Hi there,

Looking at your itinerary, I think it would make most sense to use a 7 day JR Pass for travel to Tokyo, Gala-Yuzawa and Gotemba. All together these are the routes that are most expensive and best traveled using a JR Pass. You can also use the JR Pass between Kyoto and Osaka and on the JR to Disneyland, or even for the trip to Haneda Airport.

The flow of the itinerary looks good and there is no unnecessary travel. There's also a lot of good stuff for childeren and I'm sure they'll love it.

Have a great trip!
Daniel
