if we buy the green (1st class) JR pass? Do you recommend us to buy JR pass and can you also tell us at the JR office in Narita airport will they help us to reserve all the seats that we need for this trip when we exchange for the pass.
Thanks, you help will be much appreciated.
Stressful
