Which JR Pass should I get

Hi there,

A 7-day day Japan Rail Pass would be the best option here, when used from Day 5 to Day 11. All these trips can be done with the Shinkansen and will help you make very, very good savings!

On Day 5 to Hakone, you can use the JR Pass from Tokyo station to Odawara, and then use a Hakone Free Pass from there to explore Hakone. This will both help you save time & cash.

Alternatively, you could do one day later, and include a day trip to Nara/Kyoto. However, these routes don't cost much 500-800yen/one way, so my preference would be to go with the Shinkansen to Hakone.

I hope you find this useful,
Daniel

Thanks, Daniel for the quick reply!

Hi Daniel,

I got another question about the 7-day JR Rail Pass. Can we make an advance seat reservation from Tokyo to Osaka, as I know there is a restriction on carry-on luggage size? We have to book the last row to place the luggage behind the seat.

Thanks!

Best Regards,

Chris
