JRPass 7 or 14 days

Hi there,

You do plenty of travel, and both a 7-day and 14 day JR Pass would help you make good savings. Having said that, with some planning, the 7-day JR Pass + local tickets at the start would potentially cost less.

For example, travel to Hakone and Nikko can be done using different kinds of transports. With the JR Pass you can use the Shinkansen, which are the fastest (thus saving you time as well) but there are plenty of other options that cost less. Such as the Odakyu line to Hakone or Tobu-Nikko line, both take longer but are scenic rides.

In conclusion, get the 14-day JR Pass if you want the fastest and most convenient option and the 7-day JR Pass + normal tickets for the most cost efficient option and some fun and variety along the way.

Hope that helps :)
Daniel
