Travelling to Japan in Sept 2017 for 20

Hi there,

I do think a 7 day JR Pass would make sense if you make different day trips. The cost of a 7 day JR Pass is about the same as a normal return Tokyo - Osaka using the Shinkansen. You'll really get good value if you make any additional trips.

The JR Pass is valid on local JR lines in Osaka as well but not on other transport, such as the Osaka subway.

I would also recommend a visit to Hiroshima/Miyajima if you have the time.

Hope this helps,
Daniel
