A month in Autumn

Hello there,

Very nice trip for a month in Japan. Like the included visit to Hokkaido as well.

I think a 21 day JR Pass would work best starting from Oct 19th. This would cover all your Shinkansen and longer distance travel.

As for places to include, I think the selection of cities included is good, now it will be working on the details on what to do each day. This is mostly a personal thing of what you are interested in. My recommendation would be to make some small day trips as well. Such as Otaru from Sapporo, Kamakura from Tokyo and Nara or Koyasan from Kyoto.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Thanks Daniel-san,

I've been looking into the JR East-South Hokkaido pass with an eye to buy both and start the 21 days pass later so it covers travel until I leave. I think it would break even but I am not sure if I will get use out of it in Kyoto??

Thanks, Sabrina
