First trip to Japan free & easy

Hi there!

That's a very detailed detailed itinerary and well thought out! I think that you will certainly enjoy your time there. As for the JR Pass, it will fit right in. You will make some good savings by traveling to Osaka and Hiroshima, just be sure to activate it on day 2 or 3 to be able to cover all your long distance travel with it.
The pass is usable for local travel in both Tokyo and Osaka and will be enough to cover most of both cities, the pass has also limited useability around Kyoto, you can for instance use it to travel to Fushimi Inari!

Looking at your itinerary, I think that it is already a great plan and don't have much to add. What you could visit in Kyoto is Arashiyama which is also reachable by JR. The Arashiyama area has lot's to offer, including a small money park.

Also when you are in Hiroshima, don't forget to visit the peace memorial museum. It's a piece of history not to be missed.

Enjoy Japan and have a good journey!
