Osaka-Kyoto-Tokyo-Takayama

Hi there,

There is not really a viable alternative rail route instead of the Tokaido Shinkansen to Nagoya. You could however just buy a one way ticket and use the Hokuriku Pass from there. I think that would simply make the most sense, considering the rest of the itinerary.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Hi Daniel-san,

Does it means i can't use JR 7 Days Pass for Nagoya to Takayama? I need to purchase separate ticket? I thought i can use it nationwide. I really wanted to visit Tokyo.

Come to think about it, I will have no chance to experience Japan's bullet train, if i use Hokuriku.

Sorry that I asked so many questions as I'm a little confuse on how the train system works in Japan. Anyway, thanking you in advance for the advise.

Cheers!

Hi again!

You can use the JR Pass from Nagoya - Takayama with the 7 day JR Pass.

However you can't if you only have a Hokuriku Pass.

Does that clear things up?

Hi Daniel-san,

Yes, i understand now. Will go with the JR 7 Days Pass.

Thanks again.
