Hi,
I confused with the "Kansai-Hokuriku Area Pass" and "Kansai Wide Area Pass".

Cause I found there are different with Okayama to Tottori.

The Kansai wide area pass seems like has the direct line to Tottori
from Okayama, and Kansai-Hokuriku Area pass has not.

Is that right?

My travel will include Kanazawa/Biwa Lake/Kobe/Tottori/Okayama, form Osaka or Kyoto.

Which pass I need to use?

  1. Takayama-Hokuriku Pass and Kansai Wide Area pass?
    or
  2. Only Kansai-Hokuriku Area Pass?

And

If I want go to Tottori from Okayama by using Kansai-Hokuriku Area pass, how long I need spent?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Caty,

Both passes indeed have different coverage areas, and the best option will depend on how many days you plan to spend in each area. I don't really know what you want to see/do/eat in each area. so I'd recommend making a list and then see how much time you'd need in each place.

Once you know that, it'd be easier to match it with a pass.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Thanks for your reply.

My plan is :
5/ 5 Osaka to Kanazawa, and stay overnight.
5/6 Kanazawa to Historic Villages of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama, stay overnight.
5/7 Historic Villages to Takayama, stay overnight.
5/8 Takayama to Lake Biwa , stay overnight.

5/9 Go to Arima-Onsen from Kyoto, and stay overnight in Okayama.
5/10 Go to Tottori from Okayama, and stay overnight in Okayama.
5/11 Stay in Okayama all day.
5/12 Back home from OKJ airport.

Which pass I should to use that will be better?

Takayama-Hokuriku Pass and Kansai Wide Area pass?
or
Only Kansai-Hokuriku Area Pass?

Thank a lot,.

Hi Caty,

I think you will be fine getting the 7-day Kansai-Hokuriku Area Pass. This will cover your train travel from 5/5 to 5/11 and make very good savings.

Note that the bus from Kanazawa - Shirakawago/Gokayama is not included.

Kind regards,
Daniel

I got it.

By the way, if I buy two pass, and the date will use on same day, ex: 5/9 use 「Takayama-Hokuriku Pass」 morning, and use 「Kansai Wide Area pass」afternoon, can I get two pass together on 5/4?

Thanks a lot
Jessie
