Hi, I have bought the 1 week rail pass.
I will be in Japan 2 weeks so I am trying to optimize the day when I activate it.
My plan is to go from Tokyo to lake Kawagyuchio (without using the rail pass), then staying there until the 26, when I will go to Kyoto in the afternoon. My plan is then to do day trips fromKyoto, and use the rail pass for the rest of the vacation.
My questions:
• If I activate it on Nov 26th (morning) will it cover up to Dec 2nd (can I travelk the whole day of the 2nd?)
• Is there a JR office in Kawagyuchio where I can activate the JR pass, or should I already activate it when I am in Tokyo?
• Should I book trains in advance duyring this seasons? (Travelling alone)
Many thanks!
