Hello!
Could you please clarify:
What type of trains JR Pass covers exactly? I comprehend that it covers all JR trains, but I am interested in Shinkansen trains in particular, which are included in Pass (Sakura, Nozomi, etc.)
Is there any opportunity to get a Pass for Nozomi for 7 days?
We are going to get from Kyoto to Hiroshima, then Fukuoka, and from Fukuoka to Tokyo. Your advise what Pass we should choose (maybe one of regional JR Passes, but I doubt it) is highly appreciated.
Thank you!
Hi there,
1.) You will find the details on our Japan Rail Pass page. The JR Pass covers all Shinkansen lines, train service by the name of Nozomi/Mizuho are not included, all other are.
2.) There is no JR Pass for the Nozomi
3.) I would get a Japan Rail Pass, either 7 or 14 day JR Pass would work great for the trip you plan to travel.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
