Hello there,

I checked your itinerary for the best options and would suggest buying normal tickets for this itinerary. A JR Pass would be useful if you returned to Osaka from Tokyo but now normal ticket prices are below the price of a JR Pass.

All looks good for the rest. Love the detailed part of your visit in Kyoto, I also recommend visiting Goin after Nishiki Market, it's the famous Geisha district.

Btw you can also take a local train from Kyoto station to Fushimi Inari, this may be more pleasant than taking the bus.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
