Hi.
I was wondering if anyone could help me with this trip between Sapporo and Tokyo.
I have searched options on Hyperdia, however due to the high amount of stations in Tokyo and the multiple transfers required, I'm uncertain as to whether the JR Pass can cover the whole journey.
The best options I have found take a minimum of 15 hrs from Sapporo (JR) to either Tokyo or Ueno station and require transfers onto different Ltd. Express trains (which I am assuming are covered by the pass?)
Are there any JR covered trains which require fewer transfers and maybe enable you to sleep on it as well?
The help is highly appreciated.
