Hi, I would like to know which is the best way to travel from Tokyo to Kyoto, and then to Hakuba/Nagano. We'll be travelling from Tokyo to Kyoto on Feb 25, and to Nagano/Hakuba on March 1st. Then we'll stay in Hakuba for 10 days, and return to Tokyo. Is it worth it to buy a 7 day JR pass, for the Tokyo-Kyoto-Hakuba travel, and then a one way ticket from Hakuba to Tokyo?
Tokyo-Kyoto-Hakuba
Hi there,
Going to Hakuba via Shinkansen from Kyoto basically means going back to Tokyo and from there to Iiyama. A 7 day JR Pass would help you make savings if you travel this route.
You could then use an express bus from Hakuba back to Tokyo.
Enjoy Japan!

Thank you. Is there any special flavour of the JR Pass we should buy, or just order a regular one via the website? How long does shipping to Bulgaria take, and is there a version of the JR pass, which can be used via an Android phone?
Hi again :)
Do you prefer sweet, sour or spicy :) ? I think a vanilla pass would work just fine.
Shipping to Bulgaria takes just 2 business days.
There is no official app for the pass but you can use websites like Hyperdia to plan with your pass.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
Thanks, Daniel :)) :D I
