Should I buy 7 days JR Pass?
Hi there,
For this itinerary I would advise buying normal train tickets. A 7 day JR Pass can be useful if you make a return Tokyo - Kyoto/Osaka using the Shinkansen (bullet train). In the above itinerary longer distance travel limited to a one way ticket.
All other travel is relatively local, for instance Kyoto, Nara and Osaka are all closely located in the Kansai region.
This is a very well planned itinerary btw :)
Hope this helps,
Daniel
Thank you so much😄
