Hi, can anyone advise me if I’m able to use the above pass to reserve seat for Shinkansen from Kanazawa to Tokyo? Do I have to pay for certain parts of the journey as I’ve heard that certain parts of the journey from Kanazawa to Tokyo is served by private train lines hence we can’t use the JR Pass?

If it’s really not usable for Kanazawa-Tokyo, where do you suggest I should I travel to from Takayama?

Hi there,

Yes, the JR Pass fully covers this route and you can even use the fastest Shinkansen directly between Tokyo - Kanazawa, this is the Kagayaki Shinkansen.

Kind regards,
Daniel
