Hi, i will need help in advising about japan rail pass to get for my trip.

I have 9 days for my trip, however the JR pass has choices only for 7 or 14 or 21 days.

Please advise how i can go about my cheap in the most affordable way with the train passes. I have a 8yr old child and an elder with me about 60yrs old. Will like to travel around in the shortest travel time than spending too long hours in the journey.

Day 1: - kansai airport to kyoto station
- kyoto station to Gion shijo station to visit Gion

Day 2: - kyoto station to Saga Arashiyama station
- Saga Arashiyama to Nara (kintetsu nara station)

Day 3: - Kyoto station to shijo station head to Nishiki market

  • kyoto station to Gotemba station (mount fuji stay)
  • taking fujikko bus to travel around mount fuji

Day 4: Gotemba station to Hakone (not sure how yo go about)
- spend a day in hakone (is there a need to get hakone free pass?)

  • return back to gotemba to our airbnb for the night

Day 5: Gotemba station to Osaka

Day 5 to Day 9: - visit dotonbori, shinsaibaishi, pokemon center, go kart, bic cam, kuromon market, america mura

Day 9: Osaka station to kansai airport

Hope you can advise me the suitable pass to get for my transport to move about based on my itinerary at the best arrangement, affordable, and leas travelling time.

Looking forward to your reply..

Thanks!

Hi Coral,

I checked your itinerary but could not find a pass that would be beneficial for your trip, as such I recommend just buying tickets as you travel. You can look at using a Hakone Free Pass for the Hakone area.

Kind regards,
Daniel
