Hi JR pass,
Here is our itinerary:
28th June arrive in Osaka,
1 July take JR train to Hakodate
7 July JR train from Sapporo to Tokyo.
My questions are:
1. can we purchase the JR pass over the JR ticket office in Japan?
2. from above itinerary, should we buy a 7 days pass or 14 days pass?
3. if we purchase 7 days pass, when does it take effect? can we activate on 1st July when we depart from Osaka, take JR train to Hakodate?
Thanks
Dorothy
Hi Dorothy,
1.) Yes but it will cost 10-20% more in Japan. You can order the JR Pass online here.
2.) A 7 day JR Pass, you would make good savings with this pass. Going all the way up to Sapporo and back down to Tokyo but you'd have to use it from July 1st - 7th.
3.) The JR Pass is counted in consecutive days (not hours) and the first day is counted as a full day, no matter what time you start using it. For example, starting the 7 day JR Pass on a Monday would mean that the last day of travel is the following Sunday.
Hope this helps,
Daniel
