sakura blooms for 2 weeks

Hi there,

I highly recommend getting familar with our JR MAP as you can see, the Tokaido / Sanyo Shinkansen line, that connect Tokyo to Hiroshima, Kyoto and even Hakone (Odawara station) on a single line that you can access with the JR Pass. A 7-day JR Pass is likely the best option for this route, together with a Hakone Free Pass.

Personally I love the extra quiet and confort that the railpass gives you, but it also depend on how much budget you have for the trip.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Yep I kind of understand that things are knowing that we don't have a ton of time. Is it worth saving the extra hour and a half I'm going on the fastest line from Tokyo to Hiroshima though that's not included in the JR pass.
Also, in terms of Hakone, should we get the free pass as well? Just for getting around that area
