I am arriving in Japan 30/11/2018 with my family
( two kids & my husband). I will stay in Japan till 09/12 ( flying back on 09/12)
Will stay in Tokyo till 05/12 and will go to Osaka on 06/12
The total number of days is 10
I am planning to buy 7 day rail passes for everyone?
Will I be able to manage, if I don’t use them first 2 days
Hi there,
It would be cheaper to just buy normal tickets if you only travel one way Tokyo - Osaka, a 7 day JR Pass stars making sense if you would do a return or would make a side trip to a different city like Hiroshima.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
Hi Daniel
I am coming back from Osaka to Narita on the 9th.
So it is good to buy the 7 day pass, right?
So if I buy 7 day pass and start using it after two days will it be ok?
I can buy normal tickets to go around Tokyo the first 2 days. Is this correct?
Jay
Hello Jay,
Yes, in that case a 7 day JR Pass would be great! Then just buy normal tickets for the first 2 days in Tokyo, or use a travel card like Suica.
Kind regards,
Daniel
Thank you
You are amazing
When do I order the cards, to travel in December?
