JR Pass or Regional Pass

Hi there,

I think a 7 day JR Pass for day 6-11 (or similar if you want to cover any of your day trips out of Tokyo) would be the best option. Then buy normal tickets for the days that you stay locally in Tokyo.

I definitely like the idea of 4 days Kyoto and 2 Osaka and think it will be time well spend. Tokyo is great but Osaka and Kyoto will just add so much more to your itinerary.

Within Tokyo, you can look at using local options like a Suica card or day passes for the Tokyo metro.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Ok i have decided to buy the 14 Day Railpass and also stay

28.03 - 02.04 Tokyo
02.04 - 07.04 Osaka
07.04 - 10.04 I dont know
10.04 - 11.04 Tokyo
12.04 flying back home

I will stay in Osaka and doing daytrips to Kyoto cuz its much cheaper than stay in kyoto and i Need a nightlife. From Osaka to Kyoto its only 30 mins. with Train so i think its ok to commute.
Maybe daytrips like this:

02.04 Travel to Osaka and in the afternoon / evening to Kobe
03.04 Kyoto
04.04 Kyoto or Nara
05.04 if not doing nara on 04.04 i will go there otherwise going to Hiroshima, Miyajima
06.04 Himeji, Okayama
07.04 Osaka

What do u think about this?

I think its ok to visit the Mt. Fuji spontaneous, depends on the weather. But now i Need a Station for the time 07.04 - 10.04. Do you have a Suggestion for me?

Thanks

Hi there,

Sound good to me if you want to enjoy some of Japan's nightlife. Don't underestimate Kyoto in that regard, Osaka is considered the place to be but there's plenty going on in Kyoto.

For idea's on Fuji, please see:
